DME is a bit of a graveyard for the old Tupolev, Illyshin and Antonovs, there are plenty of them gathering rust on remote stands and grassy areas.
Been like that many years, since the 90's although the Airport itself has gone through significant transformation (for the better to compete against SVO2). Suspect some hulls parked upwards of fifteen years, took photo in '04 of IL-62's among others... seem still to be parked there this year!
