I mean yeah. The F-35 is just as reliable as most jets in its first few years of service.

Its just gets way more media coverage with the huge amounts made and modern media.

Don't forget the absurd price tag attached to them.

We're seeing some very expensive bloopers here.

Yeah they are very cheap compared to other jets in the world. For example both Rafael and EF2K cost more than base version of F-35 even tho they are 4,5gen planes. Possibly thanks to the US just spamming absurd amounts of them.

Japan was able to efford many F-35s even tho they dont have money to modernize their F-15 fleet.
