| [Khaama (Afghanistan)] The two fighter jets took off from the Madhya Pradesh air station of Gwalior, where an exercise occurred. A Sukhoi-30 and a Mirage 2000 collided on Saturday near Morena in Madhya Pradesh, killing one of the three pilots who suffered "fatal injuries", the official said. Whether a mid-air collision occurred or not will be determined by an Indian Ari Force court of inquiry. The Su-30 had two pilots during the crash, but the Mirage 2000 only had one. Both the fighter jets had taken off from the Gwalior Air Force base. Initial reports indicate that two of the pilots are secure, and "an Indian Ari Force (IAF) chopper reaching the third pilot soon," Sources said. The Chief of Air Staff said, "Two fighter aircraft of IAF were involved in an accident near Gwalior today. The aircraft was on a routine operational flying training mission. One of the three pilots involved sustained fatal injuries. An inquiry has been ordered to determine the cause of the accident," the Indian Air Force tweeted. |
