    Tu-204
    The Cubans can't get new Western equipment

    They operate worldwide bar the us.

    The last operational TU-144
    Difficult conditions for a picture, but a very rare aircraft.
    This was the TU-144 leased to Boeing for test purposes.
    It has flown with in the last 2 years.
    All the others were either scrapped ot withdrawn from use.
