Azerbaijan Airlines Flight 8243, which crashed on Christmas Day, may have been hit by a missile.

Yesterday, Christmas Day, Azerbaijan Airlines Flight 8423 Embraer E190, which was heading from Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, to Grozny, the capital of the Chechen Republic of Russia, declared an emergency and crashed while attempting to land in Aktau, Kazakhstan.

According to the Reuters article posted an hour ago, there were a total of 67 people on board the aircraft, 62 passengers and 5 crew members, of which 32 survived and were rescued.

The pilots reported problems with the control system when the emergency was declared, and there was speculation at the beginning that the accident may have been caused by a bird strike. However, as photos and videos were released after the accident, the possibility of a missile attack is emerging.

If you look at the rear part in the photo above, you can see a small hole.

If a jet engine is damaged, the fan blades may fly off and create a hole in the fuselage.

The E190 model, which was involved in this accident, has its engine located further forward than the center, so even if the engine explodes, the debris cannot reach the rear.

It is certain that hundreds of pieces of metal penetrated the rear of the plane, and then the missile…

The wake of the accident plane is still a mystery.

The crash site, Aktau, Kazakhstan, is far from the original Baku-Grozny route, and many of the tracks appear unclear on Flightradar due to GPS jamming.

It is expected that there will be controversy in the future about where Azerbaijan Airlines Flight 8423, which had many Russians on board, was hit and who was responsible.
