Not yet, but I am guessing a flight control problem. That is one of two problems that you would ground the fleet. It would also explain why the plane went some distance after the ejection.
They aren't grounding the fleet, it's a safety stand down. They just review safety procedures and any other issue that may have contributed. Largely they are a waste of time but common after an accident.
You are correct, but usually it takes more than one accident for a fleet wide safety stand down instead of a squadron stand down. The lack of any info makes me suspicious.
The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is an American family of single-seat, single-engine, all-weather stealth multirole combat aircraft that is intended to perform both air superiority and strike missions. It is also able to provide electronic warfare and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities.
The only thing AI might do in the ejection sequence is to stop ejection until the a/c in in a position to eject, this is to stop the pilot ejecting while at low level in an inverted position. But AI isn't needed for this.
Putting AI into being responsible for ejection is just dumb, murphies law says so. Eliminate Murphies.
Any information on WHY the pilot ejected? (I mean wtf was the "mishap"?)
Wouldn't the chute and survival kit be on his person, not with the jet?

Or are we in a place where there's new way to do hijackings now?
What if the F35B STOVL was skyjacked using MASINT/ELINT collected by the balloon and landed on a modified trawler out at sea waiting for it?
Info on the plane...

*electronic warfare.
Yea except it's location beacon as they couldn't find it.
Grounding all planes? Some shit’s about to go down
Stealth tech.
Hacked?
