🇰🇷 South Korean F-35 fighter crash landed on "belly" due to landing gear failure

The South Korean pilot had to accomplish almost a feat in an attempt to rescue the newest American stealth fighter, the F-35A, which had all of its landing gear failing at once. The car had to be planted on the fuselage. The Air Force of the Republic of Korea has suspended flights of all available F-35s pending clarification of the reasons for the emergency.

According to local media reports, the incident with the F-35A aircraft of the South Korean Air Force took place today at the air force base of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the city of Sosan, where the 20th combat flight formation is based. 

At 1251 hours local time, during a training flight, the pilot recorded a malfunction in the onboard electronics system of the F-35A fighter, as a result of which all the chassis failed.
