Photo Comment

The East Germany Air Force took delivery of this Fishbed in October 1973 and said goodbye to it on 3 October 1990. A month before that, this pciture was made at the flightline of Preschen where the aircraft served Jagdgeschwader 3. The Luftwaffe took charge of it as serial 23+40 where it was withdrawn from use in July 1991. The aircraft is preserved in the Deutches Museum Oberschleissheim as 687 since May 1994.
