Search underway for missing F-35 fighter jet after pilot ejects during mishap

The U.S. military has asked the public for help in locating a missing F-35 fighter jet that went missing over South Carolina after the pilot ejected due to a "mishap." The pilot is in stable condition, but the circumstances surrounding the incident remain unclear. The jet's stealth technology and a malfunctioning transponder have made it difficult to locate. Authorities are focusing their search around Lake Moultrie and Lake Marion. The incident has attracted criticism, with some questioning how an advanced fighter jet could be lost and why it lacks a tracking device.
