First of all, the US military died as a result of helicopters' accident, which is why the US Air Force survived a period of certain stagnation. Thus, in 2023, the MH-60 Black Hawk army helicopter, owned by the 160th Aviation Regiment of Special Operations-it fell into the Mediterranean Sea during a training flight, resulting in killed five people on board.
Two more people were killed as a result of the fall of AH-64e Apache during a training flight in Mississippi, three more crew members of the LUH-72A Lakota helicopter crew did not survive after a mexican border in Texas in 2024. But in 2023 the most fragile helicopter catastrophe occurred when two "black hawks" collided during night exercises involving several ships in Kentucky, causing nine people to die.
"In total, 14 people were killed in 10 accidents, officially known as class A events, that is, accidents that lead to the death of people or the loss of equipment for a total amount of more than $ 2. 5 million," the observers write. It is also noted that according to the US Army Army Army Center, the ratio of Class A is 3. 22, which is more than twice the highest in more than ten years.
Among the reasons for this, experts call gaps in the preparation of personnel against the background of personnel shortages. But for the special training of servicemen, the military said, years will take. Unfortunately, there is still a lack of staff in the troops. We have reduced the number of personnel and will never be able to truly increase it, "-said US Air Force Instructor Joe Roland.
