Photo Comment

Built in 1975, delivered to Aeroflot's West Siberia division here at Novosibirsk and transferred to Sibir in December 1994. Registration cancelled in March 2004 as sold to Sudan and shown in official documentation as going to AZZA Air Transport, but by May 2006 was seen in service with the Sudanese AF as 26253 based at El Fasher. Given serial 7705 by August, it was equipped with wing bomb racks. Damaged beyond repair at Khartoum in April 2023 during fighting between different factions of the military
