VIDEO: US Made Malaysian FA-18 Jet Crashes | Jet Turns To Fireball Moments After Take-off

A dramatic accident has rocked the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) as one of its US-made F/A-18D Hornet fighter jets crashed during a night operation at Sultan Ahmad Shah Airport in Kuantan on Thursday, Aug 21.

The incident occurred around 9:05 pm, prompting immediate response teams to secure the area.

Thankfully, both the pilot and co-pilot managed to escape unharmed, confirmed Pahang police chief Commissioner Datuk Seri Yahaya Othman.

The RMAF issued a statement assuring that urgent measures are underway and further updates will follow.

This accident has sparked renewed attention on Malaysia’s Hornet fleet, which has faced issues before.

In 2019, a similar F/A-18D jet at the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition ingested a foreign object mid-display, leading to an engine fire, though it landed safely.

Malaysia currently operates just eight F/A-18D jets, raising concerns about the future readiness of its aging fleet.

BREAKING: Cambodia To Nominate Trump For Nobel Peace Prize After Brokering Ceasefire With Thailand

Cambodia is set to nominate U.S. President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, crediting his pivotal role in negotiating a ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand after a deadly five-day border conflict. Cambodia’s Deputy Prime Minister Sun Chanthol hailed Trump’s “great efforts for peace,” saying his intervention — including threats to pull out of trade talks — forced both Southeast Asian nations to come to the negotiating table. The ceasefire, brokered in Malaysia, ended the region’s worst violence in over a decade, which left at least 43 people dead and displaced over 300,000. Trump said the war “would have turned nasty,” but was halted by leveraging trade diplomacy. This marks Trump’s third recent Nobel recommendation, following nominations by Israel and Pakistan for mediating other global crises. The Cambodian leader also praised Trump for reducing tariffs on Cambodian exports, sparing the nation’s garment and footwear sector from economic collapse. #Trump #Cambodia #Thailand #NobelPeacePrize #TrumpNobelNomination #Ceasefire #BorderConflict #CambodiaThailandWar #PeaceDeal #TrumpDiplomacy #Geopolitics #TrumpPeaceEfforts #CambodiaConflict #TradeWar #Trump2025 #AsiaNews #MalaysiaMediation #Netanyahu #GazaHostages #GlobalPolitics ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.124~
