Anyone have information on the Turkmenistan Air Force?

the rise of gas exports and cottons has certainly helped Turkmenistan’s income.. according to this article..

the Turkmen airforce and army has undergone much modernization and some new arms purchases (in fear of what they saw in Iraq)

at best I found these pics and information..

MiG-23M/U 220/10
MiG-25/U 24
MiG-21 3
MiG-29/U 22/2
Su-7B/17M/UM 3/65
Su-25 46
Mi-24 10
An-12 3
An-24 1
Mi-8 10
L-39 2

however these all reflect older strength and some aircraft are in storage (primarily the MiG-23s)

I figured it’d be easier to find AF pics these days since their leader, the “Turkmenbashi” has been showing off his military in parades..
