Yesterday, two Boeing E/A-18G Growlers collided mid-air during an airshow demonstration at Mountain Home AFB, Idaho.

All four pilots successfully ejected using the Martin-Baker US14A (NACES) Ejection Seat.

The EA-18G Growler’s historical unit procurement cost is about $67–80 million USD per aircraft (latest lots around $79–80M inflation-adjusted).

Foreign military sales (like Australia’s replacement jet) have been quoted up to $125M including support/equipment.

Replacement today would likely fall in that ballpark.

Public Severe Weather Outlook

PUBLIC SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK  
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0750 AM CDT MON MAY 18 2026

...Severe thunderstorms expected over parts of the south-central
Plains and mid Missouri Valley this afternoon and evening...

* LOCATIONS...
  Iowa
  Central and Eastern Kansas
  Northwest Missouri
  Southeast Nebraska
  Northern Oklahoma

* HAZARDS...
  Several tornadoes, a couple intense
  Scattered damaging winds, some hurricane force
  Widespread baseball-size hail

* SUMMARY...
  Numerous severe thunderstorms are expected this afternoon and
  evening across the south-central Plains and mid Missouri Valley.
  Supercells capable of producing very large to giant hail and
  multiple strong to intense tornadoes are most likely from
  central Kansas and southeast Nebraska into Iowa and northwest
  Missouri.

Preparedness actions...

Review your severe weather safety procedures for the possibility
of dangerous weather today. Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio, 
weather.gov, or other media for watches and warnings. A tornado
watch means that conditions are favorable for tornadoes to form
during the next several hours. If a tornado warning is issued for
your area, move to a place of safety, ideally in a basement or
interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy building.

SPC MD 768
MD 0768 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR EASTERN MISSOURI...FAR SOUTHEAST IOWA...AND WEST-CENTRAL ILLINOIS

Mesoscale Discussion 0768
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0651 AM CDT Mon May 18 2026

Areas affected...eastern Missouri...far southeast Iowa...and
west-central Illinois

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

Valid 181151Z - 181315Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...A long lived thunderstorm cluster has shown signs of
renewed updraft intensity. An isolated large hail or damaging wind
gust to two will be possible this morning. A watch is currently not
expected.

DISCUSSION...A long lived MCS continues to move east across northern
and central Missouri this morning. Recent satellite observations
have shown a renewed cooling trend of cloud tops indicated of
increasingly robust updrafts. This correlated to an increase in the
number of taller, stronger updraft cores evident in MRMS CAPPI
imagery.

The renewed vigor of some of these updrafts appears tied to a
slightly better environment across eastern Missouri than farther
west. MUCAPE values are between 1500-2000 J/kg and objectively
analyzed effective-layer shear has improved to between 30 and 40
knots. Additionally, KLSX VAD winds show strong 0-1 kilometer
veering flow, with around 40-knots of shear. Upper-tropospheric
winds have also improved as the area is on the northern periphery of
a 60-knot 300-mb subtropical jet streak lifting northeast across
Arkansas and Missouri.

All this will result in the potential for some severe hail and wind
this morning along the main convective edge of the MCS. Given the
strength of the low-level flow, a brief tornado cannot be ruled out,
especially where this MCS intersects the outflow of an earlier MCS.

There is uncertainty as to the longevity of this threat. Latest CAM
guidance suggests that as the low-level jet weakens later this
morning, the overall severity of the MCS will weaken as well.
However, given the overall character of the environment, the
potential for isolated severe hail and wind will be possible over
the next couple of hours.

Given the sporadic nature and uncertainty regarding the longevity of
the threat, a watch appears unlikely at this time, but trends are
being monitored.

Valid 181300Z - 191200Z

...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
CENTRAL/NORTHEAST KANSAS...SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA...AND FAR NORTHWEST
MISSOURI...

...SUMMARY...
Numerous severe thunderstorms are expected this afternoon and
evening across the south-central Plains and mid Missouri Valley.
Supercells capable of producing very large to giant hail and
multiple strong to intense tornadoes are most likely from central
Kansas and southeast Nebraska into Iowa and northwest Missouri.

...Central Plains into the Midwest/Great Lakes...
Extensive convection continues this morning from western IL into MO
and far eastern KS, aided by warm/moist advection associated with a
40-50 kt southwesterly low-level jet. Gradual destabilization of the
airmass downstream of this ongoing activity is expected today across
the mid MS Valley and Midwest/OH Valley/Great Lakes. Some potential
exists for re-intensification of one or more bowing clusters, with
scattered damaging winds the main concern as low-level lapse rates
gradually steepen. Somewhat less instability and more modest
mid-level flow and related deep-layer shear with eastward extent
into the OH Valley should induce gradual weakening with these
clusters this evening.

The outflow boundary from the morning convection across KS will
likely play a key role in determining the northern extent of
appreciable severe risk later today across the central Plains into
the mid MO Valley. There is concern that this boundary's continued
southward movement this morning and ongoing convection to its north
may hinder/delay destabilization this afternoon ahead of the surface
cold front/dryline. Still, strengthening mid-level flow and
large-scale ascent associated with an ejecting shortwave trough is
expected to overspread the developing warm sector across central KS
into southeast NE by mid to late afternoon.

Even with potential limiting factors such as outflow boundary
placement and residual cloud cover, the presence of very steep lapse
rates aloft (reference 12Z DDC observed sounding) and daytime
heating of a rather moist low-level airmass will likely support
strong to possibly extreme instability south of the cold front and
east of the dryline by early afternoon. Most guidance continues to
suggest that robust thunderstorm initiation will occur by 18-22Z
across central/northeast KS into far southeast NE. These initial
supercells should pose a threat for very large to potentially giant
hail (2-4+ inches in diameter). As low-level shear gradually
increases through late afternoon/early evening in tandem with a
strengthening southerly low-level jet, a focused spatial/temporal
corridor for strong to intense tornadoes should exist across parts
of central/northeast KS into far southeast NE and northwest MO.

Fairly quick upscale growth appears likely by mid to late evening as
thunderstorm mergers/interactions occur, and as the cold front
advances east-southeastward. Even so, a continued threat for QLCS
and embedded supercell tornadoes should continue, as low-level shear
will remain enhanced by a 50+ kt low-level jet. Severe/damaging
winds will also become an increasing concern as convection spreads
eastward in tandem with the cold front. Some severe wind threat may
persist through much of the night since ample instability is
forecast to exist ahead of convection, especially across KS/MO/OK.

...Southern Plains...
Thunderstorm initiation along the dryline this afternoon/early
evening across western OK into western north TX is more uncertain
than locations farther north given expectations for more limited
forcing for ascent. If/where convection does form, there is the
potential for very large hail and a conditional risk for tornadoes
with any persistent supercells, given the presence of steep
mid-level lapse rates, strong instability, moderate deep-layer
shear, and gradually increasing low-level shear this evening. But,
weaker winds above 400 mb by late afternoon/evening may not be
overly favorable for long-lived convection, even if it does form.

...Mid-Atlantic/Northeast...
Influenced by terrain and a surface trough, isolated strong to
severe thunderstorms capable of producing occasional wind damage may
occur this afternoon within a moderately unstable environment.
