The Al-Abqari satallite incident also known as Operation Zdrobitor de stele (Pavulturilori: Star Smasher) was the interception of the Sconian Al-Abqari satallite by the Royal Pavulturilori Air Force on 5 April 1996. Ths incident would be the first recorded instance of space combat and first operational use of an ASAT.

Background

On 11 May 1995, the Islamic Republic of Sconia launched the Al-Abqari satallite to space from tbd launchsite, while claiming the satallite to be a weather satallite, the Kingdom of Pavulturilor claimed that it was an Armed satallite in direct violation of tbd agreement, and that if the satallite was to pass over Pavulturilor, they will have every right to shoot it down.

The incident

The Pavulturilori FA-12 "Arbaletă" that intercepted the Al-Abqari satallite

The following year, on 4 April 1996, the satallite would enter low orbit above Pavulturilor, which issued a final warning to Sconia, that if it was to not make the satallite self desruct within 24 hours, it would resort to destroying it itself, Sconian officials refused and stated it would be illegal for Pavulturilor to do so.

The following day on 08:00 WPT 5 April 1996, the Royal Pavulturilori Air Force's Stratigic Defence Command launched a Săgeată 2 missile to intercept the satallite, after a missile launched from a Pavulturilori FA-12 "Arbaletă" impacted the satallite, but failed to destroy it. The Săgeată missile would successfully intercept the satallite 10 minutes later in 08:10 WPT and destroy it.
