There was one sitting beside the runway at Cairo West, full of bullet holes when
I was flying AWACS from there in 83. The Egyptians were canning it for parts
when the Six Day War broke out. Israeli pilots strafed it repeatedly trying to
make it blow up but there was nothing flammable onboard.
It doesn't show up now in Google Earth so I'm assuming they finally moved it.
