A museum named Omar Mine Museum, somewhere in Kabul city, showed me very unexpectedly a series of preserved aircraft. Several once Afghan Air Force aircraft and helicopters were kind of preserved, but the war in the country badly damaged the infrastructure of the museum as well as the aircraft. Luckily the whole was protected by a large wall, that prevented a possible even worse situation... current status of the museum is unknown. This Su-7 was a composite aircraft (two construction numbers were seen 5806 left and 5804 right main wheel bay. The Fitter was repainted with donated money.

This gunship was a true awesome machine, hard to believe it ever served Afghan forces. Its serial was 334 or 344

Luckily the whole was protected by a large wall, that prevented a possible even worse situation... current status of the museum is unknown. The serial of the Mi-24, from the first series built, was extremely hard to read, it was 344 or 334. Incredible that this ugly machine ever served as a gunship!

A museum named Omar Mine Museum, somewhere in Kabul city, showed me very unexpectedly a series of preserved aircraft. Several once Afghan Air Force aircraft and helicopters were kind of preserved, but the war in the country badly damaged the infrastructure of the museum as well as the aircraft. Luckily the whole was protected by a large wall, that prevented a possible even worse situation... current status of the museum is unknown. This Mi-8T was one of the aircraft in okay condition. Its serial can be hardly read, but its just next to the main gear strut.
