A US military aircraft worth 70 million US dollars has crashed into the Red Sea. This is the second time a US military aircraft has crashed into the Red Sea within the past month. This time too, the aircraft that crashed into the sea was from the US aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman. The carrier was sent to the Red Sea to participate in military operations against the armed group Houthis operating in Yemen. After the failure of the military operation carried out in the name of eliminating the Houthis, US President Donald Trump has decided to halt the operation. Bombing of Yemen has also been suspended.
US sources said that the aircraft that crashed from USS Truman was an F-18 military aircraft. The aircraft crashed while attempting to land on the carrier after participating in military operations. Although the two pilots in the aircraft suffered some injuries in the incident, their lives were not in danger. They were rescued by a military helicopter. The aircraft crashed due to a problem with the ‘wire’ or cable used for landing on the carrier’s runway.
On April 28, another military aircraft from USS Truman also crashed into the sea. That incident occurred while attempting to move an aircraft that was on the carrier’s hangar deck to another area. In that incident too, a US Navy personnel was injured. However, no one’s life was in danger. That was also an expensive F/A-18 military aircraft.
Despite the crashes of two military aircraft, analysts studying the situation believe that USS Truman’s military operations are not likely to come to an end. Along with that carrier, a large number of vessels and submarines from the US military’s strike group are operating, with the main operation of the group being to protect the Jews. The biggest supporter of the Jews is US President Donald Trump.”
