American U-2 spy plane crashed!!!

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A U.S. U-2 spy plane has crashed in southwest Asia, but the military has not disclosed the location of the crash or any of the circumstances.
The U.S. Air Force, in a short written statement, said the cause of the crash and the fate of the U-2 pilot was not known.

The U-2, a single-seat jet able to fly at high altitudes on surveillance missions, has been flown by the U.S. Air Force for over 50 years.

Officials said the plane went down Tuesday evening.

great....in all places ASIA! Now we're all f*cked for sure!

I think there are three threads going already about this. It was flying over Afghanistan, and crashed on landing in the UAE killing the pilot.

There are two other threads about this story already...

First off, knock off the profanity use, meshuggah1324, k?
Secondly, as pointed out, topic has been covered.

As such, thread closed.
