Attack squadron 1/22 'Ain' was based at Fort Lamy (now N'Djamena) in Chad with Skyraiders from 1969 till 1975. The Armée de l'Air unit was then replaced by six aircraft flown by French mercenary pilots, including this airframe. The badge on the nose does not seem to have been used by ELAA / EAA 1/22 'Ain'.

Some warbird owners vehemently deny that their plane, with only an original c/n plate or a few small parts, is a replica. Having a new designation, the Lycoming-powered Yak-9UM makes no false claims of being completely authentic. This aircraft even says 'Replica' on the canopy frame, although I'd say it is an original UM. It also wears the text 'Москва' (Moscow). Soviet WWII aircraft often wore slogans in this fashion, rather than names.
