An IAF Jaguar aircraft crashed near Allahabad on Tuesday, in the second such crash of a Jaguar fighter jet this year.
The pilots ejected safely, and no casualties were reported.
The aircraft crashed 18 km from Allahabad at about 8.47 am when it was on a regular sortie, according to ANI.

The crash is also the third such incident for the Indian Air Force in a month.
Earlier this month, an IAF advanced jet trainer hawk crashed in Odisha's Mayurbhanj district on 3 June, while last month, a Sukhoi SU-30 combat jet of the Indian Air Force (IAF) crashed in Assam.
The pilots in both incidents had ejected safely before the crash.
A court of inquiry has been ordered into the latest crash.
