An Indian Air Force Sukhoi SU-30 MKI fighter jet crashed in Assam’s Karbi Anglong area on Thursday evening, killing both pilots on board. The aircraft had taken off from the Jorhat Air Force base and lost contact with ground control at 7:42 p.m. local time. Later that night, the Air Force confirmed through its official X handle that the wreckage was found about 60 kilometers from Jorhat.
The deceased pilots were identified as Squadron Leader Anuj and Flight Lieutenant Purvesh Durgakar. The Indian Air Force has not yet clarified the cause of the crash. The incident adds to previous accidents involving the same aircraft model, including a 2017 crash after takeoff from Tezpur Air Force base in Assam, which also resulted in the deaths of two pilots.
Investigations are expected to determine the technical or operational reasons behind the latest crash, though no official explanation has been provided so far.
