Two RAAF F-35A Lightning II stealth fighters killed Six RSAF F-15SG fighters in a single mock engagement during Exercise Pitch Black 2022

The fifth-generation fighters flew against dedicated opposing teams from many countries. Although the results of the mock air combats have not been revealed, according to International Military website Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) F-15SG pilot Major Arumugam Sivaraj who was part of the opposing team said that thanks to this exercise his side was able to gain experience. It was in fact revealed to the press that during one of his sorties he flew against RAAF F-35As and that the Lightning IIs were able to locate all aircraft belonging to the opposing force.

During one engagement the RAAF deployed 2 F-35As against 6 RSAF F-15SGs. RSAF Detachment Commander Colonel Mark Tan explained, that the RAAF joint strike fighters were able to find all its opponents in the air and then kill all the them before being detected by the opponents too.

ovde ima tekst o tome, kako su resili problem.
bile su patrone u pitanju kako je toni pisao, na kraju istrage nasli su samo 4 pokvarena.


It was during a routine inspection in April that an Air Force technician found a single faulty Cartridge Actuated Device in the ejection seat of an F-35 at Hill Air Force Base, Utah. The device — known colloquially as CAD — contained no magnesium powder, a necessary material for generating the explosive charge that allows a pilot to begin ejecting from an aircraft.
And in the end, only four defective cartridges were found: the initial issue discovered in the F-35A in April, two cartridges of the same part number discovered by Martin-Baker in its stock, and another faulty CAD found by the Air Force in a supply warehouse, according to officials from Martin-Baker, the Air Force and the F-35 JPO.
But despite the loss of flight hours and the massive bureaucratic burden on the military’s maintenance and logistics corps for a handful of bad CAD, officials told Breaking Defense that the system worked as it should to ensure the services avoided a potential tragedy.

Onaj gore je izgoreo 2016,a sada ima drugu namenu
F-35A that caught fire at Mountain Home AFB in 2016 converted into a CDDAR trainer
Citat:A first-of-its-kind, F-35 crash recovery course was held at Hill Air Force Base and twenty-nine maintainers had the opportunity to train on handling different scenarios using a real F-35A.
One of the scenarios in the five-day Crash Damaged or Disabled Aircraft Recovery course involved dealing with a collapsed nose gear, which will be destructive when done on a real jet. Instructors were able to use a repurposed F-35A for this type of training.
This F-35 training platform was severely damaged when it caught fire at Mountain Home Air Force Base in 2016. Deemed too expensive to restore, it had been stored at the Ogden Air Logistics Complex.
