WATCH Video From F-35B Fighter Jet Crash Site in South Carolina

According to a Marine spokesman, the fifth-generation jet crashed one day after it flew its first combat mission in Afghanistan. Although the incident resulted in no casualties, it may bring heavy losses for the US military budget as one such aircraft is valued at as much as $115 million.

A video emerged of the suspected crash site of America's cutting-edge, multimillion-dollar stealth fighter F-35B. The clip was uploaded by a Twitter account that covers airline industry news.

The footage is said to be showing the scene one hour after the crash. Rising plumes of smoke can be seen on Little Barnwell Island, just five miles from the Beaufort Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS).
