At least 4 people were killed Tuesday morning after a military-contracted helicopter crashed at a missile range facility in Kauai, Hawaii.
The helicopter, a Sikorsky S-61N, was supporting a training operation at the Navy facility when it crashed on its northern end around 10 a.m. Tuesday, according to the Pacific Missile Range Facility's public affairs office.
Four people died as a result of the crash, the Navy said. It was not clear whether the four deceased were civilians or military personnel, and their names have not been released. A Pacific Missile Range Facility spokesperson said the helicopter was operated by the Croman Corporation, an Oregon-based helicopter operating company thatOfficer dies in California when helicopter slams into bay, hours after Miami Beach crash
The corporation provides "range support services" to the missile range facility, according to the U.S. Navy. The Navy describes the Pacific Missile Range Facility as "the world's largest instrumented multi-environmental range capable of supported surface, subsurface, air, and space operations simultaneously." It covers over 1,100 square miles of instrumented underwater range and over 42,000 square miles of controlled airspace, according to the Navy.Tuesday's helicopter crash follows several others across the country within recent days.
