The base acknowledged an \u201caircraft incident\u201d in a subsequent Facebook post, saying it took place two miles northwest of the installation which hosts a wing of F-15E Strike Eagles. Video posted to social media shows the Navy EA-18G Growler electronic warfare planes assigned to Electronic Warfare Squadron 129 (VAQ-129) appearing to crash together before the four service members ejected from their jets.

\u201cThe Mountain Home Air Show has been officially canceled. Please DO NOT travel to or attempt to access Mountain Home Air Force Base as a spectator, as the event will no longer be taking place,\u201d the Mountain Home, Idaho, Police Department posted to Facebook. \u201cWe understand many were looking forward to this event and appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Please help us spread the word by sharing this post.\u201d<\/p>\n

The four service members flying in the jets ejected safely with no injuries resulting from the incident, according to The Associated Press. There were two previous incidents at the show, Boise-area TV station KTVB reported: one involving a F-16 Fighting Falcon flown by the Thunderbirds in 2003, and a fatal glider crash in 2018.<\/p>\n

The EA-18G Growler primarily operates off U.S. Navy aircraft carriers and can use ALQ-99 jamming pods, the AGM-88 High-Speed Anti-Radiation Missile, and other electronic warfare equipment, according to a U.S. Navy Fact sheet.<\/p>\n

Mountain Home Air Force Base hosts the 366th Fighter Wing, which operates F-15E Strike Eagle multi-role fighters from the United States Air Force and the Republic of Singapore\u2019s Air Force. The 366th Fighter Wing did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation about the incident.<\/p>\n
