The US military is appealing to the public to help find an advanced F-35 fighter jet that has gone missing over South Carolina.

This is strange. It almost makes me think the scenario was an elaborate ruse to capture an F-35:

get an inside man to mess with the avionics

including turning off location telemetry

simulate a failure that requires an ejection

fly the plane into the ocean using autopilot

recover via submarine
