A mechanic accidentally shot down the F-16 of the Belgian Air Force. Incident details

Details appear of what happened to the F-16 the other day aviation base of the royal belgian air force florenn. Recall that initially it was reported that the F-16 was seriously injured during the "incident during the repair." It was also added that the second F-16 plane at the same airbase was damaged due to some kind of collateral effect. The incident occurred on October 11th.

So what happened at Florenn Air Base in reality?

It turns out that during the operability test of the aviation gun, the mechanic of the Belgian Air Force overdid it and carried out a shot. Reports the edition about it "Business Insider". The material states that a technical service employee got from a cannon into an airplane, which at that moment was preparing for flight. As a result, the plane exploded on the runway.

The F-16 of the Belgian Air Force is completely burned out. The whole territory of the airbase was clouded with thick black smoke. The flames spread to another fighter standing a few meters away, which suffered not so much.

Serious injuries and burns were received by two technicians who prepared the plane for flight.

According to the latest data, the aircraft that exploded as a result of falling from an aircraft cannon cannot be recovered. This can be judged by cutting frames in the video:

It is reported that a commission is working that ascertains all the circumstances that led to the firing of an aircraft cannon.

If the gun is from another F-16, then this is a 20-mm M61A1 (rate of fire of 6000-6600 rounds per minute).
It is, in principle, not adapted for "single" shots. Only the queue.
I propose a drink for the mechanic, so that he would not have anything bad
And the second toast - that would not give him Russian citizenship

A single shot could be fired when the gun was unloaded. By the way, this also happens on ours ...
In general, when working with weapons, the plane (helicopter) must be rolled out to a special platform and the weapons sent in a safe direction.

Come on! Where did you see this? The pilots are just sitting in a cargo Mi-24, playing cards. a gun mount climbs into the cockpit and after a few seconds 4 OFAB-100 fall on the concrete. In short, all jumped into blisters! And on the bombs there were "turntables".

You are probably confused with cases when a missile doesn’t come off during a working power supply circuit or a bomb is not dropped, well, or Block C-8 is not completely unloaded, or if it is skewed when firing a cannon then to a separate site and ... elimination work is carried out.
And so everything happens at regular parking lots, only the old tech puts a red "pennant" in front of his nose, well, they turn on the MIS (a beacon, not to be confused with an inertial ) when include "high" when the radar is working

[Shurik70]

Well, there are different kinds of "rocket failure".
We do not know the details of what exactly happened. This article laid out the facts so that it would be funnier (and I welcome this!)

It turns out that during a performance check of the aircraft gun, the mechanic of the Belgian Air Force overdid it and fired.

I immediately realized that the mechanic had been smearing the trigger with a "beginner" and could not resist when I saw two F-16s in front of him. He probably still quotes Shura Balaganov: "I am mechanically!"

[Govorun]

And you are so tolerant that you’ll drink for your enemies when they’re starting to kill ours .... and yet, someone humiliated and insulted this engineer ??? Maybe yes, but many, no, they laughed at us, we made fun of them, and what is it that would have flashed so badly in your anus .... the same can be seen dying of the treasury, tell me.

[kasatky]

Drinking as a mechanic is not enough. I propose nominating him for the title Hero of Russia for his tremendous effectiveness in destroying NATO military equipment. Two aircraft in one queue! Only the American paratroopers who dropped armored cars without parachutes were better!

[faterdom]

No, not enough for the Hero yet. For services to the Fatherland, 3rd degree. Well, give "ZBZ" before the formation. And not "Hero" - to burn the base with a long lasting effect, so as not to go out. But such specialists are still very busy in Ukraine, they have business there.

[okko077]

Again, a Jewish comrade is nonsense! And the rest of the comments are essentially the same ...
On a military aircraft there is a weapon circuit breaker. It is in the cabin and outside for technical staff. No one will climb into the cockpit without checking the position of this switch, immediately after checking the check on the catapult seat ... If the plane is equipped with ammunition (it doesn’t matter a gun or bombs) then a special flag is hung up indicating that it is forbidden to work in the cockpit and to turn it on ...
Why could a shot have happened? Only because of the skew of the projectile in the cannon and its jamming when all instructions are violated during action in such cases ... But this is a separate conversation ... Most likely this happened and the specialist was not very lucky, and his preparation is surprising ... ..It is very fun to read the comments of "dummies" who do not have the slightest idea about combat aircraft ....

It happens. I used to describe the case when the start of NURSs occurred when the BANO switch was turned on when all gas stations and the main weapon switch were completely turned off ...

[okko077]

I left the concrete in 1991, and if you count the airfield at the school in 1998 ... The case with your NURSs was completely studied back in Soviet times ... There is nothing mysterious there ... The reason is moisture and poor care of the airplane connectors for docking with external beam holders ....

[helmi8]

So they tell you about that - everything happens ... It happens that it seems that the whole ammunition was shot, but one shell remained in some barrel ...

[okko077]

They wouldn’t let him in at a weapon inspection post, after taxiing off the lane, and in wartime they would have thrown it out there .... Just not fulfilling the requirements of the governing documents and instructions is the main reason .....

[basmach]

Oh oh I was in the squadron for a year, then mine. PNKashnik. So on our Su-17М4 in UB-32 missiles were not equipped with two guiding missiles. When you turn on the main combat voltage appeared on them and truncated .. Personally, using the device I was convinced.

[okko077]

Su-17M4 - the native airplane, the best in the ISA, we don’t have such now, everyone was rotted and destroyed at the storage bases ....
Before combat use of UB-32, specialists in AB are obliged to check the start-up circuits with the help of PNK in the configuration used .... I personally made sure that it doesn’t work, we must! If the connectors of the aircraft part for connecting the beam holders of different types without plugs and LSP, water gets into them. and corrosion occurs, which leads to short circuit and even to the complete destruction of the connectors .... IBA aircraft, from our poverty, stood in the open .... And also the shortage of specialists in the state in squadrons, the situation changed with the new organizational and staff structure in the form of ATO ... I wonder how now? On the Su-34 - ATO? And on the Su-25, of which there are very few.? ... The usual Su-25, whose analog complex is close to the Su-17M3, did not stand next to the digital Su-17M4 ... The Su-17M4 is a bomb, not an airplane was, only pests and idiots could destroy such an inexpensive, reliable and simple, everyone’s favorite plane !!!

[okko077]

And how long to wait for its development with the AL-31, with an unchanged wing like C54 / 55/56? ..... We do not have a whole class of light attack aircraft? What to sell countries of the 3rd world? To bomb partisans with expensive Su-34s and gold Tu-160s? This should be done yesterday ....

Anything can happen, I don't remember exactly, but around the year 2003-04 we also had a Su-24M from the arch "from a closed position" fired off. The technician, too, accidentally pressed no to what was needed, and the queue carefully left through taxiing into the forest, though three meters from the "track", there was a field communication center in this forest. We trained. And even earlier, on the gas tank, near the TECh, about the year 1992, the Su-24's blades from the engine "flew out" and this side and the one next to it burned out, while the fire rushed along, they began to shoot ammunition in the cannon, so aptly, through the TECh to our vehicle fleet three arrived. True, too, everyone remained alive. Therefore, there is nothing to be surprised at. Everything happens in life.

[okko077]

Well, you're just some kind of storyteller? Only stupid people can gas in the fuel cell with an unloaded cannon, and that's putting it mildly? You cannot even let an uncharged aircraft into the TEC and the entry must be in the ZHPS ... You can't just press anything in the cockpit so that the cannon fires ... and even in an arched shelter ... in some cases ..... Such half-educated people cannot be allowed to the plane for a "cannon shot" ...

Well, are you just some kind of storyteller?

Not at all. In the 277th BAP opposite the TEC there is a gas platform, before the combustion of two planes there was a house that burned down together with the planes, now there is just KUNG. Here is the only thing that I don’t remember the number of the arch from which the shooting was, it was the ATO parking lot then, there was later board number 2, and then number 29. I drew a tiger on the keel at No. 03 all the time, and restored the firedog at No. 03.

The red arrow indicated the arch from which they shot, the orange mound where they went, if it weren’t for the mound, it would have flown to the regiment’s headquarters, the blue where the hardware was.

In this photo, although it was later, the red arrow indicated the place where the watchtower stood, and the park for that period belonged to V / Ch22329, the blue TEC itself, and the green one indicated where the gas station itself is, unfortunately it’s not in any photo didn't hit.
Tales and myths I do not describe, only real cases that occurred during my service.

Quote: okko077

They didn’t come like that, for example, in the same year 2004, a graduate of the Ussuriysk automobile came to us, so a friend couldn’t distinguish the ZIL-130 from the ZIL-131 by eye and this is not an anecdote or a joke. The truth was then called differently, but this little things

[vik669]

So who said that there are enough fools in the TEC and fools in the squadron more than and above the squadrons and now there is no shortage of them! And everyone knows about locks, too, but you also disabled them to disable them.

[okko077]

I didn’t have it, we in the USSR in the European part had a very prepared ITS .... And an engineer in any specialty was respected by everyone, and pilots in the first place .... right up to the regiment commander ...

[vik669]

So in the year 1998 in Martynovka they dragged MIG-27 with a loaded gun, well, an ensign and checked it — a total of 6 shells and jammed the gun. But the plane was still written off, and the ensign got off with a planer, but how a charged car got into the power supply and it didn’t happen with more sad consequences.

Stop being perverted. Certainly not quite an ordinary event. But in aviation, anything can happen. We had 2 unauthorized shootings in our regiment in 2 years. And if once it was as a result of a missile being sent in the air into the chamber (it was found at the post after landing, a bar with a flag was inserted, when the bar was pulled out, a shot was sent to the parking lot. HP-30). Then the second time, in preparation for flights, the startech on the ground turned off the chassis lock (it does not allow shooting on the ground, it was necessary to turn on the imitation of "chassis retracted"), reloaded the left cannon and 4 shells left. The result is 3 wounded (including himself) and 2 holes with each palm in the left side. The plane stood in the mine for a long time until it was commissioned.
