Watch: Moment two US fighter jets crash into each other at air show

Scary stuff

Videos have been circulating online showing the incident which happened on Sunday, during the second day of the Gunfighter Skies air show, 2 miles (3.2km) northwest of Idaho's Mountain Home Air Force Base.

The incident saw a large fire erupt with the base being put on lockdown, before reopening with the rest of the air show cancelled.

Fortunately, all four aircrew were able to eject from the aircraft, however, it is not clear if anyone was injured in the incident.

Video footage from the crash has been circulating online in the hours since the incident.

It can be seen below.

One video shows the two US Navy EA18-G jets flying in formation before losing separation as they come together and collide.

The incident saw an incredible moment where the planes were almost locked together one on top of the other, facilitated by the relatively low speed they were moving at.

As it becomes clear that both planes had lost control, small flashes are seen as the pilots ejected from the aircraft and their parachutes become visible.

An investigation into the incident is underway.

Mountain Air Force Base Gunfighters said in statement on Sunday: "The aircrew involved in the incident are in stable condition.

"Thank you to all our guests for your patience and compassion, which has allowed us to quickly and safely respond to the incident."

How much are fighter jets worth?

The jets which collided and were ultimately destroyed in the incident yesterday were worth a combined £100m as per the US Navy.

The US Navy EA18-G has a cost of $67m (£50.3m) per unit which is actually fairly cheap compared to other jets in the US ranks such as the F-22 Raptor which costs $143m (£107m).
