A US Air Force statement said a military aircraft was forced to abort its take off on Saturday morning (local time) and then caught fire, but the cause was unknown.
The Australian and British air forces are at Nellis Air Force Base taking part in a three-week air combat training exercise, known as Red Flag, with the US air force, navy, army and marines.
The exercises typically involve a range of attack, fighter and bomber aircraft.
US Air Force Colonel Michael Mathes says this year's Red Flag is the largest ever and was trying a few new and different things to previous training missions.
