https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/15/politics/f-22-jet-crash-florida/index.html Hopefully the pilot is safe as preliminary says he is. Absolutely terrible news. I really wonder what could have happened. The last crash in 2012 was a wire igniting hydraulic fluid.
I just know we cannot spare F-22As or F-22A pilots. Last I heard he was recovering. Keep this up and there will be more Su-57s than F-22As, even if they are nowhere near as capable.
