This Angola AF MiG21 had to land in Namibia in 1988, which (until 1990) was controlled by South Africa (due to disorientation of the pilot). The aircraft was preserved in the SAAF museum until 2017, when it was returned to Angola. At the time of my visit, it was parked in such a position that it was impossible to take a picture of the entire airframe...
