NEW DELHI, June 13 (Xinhua) -- An Indian Air Force's MiG-27 fighter jet crashed near the western state of Rajasthan's Jodhpur city Monday, a senior defense official said.
Though two pilots ejected safely, three persons on the ground sustained injuries and a building near the crash site was damaged, he said on condition of anonymity.
The fighter jet was old and the incident happened as soon as it took off on a training flight from the Jodhpur air base, the official said.
The Indian Air Force has ordered a court of inquiry into the incident, he added.
