I don't like plane wrecks because I am absolutely ignorant of airplane types and models etc. Let's see how quickly you can find this one.  Lots of blue dots around the place... |

I don't like plane wrecks because I am absolutely ignorant of airplane types and models etc. i'd say i'm even worse than you! when i first saw your capture, my first reaction was, why would they put a repair shop over there on that hill?!    |

CLUE
JNA stands for the former Yugoslav National Army. Now this former Yugoslav state just got its new name recently after a long debate with the neighbour. The plane is in the outskirts of one of its biggest cities.

ANSWER
There are two plane wrecks on a hill outside the city of Bitola, North Macedonia
They are said to be of the model North American F-86D Sabre but I cannot confirm it.
