Two Russian air force pilots died on Tuesday in a crash of one of the country\'s mainline fighter jets, army spokesmen said.
Officials were blaming a technical problem in a MiG-31 interceptor
for the apparent accident, which took place in the central Siberian

Investigators also were checking whether the pilots had violated flight instructions, Interfax reported.
