Question

Nige

No report of an explosive event
The article I linked to above states in the first paragraph

The BOI concluded that the aircraft was destroyed by fire after detonating an anti-tank mine on the Tactical Landing Zone. The explosion caused significant damage to the aircraft's landing gear, resulting in debris puncturing the left wing fuel tanks.
Sounds fairly explosive to me
