This is reported by RIA Novosti with reference to a representative of the base.

“The landing gear of the F-35A Lightning II, assigned to the 388th fighter wing, broke today after landing on the runway after a planned training flight,” he said.

The representative of the air base added that the pilot was sent for a routine medical examination.

Due to the incident, the runway is temporarily closed.

Earlier in Iraq, the US military transport aircraft S-130 rolled out of the runway, resulting in four injuries.
