I agree, buf why is it not "default off but in the case the pilot is doing impromptu skydiving and the plane currently on the way to becoming acquainted with the ground, give us a little update"

You know most aircraft, when shot down, were traveling over enemy territory right?

Airplanes don't get shot down over friendly territory.

Except this one, apparently...

[–] Bene7rddso@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If the aircraft is already without pilot and will crash soon what can the enemy do? shoot it down?

Steal it, study it, make copies of it.

The F35 is the result of Billions of research and development dollars. And the adversaries we have (ie: China) are very, very good at copying technology.
