This aircraft, MiG-21PFM (L-14) serial number 22731, was delivered to Yugoslavia in 1968 and served with 204th Fighter Aviation Regiment until 1978. Subsequently, it was re-assigned to 128th Conversion Centre at Batajnica AB until 1982, when it was re-assigned to 129th Fighter Aviation Squadron (185th Fighter Aviation Regiment) at Pula AB. During the war with Croatia, this unit moved to Tuzla AB in October 1991 where it remained until withdrawn to Serbia in May 1992. Subsequently, this aircraft was assigned to the Priština-based 130th Fighter Aviation Squadron until 1994 and was scrapped two years later according to the Dayton Agreement. It is shown armed with UB-16-57 pods for 57mm S-5K unguided rockets installed on the underwing pylon and a GP-9 gun-pod under the centreline. While its big, black ‘tactical number’ was removed in October 1991, it retained its ‘silver grey’ overall livery, consisting of two layers of clear lacquer mixed with aluminium powder.
