What happened
During the landing phase at Bagram Airfield, the flight crew encountered significant challenges while attempting to decelerate the aircraft on the runway. Due to the inability to bring the plane to a halt within the available runway length, the aircraft overran the paved surface.
As the excursion continued, the right main landing gear was lost. The aircraft eventually came to a stop, at which point a fire erupted. While the incident resulted in the aircraft being damaged beyond repair, there were no injuries reported among the crew members on board.
Findings
- The crew was unable to achieve sufficient deceleration following touchdown.
- The overrun led to the structural failure of the right main gear and a subsequent post-crash fire.
