Re-birth of the Afghan Air Force

Afghan pilots and maintainers stand before A-29 Super Tucano at the “Re-birth of the Afghan Air Force” aerial demonstration event at Hamid Karzai International Airport, Kabul, Afghanistan, Feb. 11, 2016. Afghan President Ashraf Ghani addressed a crowd of Afghan National Army, Afghan Air Force and coalition partners and spoke of the capabilities of the A-29, MD-530F, C-130, Mi-17, PC-12 and C-208 aircraft, and praised the young air force. The flying service was re-established in 2008 after it had ceased to exist following the collapse of the Soviet-backed Afghan regime in 1992. (U.S. Air Force photo by Capt. Eydie Sakura/released)
