Soldiers with Czechoslovakian Vz.59 machine guns.
*first former Soviet Republic to field this weapon. (first time I have seen this weapon in their arsenal)
Romanian PSL (similar to SVD)
First time I have seen Tajik forces with this weapon. (fourth former Soviet Republic to field this rifle)
Interesting!
The Tajik MOD must have run out Soviet small arms to issue!? These are Hungarian (Маҷористонӣ) AK-63D (AKMS) rifles!
First (and only) former Soviet Republic to field this version. (Republic of Georgia imported AMD-65's in 2004-2006 time frame.)
I have just discovered that on googlemap, in Tajikstan, at the air base of Dushanbe/Gissar one can see 2 Su-25, 2 MiG-29 & 2 Su-24 !
However, Tajik AF is not known to have such combat aircraft, only helicopters and L-39C.
