    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
