During take-off, one of the fuel lines broke when switching to the throttle mode. The pilot switched off the afterburner and then requested the ATU to be retracted. After a few moments, however, he decided to attempt take-off, but the ATU net, which had been installed at his request, caught both main runners of the aircraft. The plane split the net in two, which pulled the plane back to the ground.
The aircraft was destroyed, Major Péter Gál was not injured.
