The Flogger-H ground attack fighter was the first variable geometry aircraft with the Bulgarian AF and was in service from 1976 to 2002. This particular plane first flew in June 1981 and made its last flight in February 1998. It was moved from Cheshnigirovo AB to the museum in 2004 and is the first plane to be seen when one enters through the entrance gate.
