LV-JTN 18.07.1981 crashed TAR - Transporte Aereo Rioplatense Crashed after mid air collision with Soviet interceptor, 50 Km from Yerevan, URRS
LV-JTN was rumored to be smuggling weapons from Israel to Iran during the Iran - Iraq war. Most aspects on these flights are in the mist. It has been quoted that the plane was shot down by the Soviets. But it is more likely that the plane collided with a Soviet fighter trying to intercept the CL-44 forcing it to land.
