In the United States, two Black Hawk helicopters fell as a result of the collision

In the United States of America, an emergency occurred in the sky over the state of Kentucky. The governor of the state says that two military helicopters collided in the air. Both rotorcraft performed a training flight.

As it became known, we are talking about Black Hawk helicopters of the US Army.

The press officer of the Fort Campbell military base, to which the helicopters are assigned, says that the fate of the crew is still unclear. At the same time, the governor of Kentucky said that "most likely, the crew members died."

According to some reports, there was a pilot error. The helicopters approached each other, and one of them touched the blade of the other. As a result, the helicopters began to fall. At the same time, there is no information about the specific height from which the helicopters fell.

Search and rescue operations are underway in the crash area. Army units are involved, as well as Kentucky rescuers.

After some time, a release was distributed at the military base, which states that the command is focused on caring for helping family members of military personnel. This may be evidence that the crew members of the helicopters were killed.

The helicopters belonged to the 101st Airborne Division, known as the "Screaming Eagles".

        Yes, this is an occasion to gloat to our enemies. Minus you from me. They are enemies and the more they die, the better.

        PS. Well, we have not declared a war with the striped and the West, but still a war. They openly say that we need to be destroyed. So it's never peaceful time.

          Heal comrade, the gloating of death in peacetime, an indicator of the backwardness of society. As far as I know, their people do not gloat over the death of our people.

            Striped warriors are not civilians. Let them die. The bigger, the better. It would be perfect if they all died at once

            Are you sure that there are no instructors from the 101st division of the White Eagles in Ukraine? And you are sure that there is no blood of our soldiers on the hands of the dead. Moreover, 1 battalion of the White Eagles is in Romania. And you know what rotation is. So that calm down, comrade NOMADE, the defender of American thugs. I read the American press, especially the comments, rejoice at our every death. For many in the USA, we are subhuman.

              Thanks for the reminder - I read it as a child. Sorry, I didn't see the link.
              In a particular case, it’s sad for relatives, but I don’t consider it possible to rejoice at the death of servicemen, even strangers. Just as I do not consider it possible to condemn servicemen for serving their country, it is not right to condemn anyone for serving their country. Radicals, outcasts, ideologists, mercenaries do not belong to this list.
              In a word, I repeat: relatives are sad, but do not gloat. But scrap metal is ... and figs with them

        To the loss of civilians, yes, but if it’s the military, it doesn’t matter to me personally under what circumstances they died, the main thing is that they died, and the main thing is that the American military should die as many as possible ...

        People died - bad. But where was the 101st Airborne Division "Screaming Eagles" deployed? And, I would like to remind you what the military personnel themselves said, not the command, namely the personnel? They declared that if there was an order, if they went on a campaign again, then they would butcher the Russians, destroy them ...
        Minus two crews, perhaps fewer tactical troops will be landed, which means that perhaps one of ours will not die.
        In addition, the Americans like to declare the lack of professionalism of our pilots ... Yes

        Uh, there are non-military (peaceful in your opinion) losses and losses in peacetime DIFFERENT THINGS.
        Our time is not peaceful, we have a proxy war with the United States and each of their destroyed apparatus and crew is good

        And about peaceful people is not the topic at all. How can civilians end up in Apache?

        He did not say that he was glad for the loss of life.
        And the loss of two combat helicopters of the enemy is certainly not forbidden to rejoice.
        The bigger, the better.
        Maybe the desire to supply equipment to the LBS will moderate a little.

    known as the "Screaming Eagles".
    Are these the ones that the United States sent to Romania to contain Russia? And from catastrophes in the air, no one is immune. Something that is heavier than air and flies can always fall for various reasons.

    Kapets, you are turning into a site for patriots. Before, it was interesting to read, to participate in discussions, there were serious works, articles. But in the last 3-4 years, everything has slid down to cheers / leavened patriots, all sorts of "mikhans", and for the most part to low-grade articles (a la zen and all sorts of sheep).

      Times have changed, what can you do. A couple of years ago, few people believed in war. Today, the so-called "cheers-patriots" you call are people who, at least, are not indifferent to Russia. Well, they do not wish the enemy health, at least.

    And yes, about the "dances on the bones."
    Is it good that the crews died? Yes OK.
    Nothing personal. it's just a matter of military parity.
    However, we should not forget the stingers in Afghanistan, and the "mysterious" death of the nuclear submarine "Kursk". As well as the fact that throughout history the Anglo-Saxons spoiled Russia.
    And if you look at who benefited from WWII, it is obvious that Germany is only a performer, a US customer.
    Therefore, no matter how good and nice individual representatives of this state are, it doesn’t matter if they are military or civilian, the more they go to another world, the better.

      You have some special "eyes": what is not obvious and causes serious controversy and discussion is "obvious" with you. According to the results of WWII, the United States is the absolute beneficiary, but this does not mean "war orderer" at all ... It means "winner in the war", no matter how insulting it is for us!

        Like everything is accidental, Germany crushed by "Versailles" like this suddenly "suddenly" restores military power. And the United States "unexpectedly" for itself is emerging from the crisis, and even in a big plus after the war. lol

    It is a pity that most likely they flew empty if it was a training flight.
