Pursuit onto NAS Lemoore Ends When Jeep Crashes Into F-18 Super Hornet

- In a pursuit that raised many more questions than the public will ever have answers to, on the night of March 30 - 31, 2016 an unauthorized vehicle being pursued by California Highway Patrol was able to enter the secure jet operations area at Naval Air Station Lemoore, sending officers on a wild chase as an F-18 was flying overhead (visible on FLIR at 5:52).
Real World Police has obtained exclusive FLIR footage showing the chase and ultimate capture of the offender after the CHP helicopter landed to take the driver into custody. What those officers found, though, was a shocking surprise.
This is the kind of footage you have to see to believe. GTA in real life.
Some particularly noteworthy scenes:
5:52 - 6:10
8:04 - 8:28
10:00 - 10:10
20:43 - end
Enjoy!

UPDATE: I am pleased to provide you with a copy of NAS Lemoore's thorough written response to (and evaluation of) the Navy's investigation into the breach of security seen in this video. Although the document is heavily redacted, the redacted portions primarily contain details regarding base security operations. A significant portion of the 48-page document is a detailed chronology of events and that section - largely not redacted - contains more information than you will find anywhere else. The document can be found at www.tiny.cc/nasl.
Thank you for providing the Investigation Report. I think what I learned from this is two things; 1) The base is isolated from their surroundings and don't monitor their community. For example, if a terrorist bomber is stopped off base but heading towards the base - their ignorance is bliss and they don't care. 2) They don't know the meaning of "Lock Down." I was shocked to read that the guard post (including 3) continued to let people in. The F-18's touch & goes should have been diverted and ALL runways shut down.
Table - Talks are fun, done in the daytime when everyone has time to think about their actions. It might be a good idea to have Inspector Generals test all bases for their responses in actual acted out scenarios such as this one. The building I'm in have occasional test where an unauthorized person tries to see how far they can gain access. Trouble never calls in advance.
I read the whole document, except for the redacted portions not made public. It was a complete “Whitewash” and a refusal to acknowledge the Navy’s responsibility to actually secure the air base or to provide or establish accurate communications channels with civilian police and other emergency agencies. The Navy talked to no civilians to determine any facts about this situation and made no effort to find out from the CHP or other civilian emergency agencies how and when Navy emergency telephone numbers were initially provided to them, when updated and when verified.
After failing to conduct a thorough investigation, the final report appears to blame the CHP for not knowing that the Navy building, to which the phone number in the CHP’s file was associated, had been physically destroyed ten years prior to the base intrusion, and had long been out of service. In the public portion of the report there was absolutely no investigation into Navy personnel or NASL records as to how, when and to whom accurate Navy emergency contact telephone numbers had been provided initially or through periodic updates.
The most glaring error, or intentional omission by those responsible for the Report, is the failure of the Report to specifically identify the exact location of the precise entry point onto the operational part of the base by the intruders(referred to as the “JGC” in the report for Jeep Grand Cherokee). The report recites regulations and procedures about Controlled Entry Points, the construction standards for them and so forth, and the awareness by base officers and personnel of these standards, and the importance of inspecting them several times yearly and verifying their effectiveness. Not a word that I read says anything about the actual entry point to the base, or air station, that was used by the JGC and how that was accomplished, when it had last been inspected, or why NASL Security forces had no idea the base had been breached until after the CHP helicopter had landed. No question was asked about why the fighter aircraft were totally unguarded. The road along the perimeter fence appeared to terminate in only one place, at an unmanned entry point to parking places and taxi ways for the fighter aircraft. In spite of this, guards at manned gates thought it was not unusual for motorists to drive down that road terminating at the base’s unmanned rear entrance and notified no one in charge, even after seeing the CHP vehicles in the area, with lights flashing. The gate guards even let a CHP pursuit vehicle onto the base to continue the pursuit, but apparently either notified no one, or those who were notified did not notify the officer in charge or any responsible in base security or at the CHP. One person with watch responsibility was at home asleep.
In short, no one at NASL was found to be at fault in any way, and any blame was the responsibility of the CHP for not knowing how to contact base security at NASL and not giving the base enough notice that an intrusion was possible.
Looks like the officers signing off on the Navy report never saw this video from the CHP helicopter.
As Clint Eastwood said in "Heartbreak Ridge".....a clusterfuck!
@sarah michel probably drug related or something, apparently they were on meth.

Shame Navy shame!
I recommend installing more F-18 horizontal stabilizers around the security perimeter.
LMFAO!!!!

If that were a Tomcat stab it would have killed the guy!!

I was stationed on this base for 5 years. The only thing base security is good at is making everyone late to work.
How tf did he get in there without getting shot or his car distorted by those steel wedges
Also how is it the hp that’s trying to get this guy and not security/mps
Please, you're prolly late before you even reach the gate, don't blame security bc you don't leave the house on time
SimplSaiyaNappa then tell me why leaving 5 mins later than I normally do makes me 30 mins late to work? (And I leave 40 mins early to work)

Lol did the helicopter operators make the arrest
This is exactly what happens with security in low risk areas, people who never see any action and never expect anything to happen, almost as if their role in security is there as a rubber stamp rather than a practical reason.
Over time people who do this role in such scenarios become so apathetic to the whole concept of security that you end up with what you just saw,
a guy driving a jeep into a fighter jet, and not a single security person in sight to stop him.
If it were to happen on some airfield in a Iraq for example, during the war, that guy would've been shot way before he got past the outer perimeter

Oops. I should have said Navy personnel are premature seamen.
How come he is able to roam the base un harrassed but when i play GTA i do the same thing but die within 30 secs by like 4 tanks....
Relatable.
In real life military personnel cannot and i repeat cannot shoot or show aggression if something like this unless they are shooting at the military personnel or attacking the base or stealing military equipment and vehicle
Bcause his is fake, while yours, my nan, is the real deal...
Killer4 The Wolf Isn't unauthorized entry by force considered "attacking the base"? I mean for all they know he could be planting a bomb inside there...
@@ObatolceTV he was on a police chse when he entered the base
So basically, someone could have taken out an entire squadron of F-18's and base security would have been miles away.
But they did tell them to stay off the runway. 🤬 smh.
exactly what I said......they could have easily filled up a 24 of beer bottles with gasoline and rags and fire bombed half a billion worth of jets.....each is worth about $70 million. Shit, they could have taken out a billion worth of aircraft.......
Edit: I counted 30 aircraft worth $70 million each. That's $2.1 BILLION. One bottle filled with gasoline and a rag would have taken out each one. I suspect they are not parked empty and even if they were, the fumes inside the wing tanks would cause an explosion as soon as the fire melted through the skin.
Its not like they leave the keys above the visor
There is NO BASE SECURITY, obviously.

Mess with the hornet, got the stinger.
*Laughs in Mig-29 *
@Scitronaunt best bang for buck jet out there.
It only has 2 confirmed kills... Good for a tanker I guess
The jeep didn't crash into anything though.
How terrible is the security on a Naval base that a vehicle can drive onto the base and approach several groups of fighters with NO response from base security. This is shameful and heads need to roll.
Yeah heads will roll. This was really bad. This base will go through drastic changes. They were not prepared.
esp the passenger in the suspects car
This happened like 3 years ago.. and the car approach the hate in middle of night with headlights off.. the car was able to blast through the “exiting” side of gate, and security patrols were responding to another part of base..
Regardless of when it happened, or what time of the day or night, there is no excuse for letting a vehicle, not only onto the base, but also allowing it to drive unchallenged around the tarmac where more than a dozen aircraft are parked. Plus they knew the situation, the police chopper was in contact with the base before the breach occurred. The breakdown of security is indefensible for a military installation.
Hmm, how about base security, that would be a good place to start I think. They could have challenged the vehicle and fired upon it if it failed to yield. Nobody should be able to just crash through a fence with absolutely no security presence at all until after the vehicle drove around for some minutes, past dozens of F/A-18's, crashed into one, then pulled off between the runway and taxiway and fell out of the vehicle on their own. Even then, it was several minutes until the police chopper landed and the pilots were on scene with the suspect in custody before the M.P.'s even showed up. Also, like I said before, the base was aware of the situation just outside their perimeter and couldn't mobilize some security in all that time??
When you can’t find a plane on gta 5 so you keep driving around till one spawns

Well done, McDonnell Douglas.
I wonder how a P47 would hold up to that jeep...

McDonnell Douglas and Northrop not Boeing. Boeing only acquired McDonnell Douglas later and then continued to produce the F18

okay but when the heli landed, that kinda broke the 4th wall

jeez you really do think this shits a game huh?
??????????????????nobody knows what you mean ???????????????????????
Let me congratulate the F18 for taking down both suspects.
The airplane was like Thanos “Fine I’ll do it myself”
Without even firing a shot. Very impressive.
Base security fail. They are lucky this guy was just your run of the mill idiot and not intent on causing damage to those jets.
Base security probably figured they were members of the 'Religion of Peace' and didn't want to offend them. It was during Zero's reign after all.
They def wasn’t terrorist... the male and female passenger were Hispanic, and was just running from the cops
More of local law enforcement/ base security communications fail.. they didn’t inform the ops gate of a car with no headlights coming at them.. and they blew right past them...
Not a lot they could do. Probably not a whole lot of time for the police to alert them once he headed towards the gate. He could have even blown through a chain link fence somewhere and they might not have been alerted at all until he headed out to the runway and the folks in the tower saw him. I know one thing for sure... there’s gonna be some people who are gonna be going through a whole lot of extra training!
My 'religion of peace' quip was purely satirical. Shoulda used a smiley to indicate it as such. :-)
This gives you a sense of just how tough those planes are: the stabilizer sliced through the Jeep like a knife, and the plane didn't even budge.
The passenger had to be an ugly sight.
the f18s are chained to the ground
it did move. and a piece of the stabilizer sheered off. 10:05 to 10:07 play it in slow mo
jpdemer5 The driver was in horrible shape too and died later in the hospital. He was high on meth and morphine though so he probably didn’t endure much
Actually it looks like the Jeep sliced through the stabilizer like butter, it was missing the tip after the crash. Ouch.
@@Divine_R Yea and the passenger got killed in an instant
The f18 is such a great craft that it single handedly killed those criminals without even needing a pilot.
Gotta be careful the libtards will try to ban them too!
winovmc right! They will say the F18 went into auto killing mode. Dems are dumber than dirt! 😜😂😂😂
@@jason127x99 they couldn't pour piss out of a boot even if the instructions were on the bottom of it
@Butter Finger--LOL LOL best post!!
Ban fully semi automatic f18's with under barrel attachments!
they should paint the JEEP logo under the cockpit on that particular Hornet... next to any other legitimate kills of course
knowing how wasteful they are they will probably just dump it and get a replacement. Will / is probably sitting in a practice bombing field somewhere for target practice. Of course this is with 0 military background, but it doesn't take a non civi to see what they do with slight inconveniences to high tech equipment.
Dante S550 10R80'S yea no .. they’re just going to replace the Horizontal stab and call it a day... It’s uncommon but wings, vertical stabs, etc.. and other major flight control surfaces do get replaced from time to time.
question! I'm curious, but are those stabilzer's made out of carbon fiber? Just curious Growing up thinking everything is titanium/ some kind of steel XD
I have no idea but I highly doubt that they are made of anything other than a metal alloy, the US aeronautical industry has historically been sceptical of carbon fibre and composites, while other producers, like the French Airbus have pioneered production using these materials.
That's exactly where I was pulling that information from the airbus XD
This was an epic failure and an embarrassment to all military LEOs! I am a retired Air Force LEO. What should have happened is to allow CHP & SO units on base and have base PD follow as back up. Tower should have put the F-18 into a high hold pattern pending the resolution of the incident. The only reason it should land is if it must declare an IFE due to low fuel. It killed me when the tower said he might shut down (close) for the night before the situation was resolved. Base PD was nowhere to be found for 10 min or more. Wow! I am not sure what Navy/Marine protocol is, but had this been on an AF base, base PD would have been right there. And since we don't leave aircraft without some response force dedicated they would have never made it that close to the planes. In our use of force model deadly force is authorized to protect resources vital to national security. There was no reason to say CHP & SO couldn't come on base and continue the pursuit. Of course their jurisdiction ends as soon as they enter federal property, but that is irrelevant considering the pursuit was initiated off base. The same would be if we chased someone off base and local units followed us up. I can see keeping them off the flightline and runways, but not the base. This was an epic fail on so many levels. I could pick this apart for days!
I'm retired ATC, and from that angle, that was pathetic. No way should that F18 be doing touch and goes with that so close to the runway. The tower couldn't see the Jeep, but they knew the CHP helo was chasing one right there. Just a break-down in good sense. Everyone involved on the Navy side of this probably under the age of 25, not including the F18 IP. Hope they learned from it.
Robert Mardis yeah I would think they would suspend runway ops until the incident is cleared. I also can't believe tower said he was going to shut down for the night. I can only imagine all the FAA rules that were busted here. He crossed an active runway causing an incursion and there was no FOD sweep. Unreal! I would hope there were lessons learned here. All I know if I was the pilot I would be pissed and filing a report on this. Clear me to land when a helo is over the field shining its spot as well as a fucking vehicle going rogue on the side of the runway I land on. Oh yeah, heads would roll!
LottiDotti76 When I was as stationed at NAS Bermuda in the 80’s, marines guarded all entrances and there were also navy security personnel in vehicles-
You clearly have no idea what your talking about
Let's be honest if this happened on an AD Air Force Base even the gate guards would respond.
Damn. The story these two helicopter pilots will be able to tell.
my guess is they will be in court soon explaining what they saw. I would hope at least
The driver would have a better one.
@@ashsmitty2244 Dead people can't tell a story. That near-miss with the F/A-18 was actually a hit with the rear wing.
I wouldn't have wanted to walk up to that car after the lower stabilizer sliced through the passenger though. You know that was some gnarly shit.
ThirdEyeJedi. Yep. I'll bet that was grisly. That stabilizer through the windshield probably pretty well decapitated the passenger. I'm guessing a major head injury for the driver. Probably lots of glass and shrapnel in both of them. Combination of blunt force trauma and bleeding probably did in the driver. Not something I'd want to witness.
Damn! An F-18E can kill even sitting still. Base security was very negligent letting them get on the base in the first place and letting it get as far as it did. Somebody's ass should be hanging on the wall for that one.
OneLastHitB4IGo I hope it’s not the Chinese trying to steal sensitive technology
If it was I see they took the Russian mig pig nose approach catching the technology.

3:02 "can I put my spotlight on now?" Sounds like a kid playing with his new toy. Haha
That was the observer asking the helo pilot. The pilot didn't want the light on in the event it would interfere with the night vision and safety of the F-18 that was in the pattern.
NO!!!!!!
Sadly they were conducting flight ops. If they knew the vehicle was near the runway, they would've stopped the flight ops. A spotlight would've been a big help.

Ex-Base security commander in about three days: "would you like fries with that?"
Both the driver and passenger died. They collided with the second jet where part of the plane cut through the windshield and decapitated the passenger and the throat of the driver. the passenger obviously died instantly and driver died on the way to the hospital. Watch the replay at very end of the video.
PHILLIP BRUNELLE Hey Phil, you are absolutely correct. I was there!
I was there too.. it was the throat tho? I heard reports that it ripped through the right rib cage
brady miller No way! What were you out there for? Yeah, the passengers head was hanging on by a thread. It cut just above the throat at the jaw line if I remember correctly. The driver was sliced in the rib cage.

@@lstruggy ,
One of the most detested tasks crew chiefs had to perform was cleaning up after bird strikes. T37 or T38, both required extremely comprehensive cleanings and inspections after bird strikes.
Let’s say that jeep was packed with 200 pounds of RDX. Probably enough to cause major damage to some of those F-18s. That’s a couple hundred million dollars worth of damage right there. The security on that base is appalling l
J P Acutally while we’re at it let’s just put a dirty bomb in the car, now you’ve contaminated a whole military base and potentially exposed hundreds of personnel to deadly radiation
The UK commandos and SAS used this tactic of driving into enemy airfields at night during WW2, in north africa. They would then just drive around shooting all the aircraft with mounted weapons, maybe blow a few up with explosives if they had time. Was very effective apparantly.
Dontcha just love all the arm-chair quarterbacks that seem to have all the answers? Next you're going to tell us how you're a twenty-year vet that spent your time as an MP, guarding bases just like this.

Pathetic example of airfield security..... The navy have a lot to be ashamed about over this one. At least the Travis AFB incursion was stopped close to the main gate.....
Although you are right, this is a major fail, don't. Just dont. I was stationed at Travis in 2003-2006. AF security were incompetent as fuck. Dumbshits conducted drills near our white planes without notifying us and almost got dropped.
Who guards navy bases....marines
All of America is like this including nuclear locations now. It's all ran skeleton with the old cold war big force idea when reality is you're lucky to get 1 or 2 SF on duty to get anywhere. It's a joke. If anyone launched a missile now days it would be like dawns early light as lax as we have got in military America. It's very scary how people don't realize how lax security is.

OWEN BOCK Who knows. They may just do it depending on the consequences for disobeying. All the army would have to do is make them more severe if they were serious about the mission.
They very much would have opened with Automatic fire after verbal warnings, but over their heads, and that would have been enough to scare the shit out of them to think twice. If not, a few bodies sure would have.

Dxbb Dhjh - NAS Stands for "Naval Air Station"
The Navy has more jets than the Air force and any other branch of service.
NAS stands for Network Attached Storage fuck u mean
Zero security response other than to say stay off the base? Oh boy, someone got a piece of paper in their file.
Nah, more than likely have an outsourced civilian crew and since its at night they probably barely had enough to even man the gates. Naval stations are mostly like that nowadays. Any other branch's base wouldve had it stopped within 30 feet of the gate
Bill Roberts the PD dispatch did a poor job as well. They needed to stay on the phone with security to maintain an open line of contact with them. I work PD and our local (very large and active) Air Force base will gladly allow us on base to chase the suspect.
@@crazynova23 this right here. Unfortunately most of these people dont know wtf they're talking about.
Talk about shoddy base security. That vehicle should not have been allowed that far...
Weirdest thing I've seen in a while. Officers couldn't go onto base, but base security wasn't anywhere to be found?
Paul Borne..... And the runway was still active....failed communication all around. poor operating parameters.
Yea the police can’t just get on. Though MP not showing up is really strange. I’m guessing this is a police helicopter that basically violated airspace. But I guess if the navy base can’t do its job then let the cops in.
KW ..do you anything about US NAVY..???...what branch did you serve in..???
Arcticpara Are u a keyboard warrior trying to pretend that you served in the armed forces?
The np didn’t even answer dispatch

Nice job obtaining this Incredible footage!
Thank you!

lmfaoooooooooooooo
The next Michael Moore movie title!
America is the land of the free
APU WAS BEHIND IT
Base security needs to get fired wtf lol
Easier said than done, still trying to locate them!
He went on the opposite side of the ecp that’s why
Base security, the people who installed the fencing and or gate system, the people in charge of said barriers, the maintenance staff who was in charge of making sure they were up and intact......
The Base commander should be summarily courtmartialed for incompetence.
They are likely told to allow the local police to handle it. It is far less liability to let the cops do it.
The SUV began driving erratically while on the tarmac, and eventually clipped the horizontal stabilizer of a parked F/A-18E, killing the passenger on impact and slicing the driver’s neck open. Both were pronounced dead on the scene and were later identified as 29-year-old Anthony Castillo and his passenger, 36-year-old Melissa Miller.
Koltin Nilam thank you for not being on of these people that joke around about this stuff because the passenger Melissa miller was one of my family members
@@jackrr495 So she got with a Mexican and this is the result. She was killed instantly, he died later at hospital.
Zero sh*ts given over moronic car chases onto a military base. The bitch was old enough to know better.
@@jackrr495 sorry to hear about your relative, who, along with her companion and driver, were high on meth, fleeing police and both wanted on outstanding warrants. Ariba!
@@jackrr495 she liked the bad boys huh?
This really needs to get a review from ALL branches of the military, especially those dealing with sensitive assets such as aircraft, combat vehicles, and personnel housing (barracks). Lack of communication was the key drawback in this scenario. Perhaps dedicated security personnel that could monitor the nearby law enforcement and emergency channels.
This was just one vehicle that was trying to lose the police. What if it was someone with a plan?
jamest1148 dude I’ve been here. The are MP at all of two checkpoints that I knew of. MP are all over the place. Plus they have their own dispatch center and cameras. If I was a base commander and this happened I’d be owning some asses top down and bottom up at the same time. I think this was some military kid that someone tried to protect by stopping enforcement.
Lack of communication?! Is that what you're going with? There is no way in hell an unauthorized helicopter should have been buzzing around with a car on the ground going unchallenged for any amount of time, let alone as long as it did.
Rob Calhoun unauthorized helicopter? Did you not listen to the crew talking to the control tower and communicating about the f18 flying around?
soloqueuestruggle
There was a lot of cross traffic and most of the info the helicopter pilot was getting re: the inbound f-18 was second hand from their dispatch (female).
If the tower was in communication with the pilot, why were they not sending security to the location where the vehicle was? How hard could it be to spot with a helicopter following along behind and above?
Rob Calhoun that’s not the problem, the tower (or security, based on them asking if the suspect vehicle was in the base yet when it already had been for way too long) didn’t know where it was
this is the most badass American arrest I have ever seen.
I live immediately adjacent to Ft. Hood. I am a retired LEO here. Even when the post was "open" and a pursuit took us on post the MPs were always right there! Now there are gates at every entry and it is a pain to get through. How can this not be the case at a NAS? That pursuit was on the base, got too close to MANY aircraft and there were NO ground units responding until it was basically over? Holy crap batman...
You know somethings wrong when the pilot says "Fk it, ill get him"
Drop 'er down here, Ed. And hold my beer. lol
Wow that jet wasn’t even turned on and has more kills than most military pilots in modern day.
Many do have ground kills, which this is. They do not do a ton of shooting aircraft down as they destroy most of them while still parked. Years back it was USA F-22 vs Iraq in an F-4. As one pilot story goes the F-22 didnt even both shooting the F-4. He just flew up under him, looked at the F-4's weapons, pulled up beside it, and told the Iraq pilot to go home....which he did....
That’s showing mercy and still being a badass
Dammit just let em put his spot light on!!
With the jet that was flying in the traffic pattern, he couldn't. Because it risked blinding the F18 pilot and causing a crash. If you listen, it's not the police dispatch that says not to use the spot, it's the tower
@@SGManiac1255 That was piss-poor decision by the tower/or IP in the F18. Everyone except the CHP Helo and ground units... well.. everyone on the Navy side of this , was treating this as if saying stay away was sufficient for a pursuit adjacent to the base. As if the cops can control where those guys were going to go. Complacency and as other said up thread, complete failure of base security to understand what was transpiring.
Also you don't even need spotlights, ever. The UK doesn't ever use spotlights.
So. That voice from ace combat really exists
Bartlett had practice
But does the USN have *OSEAN FRIED CHICKEN?????*
I was thinking the same thing!
Yes! XD
I'm sorry,but what kind of "voice"?
Whitehouse, can I help you? Yes, please tell the Admiral in charge of the Navy that we have apprehended a man who drove his vehicle onto one of your air bases and missed hitting 20 F18s and who was fortunately not a terrorist. We can’t contact the base security and maybe he can. Thank you.
They would actually have to call for someone to bag the bodies up. There was nobody left to apprehend.
They did hit an f-18 passenger died on impact and the driver died shortly after
Base Commander needs to be removed, whoever is the base security operations officer needs to be removed, the on watch duty officer needs a reprimand. this base needs some damn security it's embarrassing.
Are you joking ? This is how most bases are including nuclear ones now days. I agree you are thinking Like me the old cold war 70s and 80s man power forces and guards. Now you're lucky if even 10 full duty SFs are on a entire base at night anymore. It's a broke joke America anymore and very mismanaged. It'll bite us one day.
Thats the difference between Navy and Air Force. Navy has almost no flight line security, Air Force has fully Tooled up Security Forces that stay on the flight line.
Most naval stations are outsourced to overweight, out of shape, retirement age civies these days who can barely handle a baton let alone something like this. Army, Air Force or Marine base? Shit, 99.9 times out of a hundred you'll be shot dead or at least in custody within 30 feet of the gate either direction
most likely base security procedures will be reviewed after this event and recommendations made to modify security operations within 24 months or so ...
the light shines dim for this one
This is 2 killmarks on that F-18, right?
I wish 🙄 unfortunately, they wouldn't let us put any on
His brother could stalk you and kill you just because you mocked his brother's death.
There are cases like that.
Then someone will mock wewd's death and get stalked and killed. The vicious cycle continues...
I recommend reducing your cocaine usage to an 8 ball or less.
Good advice... excellent wingman!
That man really wanted to use his spotlight
The Navy Gate Guards had a stick and a whistle.
And they couldn't find the whistle.
The gate security was not armed ? Totally stupid!
🥶
"near miss" yeah he nearly missed, half the H-stab is in his passenger seat
more like through the passengers skull. The passenger died on impact and the driver died in the field
Man, NAS Lemoore really needs to re-evaluate their security procedures.
I was in the line shack when this happened. I remember this night, we were told to stay inside and that there was an active shooter 🤦♂️
I don't know how any chase can ever top this. It has EVERYTHING. Truth really is stranger than fiction.
Security is on a donut break, we’ll be back in 20 minutes.
🤣🤣🤣
F-18: the only jet with a confirmed kill while on the ground.
so hostile xD I'm sorry, what other plane then?
Apparently ike fun is off his/her/it's meds.
I was expecting one of the F18s to land and hit the car while touching down
Dam @Will Will you're totally right, how could I forget
ike fun calm down you angry lil’ pip
14:05 when the pilot steps out of the chopper into FLIR it looks Awesome!
"We come in peace. Take us to your leader"
I was like "ooooh their asses will lit up like a christmas tree in FLIR". I wasn't disappointed. LoL
Never thought I would see you here Spartan
Lol I am everywhere!
His head was as hot as the jeeps brakes
You know what that audio needs? More BEEEEEEEEEEP!
Ok ,Ron. Ha
I was thinking it needed moar cowbell!
At least they didn't hold the helicopter vertically.
I wonder if there's an uncensored version?
man those planes are deadly in the air and on the ground
I served 21 years in the Navy and part of it was spent in Lemoore. This is embarrassing in regards to base security. I'm sure security had a safety stand down and a reevaluation of their security procedures. This could have really gone very bad.
"i still have a visugal.."
speech.exe has stopped working
Navy is sleeping High Schools have better Security than NAS Lemoore :(
aldridgesp here’s a plot twist,it’s the guys who joined the military right after graduating high school at the gate.
All I want to know iS HOW'S MY $70,000,000.63 SUPER HORNET!? And how much did this cost me?
Oh boy... That tail... Easily 6 figures.
That's just parts. When you figure labor, & paint, you're getting deep in 6, near 7 figures!
There were 2 parts changed out, one being the stabilizer.
Good Hornet! Splash two idiots.
I'll never forget 4 years ago when I was in the Navy, I was on a detachment at NAS Fallon. The base was in the middle of no where. After a four day break, I finally made it back to base, but there were no MA's any where, so I literally just walked right through the gate with no one there to check my ID! Anyone could have just walked right through.
Where in the hell is BASE SECURITY ???????? 🐵🐵🐵🐵🐵🐵🐵🙏🏻
Sleeping obviously. Mattis would be pissed
They went the wrong way at one point.
Man security at NAS Lemoore has gotten lax sense I was stationed there. No way he would have rolled uncontested that long when I was security there. Of course that was the first two years following 911.
So just a little insight. NAS lemoore is surrounded busy farms. The fence line only sorounds about 25% of the base. Most of that 25% is secure high security areas (like they weapons area) and the housing/barracks area 7 miles SE of the runways.
It is not by any means the most secure place. But it is in the middle of flat farmlands and threats can be seen for miles on approach.
Obviously there were some small amount of flight ops going on sense a Jet was in the pattern and did a touch and go. This means the ATC tower was manned.
There was a obvious communication problem between local authorities and base security. I don’t know why they weren’t able to communicate.
Needless to say I bet the higher ups there are getting raked over the coals for allowing that incursion to go as far as it did. I know all those roads too well and there is no way he shouldn’t have been stopped out there along the side of the runway before he ever got around the end of it. Let alone all the way up to the hangers, taxiway and aircraft.
Hotwheelz_McG Someone above gave some context to that.
They had been trying to contact through the number they were given (they did what they could with all the info they had), which was correct except for the building and stuff that number was for had been demolished 10 years prior.
With that said, it’s an issue with administration there if they just couldn’t be bothered to get their information updated, imho.
On the other hand, whether or not the officers had the opportunity to stop the vehicle before it got into the base itself could be something for them to look into, though figuring that out would be a bit difficult considering all the factors that come into play with those situations (when’d they get involved in the chase, where did it start, how close were any of them at any given point, what was known or unknown to the officers, etc... and that’s not including traffic conditions and such).
Overall, it’s a mess that better get some attention and will hopefully help prevent much more dangerous incidents from happening in the future.
Also, thanks for your service.
I was there in 95-99
Security had "issues" with some members burglarizing base housing when informed residents were to be out of the area on leave!
rkburnam yes I remember hearing about that. A few of the people u worked with were there for that. Including my FTO, Mahoney. You may have known him. I’m not sure if it happened while you were there but a semi truck crashed into his house down the road from the base.
either that or they were ordered to not approach them because they werent suppose to get out alive...
luis anaya ???? I’m not sure I understand what your meaning.
I did some digging and found some records on this incident. It explains a lot. It looked like inaction, but missed the genius move by base security. They did respond, but with the knowledge and experience that only comes from years on the job and a practical knowledge of P&C Insurance.
They held back and made it appear that they couldn’t be reached and had no one to respond. The plan from the beginning was to conserve Human Resources and avoid ammunition expenditures by letting the perps drive around in the dark until they ran into the deadly stealth painted tail of the killer jet.
They have zero deductible comp policy and since it was parked, unoccupied, it’s comp, not collision. It’s fully covered and won’t go against the owners experience rating.
#GoNavy
I mean, it is an airbase and they were probably going to get injured, so that's what I assumed.
Great breakdown. Thank you!
What an embarrassment that was. Huge fail by base security.
huge success actually, the F-18 got them
A side note: This is a good example for departments with "no chase" or "restricted chase" policies. Just because you stop chasing doesn't mean that they stop running.
Edit: I suppose I should clarify. I don't mean this particular department with my comment. Only that even when they aren't actively pursuing this guy he is still running, showing that people still run after police stop chasing.
Police can't chase people into military bases. Once on base, it's federal military jurisdiction and the security forces decide whether or not the police may pursue or turn over the pursuit.
Funny enough CHP has a "chase until the ends of the Earth" policy, but since they couldn't get security forces on the phone, they were left out until someone decided to answer the phone.
You're exactly right.
Well, not all suspects kill themselves...
Spot on Jim... the cops back off, and the driver keeps driving, imperiling others.
Really inspires confidence in our National Security..
As a European watching this, I must admit it makes the US Navy look like a bunch of armatures and am baffled that a person can even get near to jets like this. How much damage could a car full of terrorists not have done without any reaction from base security?
After this incident all military bases got some SERIOUS base upgrades. Initial entry way weave barriers, Pop up barriers, secondary guards in case the primary guard is unable to stop unauthorized vehicles. Radiation detection devices, Inspection stations, dogs etc and new ID scanning devices and procedures etc. Just in case you don't know the airfield and hangars are about 5 miles from the main base. Obviously this should have never happened and they NEVER should have made it to the airfield. When I was in the Navy I was stationed at NAS Lemoore and I always though security was lacking, guess I never knew how bad it was until this happened. At this time with the lack of base security they could have done a lot of damage and killed a lot of people, if they knew what they were doing. It's nice to know that base security has improved drastically. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes n Blessings. Keith Noneya
The whole base security command structure needs to be fired and removed from military service!!
Hotel Kilo37 Oooh, a keyboard badass!
Webinator What, you think they should get promoted and a raise?
Agree
Another armchair military hero who single handedly saved the world from imminent nuclear destruction. State your qualifications to make such a statement "Kilo."
sure thing Boss
Some people would call this incompetence. THIS WAS NOT INCOMPETENCE. Incompetence is when one tries to do a job an can not do it adequately. This was 20 minutes of ALMOST TOTAL FAIL. This includes the lack of communication between tower and INsecurity and back. CHP helicopter was talking to tower.
Total fail.
Lol totally agree. Haha. Incompetence is trying and being inadequate. Here they didn't even try.
Where the hell was base security?!! A 30 million dollar aircraft damaged because base security couldn't respond in under 20 minutes? Unfreakinbelievable!! There should be mass charges placed for this gaping security lapse and the head of security fired or busted down to E1. Just imagine what's going through domestic terrorist heads right now.
2 Terrible Toads well if this was a terrorist he could have destroyed all the jets with planted bombs, destroyed part of the gate to let others in, and gotten a Starbucks which is next to this air strip. Then his buddies could destroy the hangers.
Just imagine what an enemy could do to those 30 parked planes and one stolen truck.
I had a part-time job delivering newspapers in the 90's and one of my stops was the Naval Sea Systems Command
in Norco, Ca. (Yes, Norco). One time I drove up to the gate about 4:30 am and the guard was asleep, so I drove through
and did my deliveries. On the way out he was awake and all bent out of shape because I went through without clearance,
I told him I didn't want to disturb his sleep. LOL
At Nellis AFB, they shoot and ask questions later. There are signs everywhere stating deadly force will be used if you even stray off designated walk paths.
this base would have had the same signs.
I wonder what determines the level of security. There is an AFB in Ga called Robins AFB where they recently killed 3 people who tried to drive through the gates
Since it's close to area 51, seems legit.
Signs like that are really nothing more than an acknowledgment that there is no security, and they hope the signs themselves will scare people from crossing the line. Kind of like those signs "$5,000 fine for littering". When has anybody ever gotten a $5,000 fine for littering? The sign is just there to try to scare people not to do it.
Just like McDonald's, it all depends on the location. Looks like the security at this base were all sleeping!
And the Darwin Award goes to...
Airbase security.
Ricky Doolous they didn’t die tho
That was a RAM JET.
Damn best video I have ever seen. I never thought I would ever see a video like this. Awesome
"be advised there is an F-18 in the air"
"Roger, what is his payload, we might need a couple AGM-65s on standby."
"Copy, target in sight"
"Rifle"
Same result in the end, would have been far cheaper, and a great field exercise for the pilot.
