Delivered to the USAAF in Jun-1944 as 42-93765. In Feb-1946 it was handed over to the UNRRA - United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration from where it was delivered in Mar-1947 to JAT as YU-ABB. On 12-Sep-1967 it was damaged in a severe storm while en route from Sarajevo to Belgrade. It was withdrawn from use and the registration cancelled in Dec-1967. Subsequently it went to the the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd in Apr-1968 where it is in storage. The MiG-21 behind it is 17402.

Not much is known about this Jastreb, except that it first flew with the Yugoslav Air Force as 24122 and later with the Serbia and Montenegro Air Force. It ended up in the storage area of the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd where it was first noted in Jun-1997.

This decoy L-18 (MiG-29B) was built in 1999 during the Kosovo War. It was designed by Lt Col Ivanov, a pilot of 204.FAR and constructed by woodworking company Vojvodina. A total of 6 were built and 5 of them were destroyed in NATO airstrikes. This one survived a hit by an air-to-ground missile because it did not explode. It was damaged but not destroyed. In 2013 it arrived at the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd and by the end of 2017 it was fully restored.

This Beaver was delivered in Jun-1954 as Yugoslav Air Force 0672. In 1968 it was reserialled 70101. It mainly flew on floats. In 1974 it was withdrawn from use and flew to Belgrade for inclusion in the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd. Its floats are kept next to it.

L-17K is the Yugoslav Air Force designation for the MiG-21bis-SAU. The L-17K entered service in Yugoslavia in 1980. As this one is still carrying Yugoslav AF roundels it must have been withdrawn from use before the formation of the Serbia-Montenegro Air Force in 1992. It was first noted in the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd in Jun-1997. It is residing in a dump area. The DC-3 behind it is YU-ABB.

The Aero 3 was manufactured from 1954 to 1958. This one originally was Yugoslav Air Force 40186, it became YU-CZA later. After its active life was over it ended up in the storage area of the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd. The aircraft on the left is Serbian Air Force Utva V-51 51145.

This Il-14 is an Il-14PS VIP version donated by Soviet president Nikita Khrushchev to Yugoslav president Tito. It was built in Apr-1956 and in Jul-1956 it entered service with the Yugoslav Air force as 7401. Around 1970 it was reserialled 71301. In Apr-1973 it arrived at the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd. Apparently it didn't fly much as its total flight time is only 113 hours.

V-51 is the Yugoslav Air Force designation of the U-66. This is the second prototype, and as the first prototype flew 02-Dec-1966, this one will have followed shortly after that. As it still carries Yugoslav Air Force markings, it must have been phased out before 1992 when the Serbia-Montenegro Air Force was formed. It went to the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd where it is kept in the storage area. The tail and the fuselage behind it belong together. The V-51 behind it is 51145.

Manufactured mid-1945 as a Li-2T it first served with the Soviet Union Air Force, identity not known. Around 1946/47 it entered service with the Yugoslav Air Force as 71103. It was renamed Li-3 after the conversion from Shvetsov ASh-62 engines to P&W R-1830-900. Possibly at the same time the serial was changed to 7011. After withdrawal it was painted in fake RAF markings for a movie. It was stored at Belgrade airport, but early 2017 it was moved to the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd grounds.

Built in 1946, it started life as F-BBYB with STA-Société Transatlantique Aérienne registered in Aug-1946. From Sep-1947 to 1948 it was leased to COSARA in then French Indochina. In Oct-1948 it went to the French Air Force as 222. In 1950 it was delivered to the Yugoslavian Air Force where it was serialled 7208. From 1951 to 1953 it flew temporarily as YU-ACF with JAT. At an unknown date it was converted with P&W R-1340 engines. It made its last flight in 1965 when it flew to Belgrade where it was stored. In Jul-1969 it became part of the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd. Click here for a photo from its earlier life as F-BBYB.

Originally laid down as a 10A for TWA, it was completed as a VI-R and made its first flight 24-Jul-1962 with the test registration F-WJAK. It was delivered to JAT 27-Feb-1963 as YU-AHB and was named "Bled". Its last service was flown 19-April-1976 and in May-1976 it was withdrawn from use and stored at Belgrade. In 1977 it was assigned to the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd and in Sep-1978 its registration was cancelled.

This J-1 Jastreb was built in Jul-1970 as 24115 for the Yugoslav Air Force where it was designated J-21. By 1990 it had been delivered to the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd. There is some uncertainty about the cn, many sources say 015, but the museum says 017. It is listed here as 017.

This HP-43 (Yugoslav designation for the Ka-25PL) was taken on charge by the Yugoslav Air Force as 11401 in Nov-1974. From Apr-1992 it was transferred to the Serbia and Montenegro Air Force. It was withdrawn from use in Aug-1994 and stored at Podgorica-Golubovci. Its last flight was 16-Sep-1998 when it flew to the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd. The "IR" marking stands for Istrazivanje Raznoj and indicates that the aircraft is disarmed according to the Dayton agreement.

This Sealand was registered as G-AKLS in Nov-1947. This was cancelled in Mar-1949 to be sold to Trinidad as VP-TBC but this registration was not taken up. It was again registered G-AKLS in Nov-1950 and cancelled in May-1951. It then was testflown as G-14-2 before being sold to Yugoslavia . In Oct-1951 it was delivered with the ferry registration YU-CFK and on arrival became 0662 with the Air Force. Its last flight was made 18-Dec-1962 and it became part of the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd. Reports that this aircraft flew with JAT as YU-CFK are erroneous.

This J-20 (Yugoslav Air Force designation of the P-2) was manufactured in mid 1977 and entered service as 30148. The specific history of it is currently not known but the J-20 was phased out of operational service in 1989. This one ended up in the storage area of the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd and was seen there in a grey colour scheme with the name "Memphis" painted large on the fuselage and an eagle crest on the fin. It was later repainted in the colours of the character "Dusty Crophopper" of the Disney movie "Planes" ("Avioni" in Serbian) as seen here.

The L-14I (the Yugoslav designation of the MiG-21R) reconnaissance aircraft was in service with the Yugoslav and later the Serbia and Montenegro Air Force from 1968 until 2003. That same year 26105 arrived at the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd.

12013 was built in 1961 and served with the Yugoslav Air Force until withdrawn from use in 1977. It was delivered to the Muzej Vazduhoplovstva Beograd on 16 Feb 1977. By looking closely you can still see "013" above the door.

In the Aeronautical Museum's backyard. Jastrebs 23502 and 24410, Oraos 25505 and 25506, and MiG-21 22953 can also be identified.

Part of the outdoor collection of the Aviation museum at Belgrade Airport, this would look so good if fully restored and painted.

JAT stopped flying the Se210 Caravelles in 1976, amazing to see this one is still around.
