F-22 Stealth Fighter Suffers “Mishap” AtĀ Savannah AirportĀ
Isn’t it remarkable that while the military-industrial complex, neoconservative warmongers, and radical leftists in the White House seem to push for further conflict in Eastern Europe without even a hint of suggesting peace negotiations with Russia, some of America’s mostĀ advanced military jets are unfitĀ for combat?
The latest example comes fromĀ Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport on Monday morning when aĀ Lockheed Martin F-22Ā stealth fighter jet assigned to the 71st Fighter Squadron, 1st Fighter Wing at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia,Ā suffered what the US military is calling a “mishap.”Ā
It was not immediately clear what happened, as the military would not elaborate on the “mishap” involving an in-flight emergency. However, one X user posted audio, allegedly from air traffic controllers atĀ Savannah, that reveals the stealth fighter had a “brake failure.”Ā
“BURNER34 (F-22) advising SAVANAH TOWER that they have a brake failure and requests another aircraft for a visual inspection which DEMON73 (F-16) performed. BURNER34 came in and successfully hooked the runways arresting gear wire,” X userĀ Thenewarea51 wrote in a post.Ā

The F-22 was conducting training exercises atĀ Sentry Savannah,Ā the Air National Guard’s largest fourth and fifth-generation counter-air, large-force exercise, held annually at the Air Dominance Center, Savannah Air National Guard Base, Georgia.Ā
Don’t evenĀ get us startedĀ with theĀ latest figuresĀ from the Government Accountability Office, which show that only 15% to 30% ofĀ Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II stealth fighters are ‘capable of combat.’Ā
