A military aircraft crashed Tuesday near the Albuquerque International Sunport.
âCurrently, numerous emergency crews are on the scene after a military F-35 fighter jet crashed at or near Albuquerque International Airport, causing a huge explosion with dust rising into the air. My self-witnessed this crash after noticing a large fireball and black smoke rising in the sky, followed by dozens of emergency vehicles heading to the scene immediately I know something wasnât right,â Rawsalerts wrote.
âLocal media are reporting that the F-35 fighter jet appeared to have issues shortly after takeoff, but there is no official word yet on what caused the crash. The pilot reportedly ejected and is being treated for possible injuries,â the post added.
âI was casually relaxing and looking out my window when, next thing I know, an F-35 fighter jet crashes as we were on the runway waiting to take off,â Rawsalerts noted.
