A U-2 spy plane crashed in Sutter County Tuesday morning. Sutter County is located west of the Air Force base. A spokesperson for the base stated the incident is now under investigation.

Operational U-2 aircraft are single-seater aircraft, but there are two-seater versions used to train new pilots. Aircraft operated in the wing include the U-2 Dragon Lady (high-altitude reconnaissance), T-38 Talon (supersonic training jet), RQ-4 Global Hawk (unmanned surveillance), and MC-12 Liberty (low-altitude intelligence). The U-2 provides imagery and electronic measurements, according to the Air Force.
