The delivery of TAFC F-7s (five F-7TG and one FT-7TG) took place in March 2011.
If you want to believe than all have been lost/grounded since then….
Never mind…. it was just to be sure for this year..
friendly, Etienne
thanks for your replies, MShere…
But… what was [completely wrong ] ???
when happened the delivery of that F-7 ? (first pic)
your second view is of 2011..
the 3rd, 4th & 5th ones (already seen..)(markings not well visible..) are of 2009. !..
THUS I’m NOT really convinced, SORRY…

Another ‘jet-less’ air force ?
The “Tanzanian People’s Defence Air Force’ ? ;
………………………………………………..[ATTACH=CONFIG]222824[/ATTACH]…………………………….[ATTACH=CONFIG]222825[/ATTACH]
for wikipedia /l.m. 31 oct 2013 ;
Today, no Russian-supplied MiG-21s remain in service with the TPDF/AW, and only three or four F-7s remain operational. The TPDF/AW MiG-21MFs are now confirmed to have carried serials – in black or green – underneath the cockpit, but no details about these are known.
……………………………………………….Is it true ?
Anyway, I can’t find any convincing (i.e. of this year, with markings / & in flight :rolleyes:/….) pics of airworthy Tanzanian jets !!

Hello Archangelski,
here you find two (2nd & 3rd ) better views of the former Mozambican government’s ‘coat of arms’… :http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.search?regsearch=C9-CAA
BUT the pics were taken in 1983 !
Compare with (seem identical ) ;

Mozambican ‘coat of arms’…
Does anybody know what the badge is? It’s not the national coat of arms.
Indeed, I think like you,…
Googeling ‘to/in’ Mozambique, I find mainly such (former ?) ones ;

what do you mean for Egypt ?
for wikipedia /updated 22 oct 2013/ :
Two squadrons of F-4s are still in service with the 222nd Regiment.[9]
Units[edit]
Egyptian Air Force

(the full URL :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDonnell_Douglas_F-4_Phantom_II_non-U.S._operators )
Yes, PhantomII & Msphere… when you say ‘Greece’… it means also .. Turkish ;
…………………………………………a recent Turkish accident ; http://www.janes.com/article/27824/turkish-phantom-lost-in-accident
and most probably still in service in (wikipedia);
Egypt, Greece, Iran ,Israel , Japan, South Korea , Spain(?), and Turkey …
(thus…. not really correct !, please tell us..)
