Oh yes they are, the structure on the oldest ones are a bit off (wings missaligned almost 20cm) but because they were built with huge security margins they still very capable, still nimble, i recall one english analist saying that two of these planes could hunt any chopper avaiable, great heli hunters, but they were made for counter-insurgent (a ridicule purpouse due to insurgency nature here in that time)
PD: Sadly we lost one young pilot and a plane a couple of weeks ago
