Two missing U.S. Navy aviators have been declared dead following a crash during a training flight near Mount Rainier, Washington, the Navy confirmed on Sunday. The aircraft, an EA-18G Growler from Electronic Attack Squadron 130 (“Zappers”), went down last Tuesday in a remote, wooded area roughly 6,000 feet up, east of the mountain.
Commander Timothy Warburton expressed deep sorrow, stating, “Our focus is now on supporting the families of our fallen aviators and ensuring the well-being of our sailors.” After days of coordinated search efforts by the Navy, Army Special Forces, and local law enforcement, the crash site was discovered Thursday, and teams reached it Friday.
