Retired Helicopters Displayed at Pakistan Army Museum in Lahore

BTW, I think RT-33As were never painted in this grey colour scheme during their years of service with PAF.


Would have been nice to see RT-33 in a colour scheme actually sported by the aircraft during its service with PAF like for example this RT-33A serial number 491/53-5491.

According to a gentleman from United Kingdom, the Bell AH-1 Cobra attack helicopter at Pakistan Army Museum Lahore is probably joined tail and front section of two helicopters i.e. serial numbers 79-23216 and 83-24191.


OH-NG (Ohio National Guard) markings and number '23' before painted '216' visible on helicopter tail fin.

Number 191 painted on nose section. Also scribbled on nose is "Received 18 OCT 01" (October 18, 2001).


United States Army markings visible below Pakistan Army markings on helicopter tail boom.

This Mil Mi-24 gunship/attack helicopter and low-capacity troop transport is a new addition at Pakistan Army Museum in Lahore. It's without serial number and operator's markings. Probably an ex-Afghan or Soviet machine that landed in Pakistan during Soviet-Afghan War (1979-1989).









The Bell AH-1 Cobra attack helicopter has received a new coat of paint and is also now without serial number and operator's markings.

They should also move the 720 at the Lahore Planetarium to the Army Museum to show PIA’s contribution to Pakistan’s defense

Merely parking the acft in open does not make it a museum, these have to be maintained, cleaned and looked after. What a deplorable condition these acft are.

This Cessna 421 Golden Eagle was originally owned by National Construction Ltd (NC) a big construction company of 70s, which used this aircraft for their projects in Saudi Arabia. From there it was bought by FWO, then transferred to Army Aviation and towards the end of its service was transferred to Askry Aviation for civilian charter.
