I think they made it so it is no longer fatal, but iirc it still exists. It has a few other issues as well
As an aside, the F35 has been around as a prototype or something or other for decades. When I was a kid, I had a little metal miniature that had YF35 emblazoned on it, I think symbolizing that it was a miniature prototype of a jet (which looked veeeeery similar to the F35 iirc); this was roughly 20 years ago.
Did they ever fix that issue where ejecting would snap the pilot's neck due to the helmet being too heavy?
