Permalink US warplane crashes in eastern Libya

A US warplane has crashed in eastern Libya, following an apparent "mechanical failure," the US military has said. It said there was no indication the F-15E Eagle had been brought down by hostile fire. Both crew members ejected and are now safe. The plane went down near the rebel stronghold of Benghazi after a third night of allied air strikes against Col Muammar Gaddafi's forces. The coalition is enforcing a UN resolution to protect civilians. The US military would not give the exact location where the F-15E Eagle came down, but said both crewmen suffered only minor injuries after ejecting. The aircraft was based in England and was operating out of Italy's Aviano air base.
