Delete: as per WP:NOTNEWS and WP:RUNOFTHEMILL. Military aircraft accidents are common and nothing distinguishes this from the myriad of other ones that we have no articles about: no wiki-notable people involved, no lasting effects, no airworthiness directives or changes to maintenance proceedures, no changes to regulations, no changes to ATC procedures. Not notable. - Ahunt (talk) 16:43, 7 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Don't think this is run of the mill as even though the plane was a US Military plane, it's actually a modified civilian aircraft that was shot down with a hull loss/casualties, and I expect there will be more that comes out of this. SportingFlyer T·C 19:05, 7 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Not enough notability to have a stand alone article. Military to boot. - Samf4u (talk) 20:58, 7 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Ahunt reasoning.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 05:01, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - this is not a run of the mill accident. Yes, it's a military accident, but one that occurred on an active operation. Additionally, there were ground casualties not connected with the operation of the aircraft. Mjroots (talk) 06:20, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Per SportingFlyer and Mjroots. --The Huhsz (talk) 09:24, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into List_of_aviation_accidents_and_incidents_in_the_war_in_Afghanistan#2020 where there is already an entry. This is a war-zone and so the information is best consolidated with other reports of such casualties. Policies WP:ATD and WP:PRESERVE apply. Andrew🐉(talk) 09:39, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Not enough notability. --SalmanZ (talk) 19:51, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge as per above reasons (either option is good with me). But don't delete it outright. --Woko Sapien (talk) 19:33, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This Article is very important. Do not delete it. Every fatal plane crash is important. This article describes the plane crash in detail, --Stunts1990 (talk) 19:33, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I would let this article stand, especially because there is the possibility of terrorist involvement. As an aside, I don't think it matters, for the purposes of notability, that no well-known people were on board. Dflaw4 (talk) 08:34, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete not notable. Military aircraft crash regularly or get shot down in war zones, I don't see anything here that meets WP:GNG. Mztourist (talk) 11:17, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
