Yes you are correct

There is more and more chatter that the plane was found where you say it was in Williamsburg

The security of our homeland airspace demands that everything in the air is being tracked. Despite the stealth capability the plane certainly would have radio ID to be traveling in US airspace. Of course Chinese spy balloons can traverse the country unmolested

They ever find the plane that crashed carrying two nuclear weapons over NC?? I guess we were lucky this one wasn’t carrying two 3-4 megaton weapons.

On 17 September 2023, a pilot ejected from his F-35B over North Charleston, South Carolina following a “mishap” during a training flight out of MCAS Beaufort. While the pilot was unharmed, the fighter was lost for an extended period of time.[464][465] An announcement that the fighter’s wreckage was found was made in the evening of 18 September, 2023.[466]

The pilot has some explaining to do. The plane flew another 80 miles by itself.
