What happened
During a scheduled reconnaissance flight originating from Đà Nẵng, an aircraft lost all radio contact with ground stations shortly after its departure. The mission was being conducted over the region of A Rơh, situated approximately 80 km southwest of Đà Nẵng and close to the border of Laos.
Following the loss of communication, no wreckage or physical evidence of the flight was recovered. Despite search efforts, there has been no trace of the aircraft or its crew members found in the area. The flight involved a total of seven crew members who were on board at the time of the disappearance.
Findings
Investigations into the disappearance suggest that the aircraft was likely destroyed by enemy fire while operating in the region. This event resulted in the complete loss of the airframe and all personnel on board.
