The aircraft, flown by the 552nd Air Control Wing, Tinker Air Force Base, Okla., is deployed to Nellis for Red Flag exercise 09-5 and was returning from a mission when the incident occurred. The 32-person crew safely evacuated the aircraft and the subsequent fire was quickly extinguished by Nellis emergency response forces.

The Air Force will convene a formal board to thoroughly investigate and determine the cause of the mishap.
