Smokin Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Apparently Korea needs to go read 11-214. There were very very few incidents over my career where I finished reading the safety report and thought 'no way would this be me even on my worst day.' This would probably be one of those exceptions. And "at least 8"? Strange config for a single F-16.
waveshaper Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Here's some additional info/video/etc: The two fighter jets mistakenly dropped their bombs outside the target area – the Seungjin Fire Training Field (AKA - Nightmare Range). https://www.twz.com/air/south-korean-f-16s-just-bombed-a-town-by-accident 1
TreeA10 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 (edited) I went round and round with a Korean ground FAC trying to talk me onto a target. He kept asking me to identify a Yankee in the road. I can't find anything remotely related to U.S. equipment. After numerous "Negative contact on the Yankee in the road", he comes back with "Yankee in road, you know, Y." So, important safety tip, if war breaks out in Korea, do not stand on a blidgee or a Y intersection. Edited March 7 by TreeA10 1

pbar Posted March 10 Posted March 10 https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/nation/2025/03/205_393831.html I wonder if the USAF would publish what went wrong this quickly. More like we would say it's under investigation for the next six months.
uninformed Posted March 11 Posted March 11 “All the responsibility for the accident lies with me, as the chief of staff." Something you would never hear said in the USAF.
