Live footage on NHK displayed the plane in flames as it slid down the runway, despite rescue crews’ efforts to control the fire.
The Coast Guard is investigating the potential collision with the passenger jet. NHK reported that five out of six crew members of the Coast Guard aircraft are unaccounted for, while one managed to escape.
