New Delhi, May 26 (IBNS) : The wreckage of an Air Force Sukhoi Su-30 jet that went missing near the China border with two pilots on board has been found in a forest area, NDTV reported.

According to reports, there is no sign of survivors.

The area where the wreckage has been spotted is about 60 km from Tezpur in Assam.

The jet took off  on Tuesday morning and suddenly went off the radar near the Doulasang area of Arunachal Pradesh, bordering China.

The Sukhoi Su-30 is a Russian-made, twin-engine fighter for  air-to-air and air-to-surface missions.

The first of the Su-30 planes were inducted by the IAF in the late 1990s.
