VIDEO: Iranian Air Force Il-76 "Simorgh" AEW crash in 2009



The video was shot from a IRIAF Boeing 707 tanker's boom operator station. You can see the Il-76MD "Simorgh" AEW&C (ex Iraqi Air Force Adnan) going down in flames in the background.

It is believed that it collided with an F-5E Tiger II interceptor on route to Iran-Iraq War anniversary fly-by in southern Tehran.

All crew were killed.
