A US Navy helicopter and fighter jet crashed in two separate incidents in the South China Sea.

This was reported by the US Pacific Fleet on its page on the social network X.

It is known that at 14:45 local time, a US Navy MH-60R Sea Hawk helicopter crashed.

This happened in the waters of the South China Sea during routine operations from the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier.
