U.S. Surveillance Plane Crash In Afghanistan Kills 3 Americans -- New York Daily News
It's unclear why the plane crashed but it reportedly was not shot down. The crash is the latest in what has been a deadly week for American airmen.
A U.S. military MC-12 plane crashed in eastern Afghanistan early Friday morning, killing three Americans.
The plane was not struck by enemy fire, a defense official told ABC News, though a cause of the crash has not been released.
“Two International Security Assistance Force service members and one ISAF civilian died following an aircraft mishap in eastern Afghanistan today,” a NATO spokesman said in a statement to the Daily News. “It is ISAF policy to defer casualty identification procedures to the relevant national authorities.”
The MC-12 is traditionally used as a surveillance airplane, ABC News reports. The aircraft has multiple cameras, allowing an onboard technician to analyze data from different areas in real time.
