Antonovs, Tupolevs, etc

Recup

As far as I remember one reason Russian a/c are used in Africa is they are easy to maintain... And can take a lot of punishment. All monkey AFs have been flying them for ages and also giving some hot chase to SAAF first world pilots...
Who, by the way like to fly them these days...
