A Navy fighter jet “blew overboard” from the deck of the USS Harry S Truman aircraft carrier into the Mediterranean during bad weather.
The $67m F/A-18 Super Hornet, which is featured in the new Tom Cruise movie Top Gun: Maverick, can fly at speeds of up to 1,190mph and weighs 32,000 pounds, but that was still not heavy enough to prevent it from ending up in the ocean, the Navy says.
