Hi,
Until this week I was not aware that at least one Russian Su-17M (17 red) was still active in 2000.
The aircraft was operated by the Nizhny Tagil Institute of Metal Testing at Nizhny Tagil AB (also know known as Salka Airport). The airfield is still used by the “Nizhny Tagil Institute of Metal Testing” (testing land and navy artillery of medium and large calibre, ammunition for air-gunnery, air bombs, unguided rocket missiles etc.)
See http://www.ntiim.ru/
Any info about its construction number?
Some more info about Nizhny Tagil AB ;
At the airport since 1951 till 1994 based 765 th Fighter Wing (military unit 40374) 8 Air Defence Corps of the 5th Army Air Force and Air Defense. In service with the regiment were MiG-23P (formerly - fighter-interceptor Su-9.) in 1967 was created 806 th Aircraft Repair Plant (military unit 48742) for the overhaul of Su-9, and later MiG-23UB and MiG- 23P. in 1994 on the basis of the regiment and the 806 th ARZ established in 1454, I reserve base of aircraft (the one contained the MiG-23P and MiG-25), which lasted until 2004. During the history of the airfield here Salk flew a variety of aircraft and helicopters. The most striking events - arrival July 7, 1988 from the Antonov Design Bureau AN-124 "Ruslan" and the arrival of 29 April 1990 the government delegation, headed by Mikhail Gorbachev on a Tu-154.
