US Military B-52 Bomber Hits Birds Mid Flight
- last year
Occurred on November 3, 2022 / Norwich, North Dakota, USA
: "I was outside my house chopping firewood and my house is right in line with a 10-15 mile final approach to the runway at the airbase, so I always randomly record Minot’s B-52s fly over at low altitudes. I noticed some migratory birds flying right at the plane. I zoomed in to see the birds reaction to the plane flying close to them and didn’t expect to see the B-52 hit 2 birds. I have been contacted by the local Air Force base regarding the incident days after it happened."
