Photo Comment

One of 18 Ouragans delivered procured from Israel by El Salvador to circumvent the arms embargo put in place by the US. The type was used extensively in the civil war between 1980 and 1992 and following the lifting of the embargo were replace by Cessna A-37s. Several have been preserved but 701 was scrapped in 2002
