Delivered to the Bophuthatswana Air Force as T310 in 1988. Transferred to South Africa as 8021 in 1994. Noted as withdrawn from use in 2012. Possibly as a result of an accident at Bloemspruit Air Force Base in 2008. Bophuthatswana was a Bantustan that was declared independent from South Africa in 1977. The United Nations and international community refused to recognise Bophuthatswana (or any other Bantustan) as an independent state. It was re-incorporated into South Africa in 1994.

The Bophuthatswana Defence Force established a small air wing at Mmabatho in 1981. The air wing became the Bophuthatswana Air Force in 1987 and remained as such until integration into the SAAF after the bantustans were reintegrated into the RSA. T400 was returned to Pilatus and eventually ended up with the Chadian Air Force. Photo: Phillipe Colin
