The F35 was able to make an emergency landing in a gulf country. This one actually went down in Iran.

> emergency landing

I think it's ok to say that it crashed into the ground but the pilot survived.

With 'emergency landing' people assume it was just a rough landing whereas the plane here is completely and utterly broken.

		As an aviator, that right there counts as an emergency landing. A hard one. They limped it back home, they didn’t ditch a very sensitive airframe over enemy territory, I’d call that a win and the pilot deserves a medal for that.

I’m not sure a plane can be landed when the crew ejected.

		Assuming you're both referring to the events of 19 March, they did not eject from the F-35. I know of no event during this war where an F-35 crew ejected.
