Yes, Fire Department’s fault, 100%. The trains right of way is pretty absolute because they can't stop. Physics doesn't care about flashing lights and sirens.

At least it was quick.

AI voice of a F-18 pilots informal report leaked. 
Looks like someone is trying to get a story out 'first'.

These guys were close if they saw the missile launch from the ship and they were told to avoid the ships by 15 miles. That seems to be to imply the ships were in 'weapons free' mode with a 15 mile threat bubble.
From what we are seeing so far, and it is very incomplete and this is pure speculation on my part, my top suspicion is that this is going to come down to very poor pilot training and proficiency in emergency procedures. Many countries rely too heavily on simulator-only training and the use of modern avionics for normal operations. As such, the pilots are just not prepared to handle non-routine events. I have a relative that flies left-seat on 747s for China Airlines and he has never flown a small plane and was somewhat in awe of the fact that I had an instrument rating in small aircraft (I, of course, was in awe of the fact that he could fly the big boys). He couldn't imagine the skill it must take to have to do everything to aviate, navigate, and communicate a small plane (I, on the other hand, can't imagine the skill it must take to manage the systems of such a large and complex machine).
The end result is that when things go wrong, the aircrews simply get overwhelmed and fixate on dealing with the new variables that they forget the basics, like lowering the flaps and landing gear, or making sure to touch down at the approach end of the runway and being willing to execute a go-around, if at all possible, once that isn't going to happen.
The U.S. has had its own experience with the phenomenon, but has aggressively dealt with it. Flight 401 in 1972 crashed because the entire cockpit crew became too focused in figuring out what was going on due to a burned out landing gear indicator light. In response, the U.S. developed CRM -- Cockpit Resource Management -- and trains commercial pilots relentlessly in it, training that has even filtered down and affected how private pilots are trained. But as things change, new challenges to crew preparedness creep in. In 2013, Asiana Flight 104 crashed at San Francisco and it was determined that poor crew proficiency in performing a manual approach and landing in near ideal conditions (due to the instrument facilities needed for the autoland approach that the crew was used to using being under repair) was the cause. The U.S. took this as a wake-up call and increased the requirements for aircrews to routinely exercise manual approaches and perform other normally-automated tasks on a regular basis to maintain proficiency in them. It's telling that there hasn't been a single crash of an airliner on U.S. soil since then.
The cops a few years ago pulling the same illegal stunt. Train wins. I do understand the urgency but you need to get there to help.

And you knew there was a train coming. Trains are required to sound their horn repeatedly starting about 15 to 20 seconds before reaching a public crossing and continuing until the lead locomotive is occupying the crossing. In that video, you can clearly hear the train horn long before cop car starts to move. In fact, it started before the video because the video starts with one long burst, followed by a short and then a long, but the warning blasts approaching a crossing are two long, a short, and a long.
