This aircraft was originally CCCP-76675, later operated by the Ukrianian AF as 76675 and sold to Pakistan at the end of December 2010. It was upgraded in Ukraine and re-delivered to the PAF in early 2022, just before the Russian invasion of Ukraine This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
