The US Pacific Fleet announced on September 4 local time that five missing persons on a shipborne helicopter that crashed recently had died. As many people were injured on the aircraft carrier carrying the helicopter, some media suspected that the helicopter was likely to crash directly into the aircraft carrier.
It is reported that the MH-60S knighthawk helicopter, belonging to the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier, crashed into the sea at 4:30 p.m. on August 31, about 60 nautical miles from the coast of San Diego. One crew member was rescued that night and five others were missing.

Some media speculated that from the details of someone injured on the aircraft carrier, the MH-60S fuselage or components hit the aircraft carrier. According to a local media report, the helicopter crashed into the aircraft carrier flight deck before falling into the sea.
The crashed helicopter was part of the 8th helicopter maritime combat squadron of the US Navy.
