The US military announced on the 20th that it is investigating the cause of the aircraft's problem with the crash of a US military Osprey transport aircraft off the coast of Yakushima, Kagoshima Prefecture, in November last year.
Last November, a U.S. Air Force Osprey transport plane crashed off the coast of Yakushima, Kagoshima Prefecture, killing all eight people on board.The U.S. military has so far announced that the initial investigation results indicate that a problem with the aircraft itself led to the accident. "There is a possibility that it was."
On the 20th, the U.S. Air Force issued a new statement saying, "The cause of the problem with the aircraft is not yet known. Engineering testing and analysis will be conducted to determine the cause as a critical part of the investigation." "We are currently conducting an investigation," he said, explaining that the investigation was ongoing.
However, he did not provide further details, such as which part of the aircraft was being investigated.
After the crash, the US military suspended all types of Ospreys it has deployed around the world since December last year, and has since begun a full-scale investigation by recovering the aircraft's wreckage and flight recorders. I'm letting you do it.
The statement on the 20th said, ``Once the accident investigation is complete, we will first directly brief the families of the deceased occupants before publishing the report. Our priority remains the safety of the occupants and mechanics.'' Therefore, we are urgently investigating the cause.
