SEAToday.com, Pasuruan-Dua pesawat militer jatuh di Desa Keduwung, Kecamatan Puspo, Kabupaten Pasuruan, Jawa Timur, pada hari Kamis (16/11). Dari video yang beredar di media sosial, terlihat puing-puing pesawat di sebuah lapangan dan bangkai pesawat terbakar di lereng bukit. Narasi yang menyertai video tersebut menyatakan bahwa pesawat yang diduga jet tempur tersebut jatuh saat latihan setelah menabrak tebing di daerah utara pegunungan Tengger.
Pesawat tersebut merupakan milik TNI Angkatan Udara yang berjenis EMB-314 Super Tucano. EMB-314 Super Tucano sejatinya merupakan pesawat latih lanjut yang berkemampuan COIN (Counter Insurgency) atau pesawat anti perang gerilya. Dari desainnya, pesawat ini sangat mendukung misi-misi pengintaian, close air support, dan penumpasan pemberontak.
Indonesia memiliki 16 pesawat EMB-314 Super Tucano yang dibeli Pemerintah Indonesia dari Brasil pada 2012 lalu yang di tempatkan di Skadron 21 Abd Malang. Armada baru ini bertugas menggantikan pesawat OV-10F Bronco yang kini telah di grounded karena usianya yang tua.
Hingga berita ini naik, belum ada informasi resmi mengenai jumlah korban jiwa dalam peristiwa ini.
