This code signifies an injury or condition sustained by military personnel during a subsequent encounter, resulting from the destruction of an aircraft due to hostile fire or explosives during military operations. It specifically identifies the mechanism of injury as combat-related aircraft destruction by enemy action.

Apply this code for follow-up care, rehabilitation, or ongoing management of conditions directly attributable to an aircraft being destroyed by enemy fire or explosives during military operations. This includes conditions like chronic pain, PTSD, or long-term physical injuries stemming from such an event.

• Ensure documentation clearly states the injury occurred during military operations and involved enemy fire/explosives destroying an aircraft.
• Confirm this is a "subsequent encounter" (D) for ongoing care related to the initial event.
• Always sequence this code after the primary diagnosis describing the specific injury or condition.
