A fighter jet went missing while conducting tactical night operations on early Tuesday, March 4, the Philippine Air Force (PAF) said.
Based on PAF’s report, the FA-50 fighter jet lost contact with the other aircraft that was part of the mission. En route to Mactan, Cebu, the aircraft tried to re-establish contact with the missing jet.
Search operations are ongoing, the PAF said.
“Our primary concern is the safe return of our aircrew. We are hopeful of locating them and the aircraft soon, and ask you to join us in prayer during this critical time,” the PAF said in a statement.
