An Indian Air Force Sukhoi-30 MKI fighter aircraft crashed in Rajasthan’s Shivkar Kudla village in Barmer on Wednesday, ANI reported.
Both the pilots managed to eject safely.
The jet crashed during the routine sortie. The incident took place after hours after a Chetak helicopter of the Indian Air Force crash landed in Uttar Pradesh, moments after it took off from an airbase on the outskirts of Allahabad this morning. No casualties have been reported, defence officials said.
Last year, in September, a MiG-21 aircraft had crashed in the same area.
