No sabotage was immediately established, but the Vietnam News Agency, said, the plane, a Russian-made Sukhoi SU-22 belonging to the People’s Army of Vietnam air force, arrived at the training session around midday before crashing at a military airport in mountainous Yen Bai province.
“The pilot was ordered to parachute out of the jet but he tried to save the plane… and he died,” a news report by Vietnam News Agency said, without stating the cause of the crash.
