Plane carrying US Defense Secretary Hegseth makes unscheduled landing due to windshield crack

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's aircraft made an unexpected landing in the United Kingdom. A crack in the windshield prompted the unscheduled stop. Secretary Hegseth and all passengers are reported safe. The plane was returning from Brussels. This incident follows similar mechanical issues with U.S. military aircraft carrying senior officials earlier this year.
