The image above depicts the aircraft museum at Kbely airfield northeast of Prague in the Czech Republic. Numerous Cold War era combat aircraft can be seen, including multiple examples of MiG-21 (FISHBED) and MiG-23 (FLOGGER) fighter jets, and a solitary Su-25 (FROGFOOT) CAS platform. Careful observers will also note the presence of a few interesting types not associated with the Czech or Soviet air arms, namely the McDonnell-Douglas F-4 Phantom II, Saab Draken, and Saab Viggen. Kbely is clearly home to an interesting and varied collection of combat aircraft, and should regarded as a must visit for any military aviation enthusiasts travelling in the Czech Republic.ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION
