On the static of Paris Le Bourget 1989, manufacturer Sukhoi brought this Su-25 to the sales show with the hope for international orders. The type made its first flight in 1975 and currently over 1,000 Su-25s were built and delivered to over twenty air forces. This one is a test and development prototype with the manufacturer's designation T8-15 and the code 15 blue. It was used for the testing of the new R195 engine. However, for the Paris Air Show this was replaced by a standard R95Sh engine because the R195 was still secret, and the code was changed to 301 blue which actually was the Le Bourget exhibit code. In 1990 it was converted to a Su-25BM prototype (Sukhoi designation (T8BM-2).

The plinth states that the aircraft has been here since 1978.

Previously on display at the Militaire Luchtvaart Museum (MLM), transferred to the Nationaal Militair Museum (NMM) in 2014.

This Hind was delivered to the Czechoslovak AF in 1980 as 0102 and served with the 51. vrtulníkový pluk (51st Helicopter Regiment). It is now in fake markings as one of the three aircraft exhibits at this small military museum in SE Slovakia.

Sneaky click of an Antei during while it was unloaded at one of the platforms of Sperenberg. The aircraft was first flown on 31 July 1975 and assigned to the air force with Aeroflot titles. The An-22 became RA-0883 on 24 February 1993 with 8th vtap. The transporter was put on a major overhaul with the 308th ARZ in late 1995 but was never completed. The aircraft was last seen at Ivanovo-Severny between May 1999 and August 2004, became derelict near the 308th ARZ hangars and was eventually broken up by Autumn 2004.

The 20 gvardeiskiy / aviatsionnyy polk istrebiteley-bombardirovshchikov (20 gv/apib, ground attack unit) operated with 35 Su-17s, in the M-3/M-4/UM-3 (NATO reporting names FITTER-H/-K/-G) from Gross Dölln (Templin). I visted the base in not the very best weather, but hey its a Soviet FITTER. This M-4 was withdrawn from use by possible late 1994.

This 21 red is possibly originating from '78 and was assigned since with 39 otdel'nyy razvedvatel'nyy aviatsionnyy otryad (39 orao, Separate Reconnaissance Aviation Detachment). The spy plane returned to Kubinka, Russia in '94. It was converted to an Il-20ME after 2000 and reserialled to RF-93610 in mid-'11. The aircraft received VVS Rossii titles in '15. It was written off on 17 Sep'19 near Baniyas (Syria) while operating from Khmeimim (Syria) over the Mediterranean Sea. A Syrian Surface to Air Missile shot it down as it operators thought it was an Israeli fighter, killing 15 crew.
