Indian Air Force's Most Successful Airstrike (And They Didn't Even Know About It)

Ғылым және технология

In the 1971 Indo-Pakistani War, both Air Forces launched numerous counter-air missions. Indian Air Force often used Hawker Hunters. Equipped with four powerful cannons, they could effectively strafe any enemy aircraft caught in the open. On 8 December, four Indian Hunters from No 20 Squadron attacked Murid airbase and they estimated their effectiveness to be quite good. They thought they had damaged a transport aircraft and two MiG-19s. The real truth would remain hidden for seventeen years and it would come from an unexpected source.

    The place where India truly triumphed over Pakistan was the co-ordination between the different branches. Just airframes are not the war. India and Pakistan had similar capabilities for most part in 1v1 scenario. However, Indian Airforce would provide beyond excellent support to it’s ground and naval forces in 65, 71, and 99. That's something PAF never could do properly.

    Great presentation. You may want to make a video on an Indian pilot destroying Chuck Yeager's aircraft during the 1971 war. The pilot, Admiral Arun Prakash, then a Lieutenant, was from Indian Navy, a Sea Hawk pilot who was sent to the Number 20 sqn of IAF on deputation during the 1971 war and flew the Hunter. He lead a strike on Chaklala air base on 4th December where he first targeted a water tank thinking it to be the ATC tower, and then went on to destroy Chuck Yeager's beechcraft. Admiral Arun Prakash went on to become the Chief of Indian Navy

    @@olddiver PAF had moved away all its assets from the forward Chaklala air base, predicting an IAF strike. They forgot to inform Chuck Yeager though. The only aircraft at the base was his Beechcraft. It was still a significant raid, as it was seen as India's way of hitting back at US, the latter was supporting Pakistan in 1971 war. Infact the then US ambassador Edward Ingraham described in a book that how frustrated Chuck Yeager was, blaming the then Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi of instructing the Indian pilot to target Yeager's aircraft. He even sent a top priority cable to the Washington asking for "immediate countermeasures." Edward Ingraham later described this incident as the Indian way of giving Uncle Sam ‘the finger’!

    In 1971 war, India achieved full air superiority at easter sector within two days. While in wester sector it took 5 days to achieve full control of Pakistani air space. 1971 war witnessed might of Indian Navy. Indian navy destroyed one-third of Pakistani naval strength and lost only one frigate in process, it was the most successful Naval war in the world.

    Leave this case aside. The bravery of sqdn ldr Devayyiya came into light through Pakistani Pilot only and that too after he retired from PAF. Then only IAF'S top brass were awaken and took action. Sqdn ldr A B DEVAYYIYA was awarded MVC ( POSTH ) in 1988 for his feat in 1965. KAISER TUFFAIL is a very nice person. He's not bias. He saved Flt Lt NACHIKETA from certain death. He behaved just like senior should behave with his junior. He wrote a book " A HARD NUT TO CRACK" on IAF's only PVC Fg Offr NJ S SEKHON. He wrote, " SOME ENEMIES ARE ALSO RESPECTABLE ".

The Battle of Longewala, where 120 Indian soldiers and 2 jeep borne anti tank guns went up against 2 Pakistani Mobile infantry brigades consisting of more than 2000 soldiers, around 40 tanks, a field regiment and 2 artillery batteries, and WON. They held them back till the morning when IAF could send air support. 35 tanks destroyed, around 500 vehicles abandoned, hundreds killed and the rest injured and retreated, for the loss of 2 Indian soldiers, 1 recoilless rifle, and the biggest casualty were 5 camels lmao.

    India was under pressure from United States of America to stop the war in Bangladesh and also asserted pressure on French to not supply and support the equipment needed to do those fittings of French missiles on British aircrafts India was also under British pressure saying don’t use hunters and NATS of British origin in that war pakistan didn’t had the knowledge and technology to fit those AIM9s in those aircraft that job was done by American technicians instead of all that international pressure we fough and won I think it’s the habit of white pple to interfere and comment on wars they practically and politically have nothing to do with proven by the fact u say that comment about a topic u have no knowledge of and have nothing to do with got my point gentleman
