Aircraft accidents involving US Air Force aircraft
This is not a lousy airplane crash by the US Air Force. At the end of August, a Boeing MV-22B Osprey crashed on Melville Island during joint exercises between Australia and the Philippines. There were 23 servicemen on board. Three marines were killed and five others were hospitalized.
Later it became known that another plane crash occurred near Miramar Air Force Base in California. An American F-18 Hornet fighter-bomber crashed. The Pentagon did not disclose the number of casualties and injuries.
