On January 28, an F-35 crashed at Eielson AFB in Alaska. The jet and pilot belonged to the 354th Fighter Wing stationed there. The base issued a press release stating the crash resulted in “significant aircraft damage”. From the video, I would say that is an understatement.
Watch the video which was posted to Facebook HERE.
It is good to see that the pilot ejected, but the press release did not give any info on the pilot's condition.

Understatement indeed, but glad to see that parachute!
