Flight Tracking Data Shows US Fighter Jet Over Venezuelan Airspace

The flight tracking website Flightradar24 shows that a U.S. military F/A-18E Super Hornet (RHINO51) entered Venezuelan airspace near the country’s northern coast just moments ago.

It appears RHINO51 switched off its transponder. More than 113,000 Flightradar24 users tracked the aircraft.

The U.S. military has not confirmed that the fighter jet entered Venezuelan airspace.

Here’s what OSINT folks on X are saying:

Uno aparentemente habría entrado a territorio venezolano (RHINO51). Otro está sobrevolando Los Roques.
