huh? how is postings news updates on the servicemen KIA in the Y-8 crash trolling? no matter who's tweeting doesn't make it less true

on that subject, seems like most of the servicemen were navy with two exceptions being AF pilots, why would Y-8 carry AF pilots? typical crew would consist of half a dozen people. makes you think where the two other AF pilots came from, maybe a separate duo seater?


also, seems like the deep sea salvage ship is still hanging around the crash site, still fishing for something after 20+ days

Judging by the publication of the image of the hearse, at least we can deduce that they found the bodies of the pilots and crew onboard the aircraft, which is something. Hope they find the cause of the crash and prevent it from happening again.

That’s the problem, if you use Y-8 in someplace like Harbin which is close to Russia, it wouldn’t face those problems, Cuz Y-8 uses the same deicing devices as An-12 does, it doesn’t handle high humidity well, nothing to do with winter/summer, it’s always freezing when you are flying 8000 meters high.
The KJ-200 prototype accident (2006)also happened in a not-so-cold area(Anhui province)
KQ-200 uses Y-9 platform, doesn't it? It's a very heavy upgrade from initial Y-8 models, so I doubt it would suffer the same problems.

@ecaedus please try not to quote trolls that has a clear anti-China agenda. Their information is most likely inaccurate or straight up lies.
