The entire first paragraph is BS. He didn’t eject because of weather. His job, once he punches is to take care of himself, not track where the airplane goes down. The crash survivable flight data recorder in the aircraft should be sending pings as to its location.
If I’m writing design requirements for the F-35, I’m pretty sure I don’t include pingers to alert the enemy as to where the craft went down.
The article contradicts the headline. But the clicks are probably really good.
