4 aircraft took off to practice air-to-air combat against a swarm of swarms. After the command "disperse" on completion, the first aircraft to turn out as escort was 9314, which was to be assigned to the school circle. Instead, the leader, side number 4602, prematurely began to turn out of the pair, directly in front of the escort, causing it to collide with the nose section of the escort.
At the moment of impact, the aircraft exploded.
Captain Béla Kádár was killed.
