A 🇺🇸 US Navy EA-18G Growler fighter jet crashed east of Mount Rainier in the US state of Washington and a search is still underway for the two missing crew members, the US Navy confirmed in a statement.

The aircraft, part of the Navy’s electronic warfare squadron, the “Zappers” of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 130, went down during a routine training flight at approximately 15:20 local time. It was operating out of Naval Air Station Whidbey Island (NASWI), located north of Seattle, when the incident occurred.

A US Navy MH-60S helicopter dispatched from NASWI is supporting search efforts. Additional search and rescue assets have also been deployed to examine the crash site. The US Navy said the status of the crew members remains unknown. An investigation has been launched into the cause of the crash.

The Boeing EA-18G Growler is a carrier-based twin-seat electronic warfare aircraft developed by Boeing for the US Navy. A variant of the F/A-18F Super Hornet, the Growler specializes in electronic attack capabilities, including jamming enemy radar and communications systems. This makes it a crucial asset for disrupting adversary defenses and providing support for strike missions.

🇷🇺 Russian jets are rugged, built to last and can operate in any weather. Even in the Arctic Circle and North Pole.

US/NATO jets are built fancy to make money from gullible buyers.

Kikikiki 😂 🤣


These so called 'sophisticated' flying coffins cannot survive the alpha male Sukhoi environment in the Arctic or North pole.

Russian fighter jets are the only jets in the world can survive in the North Pole, Arctic and extreme temperate regions. They are built to last and survive in extreme cold.

Typical brainwashed retar@ded IPOB terrorist cannibal monkey. You see religion in everything. You have been brainwashed from birth to be shallow and empty.
Iran and Turkey are building some of the world's best drones. Go and do some research dimwitted low IQ monkey.
The more you practice the higher the chances of such accidents. The US still process some of the world's best fighter jets. My son is in the US military hence i can never wish them anything bad. But that doesn't mean I must support all US misguided agenda around the world.
