KOREAN AIR LINES B707-320C's are already very well represented by us (see our "B707-320c" downloads page) in both 1970's and 1980's era livery/branding .... and in both PAX as well as cargo configuration as follows .... KOREAN AIR LINES B707-320C HL-7432 (1985) KOREAN AIR LINES CARGO B707-320C HL-7432 (1979) KOREAN AIR B707-320C HL-7406 (1987)  KOREAN AIR CARGO B707-320C HL-7431 (1987)  No point in representing these again ;D .... and certainly not just for the sake of a accident/incident  I've, actually, briefly discussed (touched upon only) this earlier KAL incident a couple of times "HERE" in the past .... the last of which was only a few months ago .... as I recall. KAL B707-320C HL-7429, under the command of captain KIM Chang Kyu, operated the airlines flight 902 from Paris, to Seoul, on April 20th 1978. Flying the Polar route .... by means of Celestial navigation .... an error was made which resulted in the aircraft progressively straying some 1000 miles off its intended course/track .... passing, unannounced, over the heavily fortified Kola Peninsula in the process. None of the KAL crew were even remotely aware of the situation .... until, during the early dawn light, the captain, briefly, spotted a jet fighter (bearing the Soviet "Red Star" logo) formating on the starboard side of the B707 .... before promptly disappearing again. The KAL captain immediately began flashing the aircraft lights in recognition of being intercepted .... then repeatedly (3 times) transmitted their KAL call sign to the Rovaniemi ATC center, but, without success. The fighter/interceptor apparently trailed behind and then fired a burst of cannon shell into the KAL B707 .... and which sheared-off some 15FT of the aircrafts port wingtip .... resulting shrapnel also damaged the aircrafts fuselage too. 2 PAX were killed in the attack among 13 other injuries. The B707's cabin decompressed .... and the aircraft was forced to make an emergency descent. Searching for a suitable place to "set-down" safely .... the KAL B707 eventually made a successful gear-up landing on the frozen Lake Korpijärvi, near the Russian town of Kem, and without further injury to any of its PAX and crew, some 40 minutes after the attack. An interesting, and lesser known, fact concerning this particular incident was that the Russian interceptor pilot (Captain BOSOV), apparently, initially, protested his area commanders orders to fire upon the KAL B707 .... which he stressed "did not represent any military threat", but, was ordered to proceed regardless.
