Long ago, A HAL Gnat was installed at a place of pride in front of the Maintenance Command HQ Building at Vayu Sena Nagar. This aircraft was replaced by a MiG-23BN and was first reported by Ashit Chakraborty.This was aparently inagurated by Air Marshal S S Gupta, AOC-in-C Maintanance Command just prior to its retirement. The Gnat was then shifted and pole mounted elsewhere.

This small photo from the Sainik Samachar magazine shows the recent MiG-23BN in front of Maint HQ Building. |
The Photographs of the MiG-23BN that have surfaced apart from a small picture from the Sainik Samachar Journal are not great quality. The MiG-23 appears to be in Grey camo scheme as is the norm nowadays.
