The USS Harry S. Truman lost an F/A-18E Super Hornet fighter jet while towing it in the Red Sea, resulting in the aircraft slipping off the hangar deck on Monday. The crew members evacuated safely with one minor injury reported, and an investigation is underway. The Truman, which has been deployed for military operations against Houthi rebels, remains fully mission capable despite this incident and a previous collision in February.
