I like this bit, taken from the report..

" A recurring occurrence in all three mishaps was that the nose of the F-16s appeared to take the brunt of the damage."

Astute bit of observation and reporting there then....fancy this being the case with the proximity of the nose u/c to, erm, the nose and radome !
