On 11 September 2025, the Siły Powietrzne RP (Polish Air Force) said farewell to its Su-22 (NATO reporting name: FITTER ) jet bombers. This 509 is furnished in a striking colorscheme, the old camo on the nose section, while the rear shows its last scheme. 509 shows manufacturer date 1 June 1984 and was delivered to the Polish Air Force in August 1984. The aircraft was last assigned to 21.BLT (Tactical Fighter Wing) which commanded the 1.Elt and 2.Elt (Eskader). It has a 40 LAT (years) marking on the tail, referring to the 40 years of service within the Polish Air Force.
