Israeli Air Force
Watch Black Hawk Helicopter Crash
Published
Looks like the Israeli Air Force is down a Black Hawk helicopter … because one of their choppers fell from the sky and crashed while being airlifted … and it’s all on video.
Footage shows another, larger helicopter towing an IAF UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter through the air when the harnesses appear to suddenly fail … sending the Black Hawk into a nosedive before it crashes to the ground.

The incident reportedly happened Friday morning near a residential area in Gush Etzion — outside Jerusalem — but the Israel Defense Forces says there were no casualties.
Unclear what caused the towing harnesses to fail … Israel Air Force commander Maj.-Gen. Tomer Bar has ordered an investigation.

The helicopter was being towed after making an emergency landing Tuesday … sounds like it’s been a rough week for this particular Black Hawk.
