Delivered in 1976 as LC2288 to the Libyan Air Force. Operated in Malta by the Libyan Military Mission in the 1970s and one of three Allouette 3s left behind when the Libyan Mission departed in 1980. Eventually, after overhaul by Eurocopter, it was operated from 1993 by the Malta Air Squadron as 9H-AAV before being re-serialled AS9315 in May 2000. Withdrawn from use in 2020.
