On July 3, 1988, the flight was shot down by USS Vincennes on the Bandar Abbas-Dubai leg, which resulted in 290 civilian fatalities from six nations including 66 children.
The officers identified the flight profile being flown by the A300B2 as being similar to that of an Iranian Air Force F-14A Tomcat during an attack run.
Flight 655 deviated from the centre of its air corridor, an unusual occurrence with commercial flights (it was 3.35 NM off of the 10 NM wide corridor at the time of shoot-down); unfortunately, that deviation had it bearing straight at the Vincennes.

An investigation into the cause was difficult due to Soviet refusal to release the aircraft's flight data recorders.
The crew did not notice this error or undertake the correct INS checks to discover it later due to a "lack of situational awareness and flight deck coordination".
The closest witness to the incident, the Soviet pilot who fired the missile, later confirmed that international standards for interception were not followed, and that he had been instructed by military authorities to lie on television about firing warning shots.
