Assigned to the Fixed Wing of the Afghan National Army - Air Corps, pictured here during its landing at the coalition base Kandahar. Serial 355 was left behind in Afghanistan in August 2021 and was seized by the Taliban. The An-32B was not seen for a while, and was refurbished in 2022/2023 timeframe. It appeared in a striking white colour scheme with blue cheatlines and blue propellor cones at Kabul in probably March 2023. It also carried so-called Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan Air Force (IEAF) titels on the fuselage, with a large IEAF marking on the tail.
