According to a release earlier from the U.S. Navy, both a F/A-18E “Super Hornet” and tow tractor went overboard and were lost in the Red Sea earlier today, after the move crew lost control of the aircraft while it was actively under-tow in the hanger bay aboard the USS Harry S. Truman (CVN-75). All crew aboard the Truman have been accounted for, with one sailor suffering minor injuries during the incident. An investigation is underway.
