This '93 built Il-76 was delivered to Aeroflot as CCCP-76844, was transferred to Tashkent Aircraft Production Association (TAPO) as UK-76844 in Nov'95. It further flew with Krylo (as UK-76844) and Inversija (as YL-LAR). Silk started to operated the Il-76 from Dec'04 as 4K-AZ26 and was seen as such at Kabul. It returned to TAPO but was stored at Tashkent-Vostochny following the closure of the factory. Reported as 76844 without titels and then... possibly as 27695 with the Chinese Air Force from Apr'19: making it look like '27695' in bluish grey c/s with light grey undersides, military roundels.
