US Military Seeks Help from South Carolina Residents to Locate Missing Advanced Fighter Jet

The US Army has requested assistance from residents in South Carolina to locate an advanced "F-35" fighter jet after it crashed on Sunday.

Military authorities reported that the pilot was forced to eject from this fifth-generation fighter equipped with radar-evading technology due to an "incident." 

The value of the aircraft, manufactured by Lockheed Martin, is approximately $80 million. 

While the pilot survived, the military was unable to locate the aircraft, prompting the Charleston Air Force Base to seek the assistance of local residents.
