Following the tragic crash of an American Airlines commuter jet and an Army UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter, which resulted in 67 fatalities, investigators are examining potential factors contributing to the disaster. A key question under investigation is whether the military aircrew was utilizing night-vision goggles at the time of the collision. While they were confirmed to be engaging in required night training and possessed the goggles, it remains unclear whether they were actively being used during the critical moments leading up to the crash.
Investigators are focusing on whether the Army helicopter crew was using night-vision goggles during the collision that killed 67, as its use is standard for military pilots.
Pete Hegseth confirmed that the Army crew was undertaking a required night training mission and possessed night-vision goggles, but did not clarify if they were in use during the crash.
