353rd Reconnaissance Squadron

The armed conflict of the spring of 1992 engulfed Herzegovina and therefore the squadron's home air base: one J-22 was hit by a Strela-2M rocket, but managed to land; on the stand, another plane was badly damaged and it was clear that the aviation had to go east.

[1] After the Dayton Peace Agreement, a sub-regional arms control mechanism was agreed upon and the number of combat aircraft (counting scouts) was reduced to 155 pieces.

The J-21s went to the museum, and the 10 IJ-22 Eagles continued to fly, but due to the reduction in the number of aircraft at the Batajnica Air Base, the 352nd Reconnaissance Squadron, which used 2 MiG-21Rs and 4 MiG-21Ms, was disbanded.

Foreign TV camera footage recorded the flights of J-22 pilots over northern Albania, where terrorist training centers were located.

The last attempt to save reconnaissance aviation was the integration of aerial photo cameras from the J-22s on two MiG-21bis, but they had to return to fighter missions due to the lack of dedicated aircraft.
