The lawsuits alleged the plane was overburdened, as the.” plane could, at most, safely transport just one 12-ton vehicle. Further, the lawsuits alleged the restraints used to keep the vehicles in place were “insufficient” and “in poor condition.”

Shortly after takeoff, restraints failed, sending an armored vehicle through the plane’s tail, damaging the plan badly enough to make it unflyable.

sending an armored vehicle through the plane’s tail,

Watch the video again. Nothing comes out through the tail, and the tail is intact on impact.

The plane stalled. Could be pilot error, mechanical malfunction, or load shift, but nothing popped out the back end.
