A Nigerian Air Force trainer aircraft was involved in a “minor mishap” but two pilots came out of the crash unharmed, the air force said.
It happened near a military airfield in the northern Kaduna state at 14:35 local time.
The pilots had been returning from a routine training flight, the air force said.
“Luckily both pilots came out of the crash unscathed,” the air force spokesman, Edward Gabkwet, said in a statement.
No further details were provided.
The air force has ordered an investigation to determine the immediate cause of the crash.
Nigeria has suffered a number of military air crashes in recent years.
In 2021, Nigeria’s army chief Ibrahim Attahiru was killed in a plane crash in Kaduna.
