April 15, 2008 (by Lieven Dewitte) - Two soldiers in a sport utility vehicle had the scare of their live when an F-16 fighter jet from Hill Air Force Base opened fire on their SUV at the Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR).

The incident occurred during a nighttime training mission April 8 in which the fighter pilot was practicing shooting at ground targets.

A Hill Air Force Base spokeswoman says the soldiers were not hit, but did suffer minor injuries "while exiting the vehicle in rough terrain,"

The sport utility vehicle, a rental from Avis, was in part of the range where the Air Force uses live ammunition in mock combat. Lt. Beth Woodward says it was not clear whether the soldiers were supposed to be in the area when the pilot fired.

Air Force investigators have closed part of the range as they investigate the incident.

An investigation board, headed by 388th Fighter Wing Commander Scott Dennis, will determine whether the soldiers were in the wrong area of the range or whether the fighter pilot targeted the wrong vehicle.

The soldiers were part of a Joint Terminal Attack Control unit from Fort Lewis, Wash., training to identify enemy targets and direct U.S. aircraft to fire on them.

Da je vulkan, ne bi mnogo ostalo od ovog vozila

I ja mislim da je F-16 pucao sa M61 Vulcan. @Maradic da ga nisi pomešao sa GAU-8/A Avenger, topa od 30mm sa aviona A-10? Da je pucano sa tim topom, onda verovatno ne bi ostalo ništa od ovog terenca.

Jeste, Vulcan, pobrko sam loncice
