The aircraft went down in Clinton, Maryland on Wednesday, after two pilots were seen ejecting, WJLA reported.
It was not yet clear whether the jet was an F-15 or F-16. Ward Carroll, a retired naval aviator, told Business Insider that, since two aircrew ejected, it was either an F-15E or a trainer version of an F-16.
The jet is believed to be from the Air National Guard out of Joint Base Andrews, according to NBC News.
