Im not trying to be a smartass here and Ive never been to the Philippines but that video was a lot of looped film of the same airfields and some of it was so flat it could have been filmed in Kansas for all I know.
It was like a generic infomercial for marketing the F-35.
It felt like a whole lot of propaganda tbh.

Hope any dust up is over quick. "Just in time" for high failure parts in an intense air combat environment seems optimistic at best.

The military-industrial complex would never distort conflicts to their benefit.
