A U.S. military aircraft has crashed in the California desert within a week of an aviation accident. The MV-22B Osprey crashed in Imperial County near Highway 78 and the town of Glamis - 30 miles north of the Mexican border, and 150 miles east of San Diego. A Marine unit of five, including the pilot, are feared dead after their military aircraft crashed. The MV-22B Osprey is a tiltrotor aircraft, built by Boeing, which can carry 24 Marine combat troops. There have been eight Osprey crashes since the Pentagon made the aircraft operational in 2007. Wednesday’s crash added to at least 46 fatalities since the military began testing the aircraft, reported the Los Angeles Times citing crash records. Watch this video for more details.
