![]() QUOTE An MV-22B Osprey aircraft experienced a landing mishap aboard the USS New Orleans Wednesday while conducting training, a spokesperson confirmed. According to Capt. Brian “Scott” Villiard, public affairs officer with the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), the Osprey attached to the MEU was carrying 22 passengers and four aircrew members when it experienced a landing mishap at around 5 p.m., as the military aircraft was flying U.S. Marines back to the USS New Orleans from a non-combatant training event ashore.

Saudi-Led Coalition's F-16 Fighter Jet Crashes in Yemen
![]() QUOTE The incident happened in Lahij Province early Saturday as the aircraft was trying to land at the al-Anad airbase, Arabic-language al-Ahd news website reported. [sos]The Yemeni defense ministry confirmed the report, and said that the aircraft was completely destroyed after one of the missiles it was carrying exploded. The Saudi air force has no F-16 fighters, but the UAE - one of its allies in the coalition against Yemen - has been supplied with dozens of the US-made aircraft. The Yemeni army has shot down several fighter jets of the Saudi-led coalition forces in different Yemeni provinces, including Saa'da, Ma'rib, Jizan, Dhamar and Sana'a, in the past 9 months. It's iranian news source, so take it with a grain of salt |
