A terrifying accident occurred at the “Gunfighter Skies” air show held at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho, USA. Two US Navy Boeing EA-18G Growler fighter jets collide mid-air during an air show on Sunday, May 17, 2026. Footage shot by onlookers shows the two aircraft colliding, then spin together before crashing to the ground in a massive explosion.

All four crew members ejected safely and were found unharmed, according to US authorities. The accident occurred during a demonstration by the aerobatic team 'Vikings' of the VAQ-129 squadron, based on Whidbey Island. After the crash, the air show was immediately canceled and an investigation was launched to determine the exact cause of the crash.
