The OMAR Mine Museum (OMAR = Organization for Mine clearance and Afghan Rehabilitation) in Kabul city unexpectedly showed me a number of preserved aircraft. Several former Afghan Air Force aircraft and helicopters were on display, but the war badly damaged most aircraft as well as the infrastructure of the museum. Luckily a large wall around the museum saved the inventory from further damage. This Su-7 was a composite aircraft (two construction numbers were seen 5806 left and 5804 right main wheel bay). The Fitter was repainted with donated money. This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
