Sadly, based on Nellis history, Nellis won't talk if the pilot did not survive.  If the pilot survived they would say so fairly quickly.
Prayers for the pilot, his family and friends.

Per Fox News, the pilot was in training with the Thunderbirds. Having used to live across the street from Nellis, the Thunderbirds usually train over Nellis and Las Vegas so the Thunderbirds going out to the test site is unusual.
