Or Hrvatsko Ratno Zrakoplovstvo (Croatian Air force).It's a small air force for but we are also a small country.Anyway this video is a presentation of it, and shows why i will probably be joining it in a year or two.

Hey Duh, slightly off topic, but since your are Croation, I just wanted to find out if you have ever been to Vukovar and how does it look these days?

It is still being repaired as it was totally destroyed during the war.And it's still the poorest city in country.

Very cool. Love the old MiG-21's, great airplane. Best of luck.

Well I don't think I'll be flying Migs because the government is buying Gripens.

Some friends of mine missed Miroslav Radic by a hairs breath after being told to grab him for the Hauge, He eventually ended up there.

What a/c is the demo team flying. Looks really similar to the US T6 A Texan II

Croatia is awsome!!! I was in Split for a few days back in 2001. I had a blast while I was there. Hope to go back one of these days.

Good luck on the Air Force thing.

The Gripen is my current "fav. plane today". It is a graceful fighter.

Nice looking plane, even better looking weapons on the first pic. Good luck with the air force Duh!

While the Gripens are great they should keep those old 21s as well. Get the French or Israeli to upgrade them with modern radar and weapons, and those MiG’s would be great interceptors for such a small country as Croatia.

Thanks for the support guys:)
Those prop planes in formation are pc9-s.I see them every morning doing acrobatics over my house.

Xargos they say Croatia has the finest looking women in the world;)
