When landing, the pilot reported that the landing gear was not available and asked permission to descend to release the emergency gear. After doing so, the emergency gear was released and the plane landed and took off. The pilot released the parachute as prescribed, but due to the high speed, the parachute broke and the plane went beyond the runway's final stopping area (photo).

Immediately after receiving the information, the competent authorities of the Ministry of National Defense and the Air Defense - Air Force Command directed the Accident Investigation Council to clarify and verify the cause.
