The Harrier attack aircraft crashed in the USA. Second Air Force disaster this week
On May 20, a military plane crashed in the United States. In North Carolina, near the city of Havelock, the AV-8B Harrier attack aircraft fell. The aircraft was in service with the second squadron of the US Marine Corps.
This information was reported by representatives of the US Armed Forces.
The pilot survived and managed to eject. Now he is in the medical center. Information about casualties among the local population at the crash site has not yet been received. It is not yet known whether the fallen attack aircraft caused any destruction on the ground.
At the moment, experts are finding out the reasons that caused the crash of a military aircraft.
This is not the first accident in the US Air Force that has occurred recently. Just a few days ago, on May 17, a similar incident happened in California. There crashed United States Air Force F-16 fighter. The accident occurred due to technical problems. The pilot, as in the latter case, remained alive. He just managed to eject. True, as a result of the crash of an airplane on a commercial building, two people who were there at that time were injured.
Such cases allow us to conclude that the US military poses a threat not only to potential opponents, but also to its own population.
