The F-35 has hit yet another snag. During a recent exercise at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho, US Air Force F-35A pilots set out to practice evading surface-to-air missiles. The exercise was a failure because the SAM radars on the ground could not even find the ultra-stealthy planes. The F-35's had to turn on their transponders in order for the SAM's to find them and complete the exercise. Amazing airctaft.
