On 28 February 1994, two pairs of North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) General Dynamics F-16C Fighting Falcon aircraft shot down five J-21 Jastreb single-seat light attack jets–piloted by Republika Srpska (RS) or Republic of Serbian Krajina (RSK) personnel–in Bosnia and Herzegovina airspace after they had bombed an armaments factory at Novi Travnik during the Bosnian War. The NATO interception was conducted as part of Operation Deny Flight, with the shootdown constituting the first combat action in NATO's history.
