      Yes it did, over Lebanon, which had Russian S200 air defense systems at the time. Also it has operated over Iran for over a month now.

      Pointing to one indecent where a F-35 stupidly flew low directly over a guy with a manpad isn’t a very good criticism over the aircraft’s capabilities.
