The accession of Poland to NATO brought a number of ex-Warsaw Pact aircraft into service with the Western alliance and aviation enthusiasts have enjoyed their presence at air shows ever since. The march of time steals upon us all and this Su-22M Fitter will not be in service for much longer, making the presence of this Polish Air Force example in the static at RIAT all the more valued: many thanks to the responsible air arm and the RIAT organisers! The world's largest military airshow, with participants from around the globe, RIAT is a must each year for UK aviation enthusiasts at least.
