A Navy pilot is safe after an F-35C fighter jet went down near Naval Air Station Lemoore in Southern California, causing a fiery crash and prompting a response from CAL Fire.

NAS Lemoore said “an aviation incident on the operations side of the installation” took place at around 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday. 

The jet crashed in a field near the intersection of South Dickenson Avenue and West Cadillac Ave and burst into flames, a California Highway Patrol report stated.

“We can confirm the pilot successfully ejected and is safe. There are no additional affected personnel,” NAS Lemoore confirmed via Facebook.

The crash caused a small grass fire spanning about ten acres, according to a CAL Fire incident report. It was completely contained by 8:32 p.m. local time.

Details surrounding what caused the crash were not immediately available.

NAS Lemoore is the Navy’s largest Master Jet Base and is home to more than a dozen squadrons – training and operational.
