Radictistan Automotive Works Flight 241 was the bombing of a Radictistan Automotive Works corporate jet shortly after takeoff from Norcust-Hartfer International Airport in the Radictistani County of Norcustsur. All nine passengers onboard the Yak-40 trijet were killed in the explosion and subsequent crash as well as the three crew members. A thirteenth individual was injured on the ground by the falling debris. The victims included four Vice Presidents and the Chief Engineering Officer, Stefan Selonik. The investigation, conducted by the National Air Transit Authority and the Royal Security Police, found that the aircraft had been brought down by an explosive device made from RDX and PETN.

Responsibility for the attack was claimed by the Communist Party of Radictistan, a communist terrorist group seeking the overthrow of the Radictistani government and the creation of a worker's state. Radictistan Automotive Works, the country's largest motor vehicle manufacturer, was targeted because of its close ties to the Royal Family of Radictistan. The perpetrators have not been apprehended to date.
