Incident Narrative
The aircraft was conducting a flight to Katum, transporting construction equipment. During the final approach phase, enemy fire struck the aircraft. The aircraft proceeded to touch down. Upon touchdown, the propellers were set to reverse pitch. This action caused fuel to be sucked into the engines, where it ignited. The aircraft subsequently veered off the runway to the right and came to a stop in flames, with the fire partially destroying the aircraft.
Crew and Damage
The crew comprised five individuals, all of whom escaped the aircraft uninjured. The aircraft sustained partial destruction as a result of the fire.
Investigation Findings
The official investigation into the incident identified the probable cause as the aircraft being shot down by enemy fire. No other causal factors were cited.
