From what's available, in the TUAF543 crash, tail separated first. It was found in a location farther from both the wing assembly and the cockpit and it can't be seen on the videos.

you are right!

The whole ordeal had made me remember that in the past we supposedly were to co-produce the Ukrainian An-70 plane to replace our fleet some years ago. Whatever happened to that? I had completely forgotten about it until this tragic accident.

We need an engine to make our own cargo transporter, tanker and passenger planes. We can wait until after our Kaan engine design work is complete for a focused work but we should start its design work as a side job at once. The world is going towards self sufficiency rather than codependency.

I can’t see propellers on the left hand side inner engine.
As per the US C130 accident shared by @Tornadoss at a previous post here, the propeller blade may have broken off and sliced the front cabin off the fuselage. Engine parts hitting the tail and fuselage plus extreme stress could have broken off the tail portion.

We can only guesstimate about it. It will take 7-10 days for the black box information to be fully analysed. So best is to wait.

But whatever the cause it is a tragic event that should teach us to take precautions so that nothing like it can happen again.

Wouldn't make sense in terms of finance. Low potential of foreign sales also Turaf doesn't expect an embargo on Logistics equipment
