An F-15 fighter from the Missouri Air National Guard’s 131st Fighter Wing at Lambert Field in St. Louis crashed yesterday in the Military Operating Area near Terre Haute, Ind. The pilot ejected safely, and there were no injuries. The Courier-Press reports that the Indiana ANG had sent a team to the crash site, which was south of Vincennes near the Illinois state line. The pilot was on a training mission as part of a four-ship formation.
A prototype aircraft tug being tested out at Holloman Air Force Base, N.M. could save MQ-9 Reaper maintainers time and money and cut down on safety risks on the flightline.
