14th February 1988 [also seen as the 13th]	Royal Royal Thai Air Force	Bronco OV-10C Bronco		411sqn	shot down by Laotian ground fire during a reconaissance mission near Laos border
						Pilot ejected safely and was captured	Co-Pilot ejected safely and was captured.
	Notes: February saw the Royal Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) suffer its first casualties in fighting along disputed border areas with neighbouring Laos. Both countries lay claim to a 30 square mile area close to the Laotian capital of Vientiane some 250 miles north of Bangkok. During the short, sharp battle in the remote mountainous region, rich in timber, a RTAF F-5E Tiger II was brought down by a shoulder-fired Laotian SAM-7 on February 3rd. The pilot was killed. This appears to contradict the report that the pilot ejected safely - or were two F-5s brought down??
