Antonov 32 of the Fixed Wing of the then Afghan National Army - Air Corps. The 342 was delivered to the Afghan Air Force in April 1991 in a fine green/brown colour scheme. Late 2004, the aircraft was overhauled at Ivanovo-Severny (Russia) and redelivered to Afghanistan early 2005 in this boring overall grey colour scheme. The aircraft only continued operations for a few years as it was withdrawn from use in 2011. It was scrapped (unconfirmed) at Kabul in 2012.
