THE ACFT CRASHED ABOUT NINE MILES SHORT OF THE RWY DURING AN ILS APPROACH TO WARWICK, RI IN IMC WX. THE ACFT HAD BEEN CLEARED TO DESCEND FROM 13000 TO 3000 FT. THE ACFT CRASHED OUTSIDE THE OUTER MARKER. THE CO-PLT HAD REPORTED THE ACFT AS INSIDE THE OUTER MARKER. THE CREW DID NOT REPORT ANY ACFT PROBLEMS. THE APPROACH PROCEDURE REQUIRES THAT THE FLT CROSS THE OUTER MARKER AT 1800 FT MSL. 5 MILES FROM TOUCHDOWN. MINIMUM WX IS 200 FT CEILING & 1/2 MILE VIS. SURFACE OBSERVATION AT TIME OF THE ACC WAS 300 FT OVERCAST WITH 1 & 1/2 MILES VISIBILITY. POST ACC EXAM OF THE WRECKAGE FAILED TO DISXLOSE ANY MALFUNCTIONS OR FAILURES IN THE EQUIPMENT.
