A pair of A-10 Thunderbolt II ground-attack aircraft crashed Wednesday night in Nevada, but both pilots safely ejected, the Air Force said.

 

The A-10C jets, known as Warthogs, from the 57th Wing were on a routine training mission when they went down around 8 p.m. at the Nevada Test and Training Range, according to a release from the service.

 

"Both pilots ejected safely and are being evaluated at the Mike O'Callaghan Military Medical Center at Nellis," the release states.

 

It wasn't immediately clear whether the planes collided; the cause of the crash remains under investigation.

 

I'm glad the pilots are ok. They ejected, thanks to Aces II.

A-10 is my favorite aircraft of all time, and this makes me really sad. :(
