“From what I understand from a witness, the military plane struck the other, small aircraft broadside,” Bill Salisbury, the Berkeley County coroner and chief of the county’s rescue squad, said at an earlier news conference on Tuesday afternoon.

if this was witnessed then it was clearly at very low altitude, in civilian airspace, I don't know if jetboy had active radar on, no, but he should have, further why is he flying that low in that airspace? it's actually pretty obvious what happened.

I think "jetboy" may have actually been a woman.
Supposedly, per media reports, the collision happened at an approximate altitude of between 2,000 and 3,000'.

The vast majority of military flights are in civilian airspace there Chuck Yeager.
Vipers do not have TCAS and he was practicing instrument approaches therefore probably did not have the radar in air to air.
He wasn't hotdogging it at low altitude. As previously stated, the collision happened 2-3K while the viper was under ATC control.
It is a tragic accident, two people lost their lives, and the viper pilot will have to live with it for the rest of his.
You have neither the knowledge nor experience to comment on this subject much less pass judgment.
