Crashed Japan navy choppers found on seabed

TOKYO: Japan's navy has located the wreckage of two helicopters on the seabed that crashed more than three months ago, killing eight crew members. The SH-60K helicopters, each manned by four people, were conducting submarine exercises off the Izu Islands in the Pacific Ocean in April when they collided. So far only one body has been found while the other seven were declared dead in June by the Maritime Self Defense Forces after a fruitless search operation.
