It is a real pity that the tail of this MiG-29 is missing... This picture also shows how messy the new site of the museum is (the museum moved to this location in 2022).

The RBS version of the MiG-25 is a combined reconnaissance-bomber aircraft but without cameras. Instead, it had a Sablya-E side looking airborne radar. It is one of the highlights of the Riga aviation museum, which, since 2022, is located just off Riga airport, in the village of Skulte.

One of two MiG-23s in this museum. This one could do with some restoration... The MiG-23M was the most successful version of the first generation MiG-23 with a total of 1300 produced between 1972 and 1978.

This MiG-27 is marked 60 on the other side (white outline, not white digits, perhaps previously red?). However, on this side, below the grey paint, there is a red code that definitely is not 60. It is hard to tell what it is, but it seems to end with 1. What a beautiful aircraft and what would it be good to give this bird a paint job. Just imagine what it looks like when completely restored!

Another example of an aircraft that was in a much better position and in a better condition in the museum at its previous location. After moving to Skulte in 2022, a lot of rubbish was put around this beautiful Fitter-A.

One of just a few surviving early model Hinds. The Mi-24A entered into operational service in 1972.

Moving the Riga aviation museum to its new location in 2022 was not very beneficial for the quality of the museum. There is less space now, most aircraft are parked very close to each other or tucked away in the bushes. This is also true for the four L-29s that are all parked together at the edge of the premises, including this one.

The Riga museum has five MiG-21s of the Voenno-Vozdushnye Sily (Soviet Air Forces) in good condition. All wear a brown/green camouflage scheme, except this one.

One of the highlights of this museum. The type has also been reported as Tu-22M0. In fact, the current keeper of the museum told me during my visit this is the type, one of only 9 built (Backfire A being its NATO code name).
