A South Korean Air Force pilot was killed in a F-5 fighter jet crash on Tuesday, officials said, a week after the country grounded its fleet of F-35s.
The jet crashed into a mountain in Hwaseong, about 50 kilometres south of the capital Seoul, according to military authorities.
The single pilot on board failed to eject and was killed in the crash, the defence ministry said in a statement.
The airforce said it was investigating the cause of the accident.
