Reminds me of the time a jet's computer kept crashing on landing approach to the Dead Sea because it's below sea level and the computer couldn't handle negative altitudes.

is this supposed to be a dunk on the F35? Did you read the article?
- F35s dunk themselves
  
  oh sorry its a tankie instance I'll be on my way
  carry on
- Having a jet that makes headlines about how it "keeps crashing" is probably not a good thing lmao what
  
  you can actually look up how many have crashed and, you won't but if you do, please tell me how many crashed because the plane shat itself and how many crashed because of operator error
- I did, it names a bunch of incidents where parts shat themselves then says it's way over budget. An actual explanation is definitely missing from the article.

- I think op understands that. The meme is calling out people who assume the new J36 must be shit quality simply because it's Chinese made, when America's own f35 is itself extremely unreliable.
  OP's mention of boeing is simply pointing out another area of American manufacturing that is currently embroiled in it's own quality issues. Maybe the "China builds low quality" claim is out of date and needs to be retired.
  Hope that clears things up Langley.
  
  Yeah, got annoyed that a significant amount of Americans who talk about the J36 and bring up "Hur dur, what about tofu dreg construction?" or "Temu quality"
  
  That's why I put "And that's >WITHOUT< mentioning Boeing..."
