It was gathered that the pilots died after the aircraft, which was a trainer aircraft.
The pilots were in a training session when the incident happened at the NAF base in Kaduna.
Recall that the development comes 11 months after a NAF aircraft crashed in Kaduna. The incident, which occurred in May 2021, involved a Beechcraft 350, and the aircraft crashed around the Kaduna international airport.
The Chief of Army Staff, Ibrahim Attahiru, and 10 other military officers who were on board when the plane crashed were killed. Attahiru was said to be on his way to Kaduna to attend a passing-out parade for army recruits.
Following the incident, members of the minority caucus in the house of representatives had asked the Federal Government led by President Muhammadu Buhari to ensure that a “system-wide investigation” is conducted into such incidents involving military aircraft in the country.
