Unfortunately, during the last decade, there are several catastrophes occurred caused by direct military action in civil aviation. Flight MH17 was shot in Ukrainian airspace by a surface-to-air missile on 17 July 2014. Passenger flight PS 752 was classified as an intruder fighter by the air defense system and shot by a surface-to-air missile on 8 January 2020 in Iranian airspace. Both cases happened in open airspace for civil aviation with normally provided air-navigation services. During 2024 the airspace of Eastern Europe is under the wide GNSS jamming action which significantly affects civil aviation. In the paper, we provide deep trajectory data processing of the J28243 (AHY8243) flight, which crashed on December 25, 2024, whith data transferred by Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) technology. The algorithm of the invert dead reckoning method is used for the recovery of lost data as a sequential process. Results of the analysis show clear, well-documented cases of direct GNSS jamming and spoofing action of civil passenger airplane which resulted in the crash. Results of the analysis show problems in civil-military coordination which reduce the safety of international civil aviation.", isbn="978-3-031-91992-3" }
