(CNN) — A B-2 stealth bomber crashed early Saturday morning local time in Guam, according to the Air Force.

Two pilots who were aboard during the crash, at Andersen Air Force Base, ejected from the bomber and were in good condition afterward, according to an Air Force statement.

The pilots were from the 509th Bomb Wing. The military didn’t release their names.

Emergency responders were on the scene of the crash. A board of officers will investigate its cause.

The crash is the second in three days of an Air Force craft.

An Air Force fighter pilot was killed Wednesday after two F-15C jets collided during a training exercise over the Gulf of Mexico. The planes were from the 33rd Fighter Wing, a combat-flying unit out of Eglin Air Force Base near Pensacola, Florida. E-mail to a friend
