An experimental US military GPS jamming exercise allegedly contributed to the fatal crash of a civilian medical evacuation aircraft in New Mexico in May, according to newly reported details. The twin-engine medevac flight, carrying two pilots and two medical workers, was travelling from Roswell to Ruidoso when it reportedly lost reliable navigation capability during an electronic warfare test near White Sands Missile Range before crashing into a mountainside, killing everyone on board.
While investigators have linked the military exercise to the incident, the findings remain subject to official scrutiny and not all details have been independently confirmed.
