The only medium transport type in service with the RV i PVO was the An-26B, 15 of which were available as of June 1991. Two were undergoing overhauls, seven served with 679th Transport Aviation Squadron at Pleso, and six with 677th Transport Aviation Squadron at Niš. From the beginning of the crisis in Slovenia, most were concentrated at Batajnica AB, which became the main hub for airlift operations. Eventually, all the aircraft from Pleso – including the example shown here, serial number 71385 – were transferred to Serbia and 677th Squadron maintained a permanent detachment of four, then six aircraft at Batajnica, while all others were concentrated at Niš. During the fighting of 1991, Yugoslav An-26s flew a total of 902 sorties. The entire fleet wore the same camouflage pattern applied in dark sea grey (BS381C/638) and dark green (BS381C/641) on top surfaces and sides, and PRU blue on undersurfaces. (Artwork by Tom Cooper)
