What happened
During a combat mission targeting the Yalu River area, a B-29 Superfortress was intercepted and engaged by a MiG fighter pilot. Following the aerial attack, the aircraft's crew attempted to navigate away from the combat zone; however, the plane ultimately went down in the Yellow Sea.
While some members of the flight crew managed to exit the aircraft via parachute, the incident resulted in significant loss of life. Records indicate that nine crew members were killed during the engagement or subsequent crash, while four individuals were successfully rescued from the scene.
