Haunting video posted to YouTube on Friday shows previously unseen footage of Iranian military aircraft’s tragic crash almost two years ago.
On September 22, 2009, the Iranian IRIAF Il-76MD “Simorgh” jet plummeted to the ground in an accident near Tehran, claiming the lives of all seven people on board.
It has been reported that the crew reported an engine fire. While maneuvering for an emergency landing at Tehran-Mehrabad Airport (THR) runway 29L the radar dome detached, striking the tail fin. Control was lost and the airplane crashed.
