A pilot of the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) was killed on Saturday as his fighter jet crashed in Jamrud, Khyber Agency.

“The pilot of the aircraft Flt Lt Omer Shazad sustained fatal injuries,” the military’s media wing ISPR said. The PAF aircraft was on a routine operational training mission.

“No loss of civilian life and property has been reported on ground,” the statement added. A board of inquiry has been ordered by Air Headquarters to determine the cause of the accident.

Officials claim the aircraft crashed due to a technical fault. Speaking toThe Express Tribune, a senior official of the political administration said, “A team of Swat scouts and Levis officials have been sent to the site of the incident.”

Last year, a PAF fighter jet F7-PG crashed near Mastung during what officials described as a routine training operation. According to a spokesperson for PAF’s Samungli Airbase in Quetta, “The F7-PG fighter jet was on a routine training mission when its engine caught fire and crashed on a fray near Mastung.”
 
Can anybody explain why even after the presence of ejection seat did the pilot got killed? Did he not ejected or was it the angle of ejection or the terrain itself or the ejection seat itself it the main reason which resulted in the loss of a precious life and an asset of our country?
May Allah SWT give him a place in heaven and sabar to his family members. We all grieve over the loss of a son of soil. Our salute to the men in uniform who lay their lives so that we can live peacefully.
 
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un (Arabic: إِنَّا للهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ‎‎)
May Allah Grant him Jannat and give his loved ones the solace and fortitude to bear his Shahadat.
