Little is known of the victims at this point, although they are presumed to be members of the military, as both of the fatalities were on board according to CBS42.

The names of the victims have not been released at this time.

The crash occurred around 5:30pm local time. 

The National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the crash out of their Birmingham office.

Additionally, military officers stationed at the airport responded to the scene of the crash.

WSFA reports the crash didn’t happen at the airport, but in a wooden area close by to the airport.

Executive Airport Director Marshall Taggart Jr. told WSFA that no structures were hit by the plane, which crashed near a mobile home park.

Taggart also revealed the flight path of the jet, which originated in Columbus, Mississippi and was en route to Tallahassee, Florida. 

Fox News reports the plane was a two-seat T-38 jet, which is typically used in training by either the Air Force or the Navy.

WSFA reports vehicles sporting the emblem for the Air Force were seen arriving to the crash site.

There are Air Force bases located in both the city of origin and the destination.

The plane reportedly belong to the 14th Flying Training Wing at Columbus Air Force Base.

In October, 30-year-old US Navy Lieutenant Rhiannon Ross and 24-year-old US Coast Guard Ensign were killed in a plane crash in Foley, Alabama.

Their T-6B Texan II training plane crashed into a residential neighborhood, setting a home and several cars on fire.

No injuries were reported on the ground.

An Air Force T-38 Talon supersonic jet trainer crashed near the Columbus Air Force Base in May 2018, though both pilots safely ejected from the plane.

In November 2019, two T-38 talon jets were involved in an incident during a training mission at Vance Air Force Base in Oklahoma, which resulted in two deaths.
