A US Navy F-18 fighter jet and a tow tractor from the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman were lost while operating in the Red Sea, the Navy reported on Monday.
The incident occurred when the F/A-18E Super Hornet assigned to Strike Fighter Squadron 136 was actively under tow in the carrier's hangar bay. The Navy explained that the move crew lost control of the aircraft, resulting in both the fighter jet and the tow tractor falling overboard.
According to the US Navy's statement, all personnel are accounted for, with one sailor sustaining a minor injury during the incident. The sailors involved in towing the aircraft took immediate action to move clear before the aircraft fell overboard.
An investigation into the cause of the incident is currently underway. Despite the loss, the Navy assured that the Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group, which includes the aircraft carrier, the nine squadrons of Carrier Air Wing 1, three guided-missile destroyers of Destroyer Squadron 28, and the cruiser Gettysburg, remains fully mission capable.
The incident underscores the risks and challenges faced during operations in high-intensity environments such as the Red Sea, but the Navy emphasized that the strike group’s operational capabilities remain intact.
