Lost F-35 Jet Found in South Carolina After Marine Corps Calls 911

The pilot ejected safely, but the unmanned jet caused nearly $100 million in damages.

An F-35 fighter jet went missing over South Carolina in September after the pilot was ejected midflight due to a 'mishap'.
The US Marine Corps called 911 in an attempt to locate the missing jet, but initial efforts to find it were unsuccessful.
The pilot landed safely in a residential neighborhood in North Charleston and also called 911 for medical assistance.
The jet, which was on autopilot and had a malfunctioning transponder, was eventually found in a field north of Charleston, 75 miles from where the pilot landed.
The incident, which is still under investigation, caused nearly $100 million in damages.
