New Delhi: A MiG-29K aircraft of the Indian Navy crashed into the sea off the Goa coast on Wednesday.
The pilot ejected safely and was rescued, the Navy said in a statement.
The fighter jet was on a routine sortie when it developed technical snag, according to reports. A board of inquiry (BoI) has been ordered to investigate the cause of the crash. It is the fourth accident involving the MiG-29K since 2019.
The MiG-29K is fitted with the Russian-built K-36D-3.5 ejection seat, considered the most sophisticated in the world.
