Details remain extremely limited at this time, but there are reports from
Japanese media outlets stating that one of the Japan Air Self Defense Force's
F-35As has gone missing during an evening training mission off Northern Japan.
A search effort is supposedly now underway.
Reports state that the F-35 went missing at around 7:30pm local time on the 9th
of April, 2019. The aircraft had taken off from Misawa Air Base and was around
85 miles east of that location, over the Pacific Ocean, when it disappeared
from Japan's tracking systems.
That's what we have as of now and keep in mind that these are media reports,
not official statements. So, these details could change dramatically in the
coming hours.
Let's hope they do.
