On display at IAF Museum Palam, this former PAF Sabre was presented by the Bangladesh Air Force to Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria in 2021 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the War of Liberation. PAF Sabres of 14 Sqn. were based at Tejgaon, which was struck around the clock by the IAF in Dec. 1971, rendering the airfield useless. The Sabre was inducted in the PAF in the mid-50s, opposed the IAF in 1965 and 1971 and was retired in 1980. This Sabre has red circles painted around damage done to it.
