A US military helicopter has crashed near the North Korean border, a South Korean defence official says. There were no reported casualties. The helicopter, identified by the Yonhap news agency as a UH-60 Black Hawk, came down in Cheolwon county, which touches on the border with North Korea, a defence ministry spokesman told AFP.

The cause of the crash was not immediately clear but the incident took place during South Korea-US joint military exercises. Yonhap quoted rescue workers as saying the 12 service personnel on board the helicopter had survived the crash, which comes at a time of heightened military tensions on the Korean peninsula.

North Korea has condemned the joint exercises as a rehearsal for invasion, and made a series of dire threats of military retaliation.

Irrelevant. Maybe you should go and troll in another thread.



To the OP thanks this is pretty big news if it was shot down. Or if it is on the wrong side of the border.

Hopefully it was mechanical in nature and not something that will usher in another reason for war. I guess we will know what they are calling it soon enough.

If they shot it down I think that will mean war right?

It would certainly be a catalyst I would imagine. Right now it probably would not take much more than what has already been going on to set something off.

I would think so. SK will take a kick in the sack but the US will kick right back.

Maybe the MODS should take a good hard look at your posts and determine if you are a troll. From what I have seen in this thread I would say......YES.



If you don't like the topic move on. Sorry for the rant OP.

I dont have a problem just amused that folk are responding when they didnt read the news. Their already jumping to assumptions and not sure why.

Why would you have a problem that a helicopter went down on a " test run" with South Korea? I mean accidents happen and this applies to air transport.

Its called an ACCIDENT.

Well, as long as it didn't crash land on a hill named Tonkin or something, I think we'll be okay.

Thanks for the update Op.
