a bit of history?

From ACIG.org: "Namely, one of the RLAF T-28 pilots at the time – and one described by the US instructors as the “most aggressive” of all – was Lt. Chert Saibory, a former RTAF-pilot, who defected to Laos in 1960. Chert initially offered his services to Kong Le, but was turned down. Remaining in Vientianne, Chert then joined the RLAF - once Gen. Phoumi returned to power - and flew many combat sorties but was never promoted in rank. For unclear reasons, in September 1963 Chert decided to defect once more and during an airshow that was to be staged over Savannakhet he flew his T-28 away from the rest of formation – to North Vietnam. Instead of commissioning him in their air force the North Vietnamese imprisoned Chert: several months later his T-28 was refurbished and – serialled “963”, in commemoration of the date when it was acquired – became the first fighter aircraft of the Vietnam People’s Air Force (VPAF)."

Pilots Nguyen Van Ba and Le Tien Phuoc flew it to shoot down a US C-123 over Laos in 1964.
