This is an issue with the babylonjs exporter, see https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/transparency-mode-blender-import-issue/14968

It has also been reported before, see blender/blender-addons#81657 (FBX Import error (enum with -1 value -- e.g. as done by the babylonjs exporter from 3dsmax)), will merge these reports.
Since this has been on other exporters as well, see blender/blender-addons#90627 (Fbx import assertion error(unknown location -1)), will look into a quick patch though.

?? How is it the babylonjs exporter? BJS doesn't have a FBX exporter. I exported this from 3DS Max.
Can we re-open it??

where are you getting babylonjs exporter from??

This FBX has a property called babylonTransparencyMode.
Possible values are: ['Opaque', 'Cutoff', 'Blend']
Value is set to -1.
This is invalid usage, see the link I posted above.

Looks like the exporter is available here https://doc.babylonjs.com/extensions/Exporters/3DSMax

But I have a patch ready which will make this invalid FBX still import gracefully (will put the patch up in a bit):
