Yeah, the publicly available flight information shows it basically exploded wholesale in mid-air. That doesn't just happen with modern aircraft.

Yes. But suspicious of what?

Lemme be blunt. Some people believe that since this happened at a time military tensions between Iran and the US were escalating, the plane could have been taken down mistakenly by a trigger-happy general as a false positive.

Perhaps. But a general of which side? It was, I think, over Iran, so Iran's air defense would be the logical suspect. And Iran withholding the flight recorders would fit with that.
The more paranoid, of course, will look beyond the logical suspects...

How so? Debris field doesn't look that large and the supposed video of the crash shows burning plane and large explosion on impact to the ground.

The flight information on FlightRadar24 shows no sign of deviation or trouble, then abruptly ends during the ascent. https://www.flightradar24.com/blog/ukrainian-flight-ps752-cr...

That doesn't mean it exploded mid-air. If it exploded mid-air where the FlightRadar24 data end, the debris field would be in the direction of the flight and spread wide. Debris field is in the opposite direction and elsewhere though.

Last time a civilian aircraft was shot down over Iranian airspace it was the US. And while they agreed to some “no-blame” deal including a financial compensation they never actually apologized for murdering 290 innocent people. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_Air_Flight_655
