    Flight 295 arms-cargo allegations

    Following the destruction of South African Airways Flight 295, allegations claimed that the aircraft may have carried military cargo connected with Armscor or the apartheid government. Some versions referred to rocket fuel or nuclear-related components. The allegations remain disputed; the official account identified an in-flight fire of unknown origin rather than confirming an Armscor arms-smuggling operation.
