It's early, but it looks like an F-16 is down but the pilot got out. A U.S. F-16 fighter appears to have crashed into Yellow Sea waters off the coast of South Korea, stoking safety concerns after eight U.S. airmen were killed last month in the crash of an Osprey aircraft near a Japanese island.
The F-16 crashed into the sea Monday after taking off at about 9 a.m. from Gunsan, some 180 kilometers (110 miles) south of Seoul, Yonhap News Agency reported, citing sources it did not identify. The pilot ejected and was conscious after being rescued from the sea, it said.
U.S. Forces Korea did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The rest of the article drones on about the downed CV-22/ Osprey, since they had to fill column inches and are tasteless ghouls.
