There are two people in the airplane. Could be an F-14 or F-18 2-seater. Both are twin engines planes

Exactly what I was thinking. Besides, F-14's are Navy aircraft thus I would of expected to see water beneath the aircraft instead of farmers field.

But I hear two people in the cockpit plus a bitchin' betty. So...

F-15E
F-14
2-seat F/A-18
F-16D

It is highly unlikely that a twin engine fighter plane with massive amounts of reserve thrust would have been brought down by a bird strike to one engine.

Not sure where to look to find out which planes are currently using british male flight computers.

But looking at the direction the bird was flying in, it comes in far right (our left) of the centerline of the fuselage. How many single engine jets fighters do we even have in service right now? The only prominent one that I can think of is the F-16, but its intake is centerline and beneath the fuselage

It's a single engine, dual seat aircraft. Flight computer's voice isn't an F16, so it's not an F16 trainer. That rules out most anything in the US inventory.

Flight computer voice and pilot accents seem to indicate british stock.

Bird strikes are bad sh|t - suck in a big one and start throwing turbine blades through engine casing and anything can happen - take out hydraulics, flight controls, fire, etc. I can't see the video from here, but it wouldn't suprise me all that much

Aircraft is a British T-1 Hawk. Single engine, dual seat, cheap as fsck (so they don't care too much about ditching it), pointy stick on the nose, British flight computer, engine intakes where the video suggests. It's a trainer.
