Apparently Somalia has resurrected it’s Airforce. Currently it does not seem to operate any aircraft, which is not uncommon for African or even some European and Latin American aircraft.
In the past it operated Huntes, MiG-17/21, J-5/-6 and a variety of other aircraft. It got it’s butt kicked by Ethiopia in late 1970s.
