The 21-year-old pilot, Assaf Ramon, was the son of Israel's only astronaut, Ilan Ramon, who died in the explosion of the space shuttle Columbia in 2003.
An unidentified Palestinian told Israeli TV that the plane had flown low over the southern West Bank before crashing.
"There was a huge fire," the eyewitness said.
