In USAF language, we use the word 'mishap', and a Class A mishap is the worst. Class A is when the event cost more than $2 millions, or worse, and/or flight crew is lost or permanently disabled. For example, on the F-117 early yrs, a ground mishap that caused damages to the 'stealth' coating in excess of $2 millions to repair -- materials and manpower -- would be a Class A.
I do not like to opine on any aviation mishap, military or civilian, especially if it involved an airborne event. Too many variables and the generic 'pilot error' is too emotionally charged. If it is an American (or Western) pilot, many people would immediately jump to 'pilot error' as more a national insult than objective analysis. My reservation about these events are known on this forum. In the end, most people do not have the patience to wait for the investigation report and the thread eventually forgotten. Those who insulted US got their jollies.
