Marines have made two KC-130J Super Hercules flights to Maui to transport people and supplies in response to deadly wildfires on the island. The hefty Super Stallion transferred approximately 700 pounds of fuel to the Fire Scout. Four F-35C jets from California traversed the approximately 7,800 miles over the Pacific. The commanders are temporarily suspended, pending the outcome of an Air Force inspector general probe into military intelligence leaks. The helicopter part contained approximately 0.16 ounces of TNT. Several aircraft and ground equipment were damaged, according to the Naval Safety Command. Testimony in a command investigation questions the narrative that four Marines damaged the ride. The mishap occurred at Kadena Air Base in Okinawa, Japan. The incident caused “significant burn damage” and was designated as a Class A mishap. The bombers took off from the Royal Air Force base at Fairford, England, and flew over the eastern Mediterranean, the Arabian Peninsula and the Red Sea. Load More
