An F-22 Raptor crashed in Alaska on November 16 . The search an saving crews think they found the wreckage yesterday , but there ’s no sign of the airplane pilot . According to the USAF ’s Colonel Jack McMullen , he may have a hazard at survival :
They have survival gear . He ’s Arctic trained to subsist in that surroundings . He ’s develop the gear on . He ’s incur stuff in his survival kit , so that he could crouch himself down and defend the extreme cold .
The conditions in Alaska is really regretful at this moment , but the hunting for the pilot is dynamic .
The F-22 belonged to the the 3rd Wing at Elmendor Air Force Base , Alaska . The plane finished its training run with another F-22 one hundred miles north of the understructure . At 7:40pm , F-22 drop of the radio detection and ranging , losing communication . According to McMullen :
The other pilot ( Rocky One ) went to a tank driver , got accelerator pedal and then continued to look for the misadventure pilot . He could not notice him . At that time , the Alaska Air National Guard beat a C-130 and rescue helicopters . They searched the entire night .
They have now found the $ 143 - million fighter wreckage , but the pilot film ( Rocky Three ) is nowhere to be found . Hopefully , they will locate and rescue him before long . [ Associated Press — Photo by U.S. Air Force photo / Senior Airman Garrett Hothan ]
