Last I knew, not on combat missions. Even if they are, so what??? Is the loss of the life of a female pilot somehow more significant than the loss of the life of a male pilot?
Both died in the line of duty, fighting for the freedom and security of their fellow Americans. We will wait until the families are notified and the names are released.
Either way, gender is a moot point. God bless and keep our brave soldiers. Be they men OR women.
