Former CFT703 was reserialled to SFT-703 by March 2012. The dual seat FT-7 is operated by 5 squadron and was overhauled in July 2017. It is seen here after a heavy rainshower at the platform of its homebase Katunayake. It was planned for a flight this day, but the sorry weather threw a spanner in the works. Although not flying, it's still a beautiful jet fighter!

One of the first two F-7s to have been overhauled locally by July 2017 but possibly not airworthy anymore at the photo date. Previously serialled SFT1401 and CFT703; changed to the shown mark by March 2012.
