In retrospect, This F-16 has seen and outlived Zia-Ul-Haq, To Musharraf, To Mushaf Ali Mir To Mujahid Anwar Khan.

1983 is closer to 1947 than it is to 2026.
Let that sink in.

He was base commander shahbaz during swift retort. (The f16s which shot down IAF aircrafts belonged to No 11 Sqn based at Shahbaz).

Later he held various key appointments including AOC SAC, DGC4I, DCAS NASTP.

A figure adored by the airmen community of PAF for his sense of welfare.

so, as I understand, he came up from the conditions, where PAF was flying aircrafts life F7 (chinese lower tier Migs), which any modern air force would not fly, in the presence of A4s, F4s, Mirage IIIs, viggins and others.

seems, very un-friendly aircrafts to fly, gave birth to extremely good planners and ever better pilots.

this, un-characteristic mismatching, which is considered a bane in very other air force, PAF somehow excels, to convert into boon!


so, it goes beyond, being a great pilot, it is something else!

importantly, very hard for the enemy to take away from PAF, OTOH, PAF has more to lose, if it changes direction!

Nooo bro. They were Hassan and Nauman who shot down IAF aircrafts.

These are maintenance crew of 11 Sqn. Ghumman sahb loved to give protocol to airmen.
