Israel says all F-35 fighters successfully passed tests and have no problems with ejection seats

A few days ago the U.S. landed almost all F-35 fighters due to ejection seats fault. Denmark stated that 2 planes out of 6 have an identical defect. The Israeli Air Force, on the other hand, did not find any problems.

What we know

Due to the information about ejection seats fault Israel also decided to test its fifth generation fighters F-35i Adir. Detailed instructions for the technical test were obtained from Lockheed Martin.

The manufacturer of F-35 recommends paying special attention to the squib, which is used to push the seat out of the cockpit. The Israeli Air Force said all fifth-generation fighters have been successfully tested and are on mission.

Lockheed Martin continues to monitor the situation. The company said it has contacted all F-35 aircraft operators both in the United States and outside the country and reported on ejection seats fault discovered.
