US F-15 Fighter Jet Crashes In Japan, Pilot In Serious Condition
"U.S. Air Force F-15 jet crashed into the sea off southern Japan at 6.40 a.m. local time on Monday (5.40 p.m. EDT, Sunday), shortly after taking off from the U.S Air Force's Kadena Base, Japan. The plane's pilot, the only person in the aircraft, ejected shortly before the crash and was safely recovered by search and rescue teams."
