Photo Comment

One of four Il-78s based at Islamabad International Airport and operated by 10 (MRTT) Sqdn "Buffaloes" supporting the two JF-17s making the first appearance of type at this year's RIAT. 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
