A pilot of a £120 million F-35 fighter jet has told how he escaped death by ejecting seconds before it crashed into the sea off a Royal Navy warship.
Known only as Hux, the pilot said he landed on the deck "by a few feet" as he survived thanks to his quick thinking during the accident in November, 2021.
The plane malfunctioned on the runway of the UK’s flagship HMS Queen Elizabeth and footage showed it drop into the sea as it failed to take off.
