Washington: A MiG-23 fighter plane has crashed during an air show in the US state of Michigan, the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) informs.

“NTSB investigating the Aug. 13 crash of a Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23 near Ypsilanti, Michigan,” the safety board said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Sunday.

The pilots ejected from the plane shortly before it crashed during the Thunder Over Michigan show, and were in good condition after being recovered from a lake, Fox News reported.

No casualties were reported at the crash site. The cause of the crash remains unknown.
