Still interested?
In case anyone's still interested, the real reason it got shot down is because it was ambushed. Oh yes.
To set up a SAM ambush you either (a) wait for hours getting wet and mostly dead or (b) employ a French officer to work in the Battlespace Coordinator's office in CAOC 5 in Vicenza and get sloppy with your ATO details. He passes them on. You amass your radars in the TMRR and don't switch them on until the time published by your enemy. So thoughtful.
He's in prison now.
Nice1 jimgriff!
P.S. You're all welcome at my place in South Georgia. We're moving there now.
