Preserved under a shed in the Lao People's Army Historical Museum in Vientiane is an An-2 marked 074. At one time it was RDPL-34124 but in camouflage colours, so apparently operated by the military. This An-2 was used by the Aviation Division of the Lao Patriotic Front to deliver food, stuff and military equipment from Viengxay to Hanoi (Vietnam) and Vientiane and other provinces in 1973. The museum has many interesting artefacts on display of the Laotian Civil War (1959-1975).
