thanks, Msphere, for your comment , BUT, by seeing on airliners.net for these 2 registrations; it’s NOT convincing :apologetic:
On acig.org, you find also more about their HISTORIC Mi-24’s ….:p

another version ; (compare the last words..!)
Sierra Leone’s Air Arm
The Republic of Sierra Leone Air Force was merged with the other services to form the RSL Armed Forces from 2002. Sierra Leone has a very small air component with a limited offensive capability. The status of its equipment is unknown, but the aircraft are probably operable.
operable or not… ?
Just a nice Team of Portugal ;

from which (small ?) country are these Saab MFI-15’s ??? ;http://crimso.msk.ru/Images6/AE/AE03-2/2-1.jpg
friendly, Etienne
I think I’ve found the answer ;
MFI-15 SE-FIZ – med tillverkningsnummer 15.004 – flög första gången 1973-03-27 och såldes till Sierra Leone tillsammans med systerkärran SE-FIY (15.003).
SE-FIY blev skrot efter en kollison med en gam 1976, men FIZ levde vidare, först som GST-444 och omreggades därefter under våren 1975 till GS-P7.
SIERRA LEONE ??
