The Mirage IIIV (Balzac V) — A Mach 2 VTOL Vision That Crashed to Earth. On November 28, 1966, the Dassault Mirage IIIV-02, the only VTOL aircraft to surpass Mach 2, was lost during a transition test at Istres Air Base. Equipped with nine jet engines—a primary SNECMA TF106 turbofan for forward thrust and eight Rolls-Royce RB.162 lift jets for vertical flight—the IIIV was France’s daring answer to NATO’s NBMR-3A call for a supersonic VTOL strike fighter. During the test, flown by pilot Jean-Marie Saget, the second prototype suffered instrumentation issues and control instability while shifting from vertical to horizontal flight. Saget ejected unharmed, but the aircraft was destroyed. Deemed overly complex and with NATO’s priorities changing, the program was discontinued in 1967, ending one of aviation’s boldest vertical lift experiments.

To validate the design of the "Mirage IIIV" VTOL fighter, a demonstrator named Balzac V was built in 1962. It was equipped with innovations such as Dassault's first electric flight controls and the use of telemetry to communicate flight data in real time with the ground.

One of the first aircraft to use electrical flight controls with no mechanical linkages, the Balzac 001 was an experimental VTOL aircraft developed by Dassault in the early 1960s. Built as a technology demonstrator for the planned Mirage IIIV supersonic fighter, it was powered by eight Rolls-Royce RB.108 lift engines and a single Bristol Siddeley Orpheus turbojet. The aircraft achieved its first free flight in October 1962 and completed the first full transition from vertical takeoff to horizontal flight in March 1963 but was destroyed in an accident the following year.

Wild coincidence. Just as reports come out of the first French deliveries of Mirage 2000 fighter jets to Ukraine, in an unrelated incident, the Indian Air Force has announced that an Indian Air Force Mirage 2000 crashed during a routine training flight due to a “system malfunction.” Both pilots ejected safely.

In 2002, an air show in Ukraine ended in disaster when the crew of a Su-27 deviated from the approved flight program and the aircraft crashed into the spectator area. Seventy-seven people were killed, including 28 children. Both pilots received prison sentences, and Ukraine imposed a ten-year ban on air shows.

U.S. Air Force F-35 fighter jet crashes during a training exercise at the Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska. The pilot experienced an “inflight malfunction” but was able to eject from the aircraft, Col. Paul Townsend, commander of the 354th Fighter Wing, told a news conference. The plane crashed during the landing phase of the flight at Eielson Air Force Base, he said. The pilot had declared an inflight emergency prior to the crash and was in stable condition and being evaluated at a medical facility, he said.

Just wow. The Curtiss-Wright XP-55 Ascender was a 1943 prototype fighter that aimed for superior performance but was plagued by dangerous stall characteristics-2 of 3 prototypes crashed during testing. Program was canceled in 1945. The survivor is on display at the Air Zoo.👀

How did one of the most durable bombers ever built go from a routine test flight to a fireball in the desert?🤔 A B-52 Stratofortress took off from Edwards Air Force Base on June 15, 2026, during a radar modernization test meant to extend its service life into the 2050s. The takeoff looked normal, but just seconds after liftoff—at only a few hundred feet the aircraft suddenly lost control, pitched downward, and crashed into the desert near the runway.

On Apr. 30, 1966, the second XB-70 prototype, Air Vehicle 2 (AV 2), suffered a short circuit in the landing gear retraction system shortly after takeoff from Edwards Air Force Base. As a result of this malfunction, the nose gear was blown back into the partially retracted gear well door, and the tires were slashed. The malfunction caused hydraulic pressure to remain on three of the four main wheel brakes which, being locked when the XB-70 landed at 173 knots hours later, led to the burn-up of the Valkyrie's main landing gear tires.
