Report: Russian fighter jet crashes off Syria’s coast
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA Russian fighter plane crashed into the waters off the coast from Syria soon after taking off from its aircraft carrier on Sunday, US officials tell Fox News.
Three MiG-29 jets had taken off from the Admiral Kuznetsov, a Soviet-era carrier. Soon after getting airborne, one of the planes apparently experienced mechanical difficulties and hit the water.
The pilot bailed out of the plane and was later picked up by a Russian rescue helicopter. It’s not clear what condition he is in, the US officials say.
