Even before his plane was shot at by the Indians, he knew that Pakistani pilots kicked @$$. The numbers tell! 5-1 kill ratio in the air is crazy!

Oh Man, I never heard so much of propoganda ....like nepal established a manned colony in Mars in year 2004. :rofl: :roll: :rofl:

Mr DPRK Underground get you facts Straight.......

PAF ORBAT in 1971:

1 Mirage IIIEP squadron
2 B-57B squadrons
1 F-104A squadron
3 F-6 squadrons
6 F-86 Sabre squadrons

11 Sq. of Morden Plane capable of Launching A2A missiles Vs 8 Mig 21fl Sq and Vintage bullets firing plane.

Given the larger number of sorties mounted by the IAF in 1971, a larger number of aircraft were lost. To all causes and for all types the losses totaled 100 aircraft, of which 90 were probably combat types. In the Eastern sector the IAF flew 2000 sorties and lost 15 aircraft (a 0.75% loss rate). The PAF in the same sector lost 17 aircraft in 50 sorties (a 38% loss rate).

In the west the IAF flew 5000 combat sorties, losing 49 combat aircraft (a 0.98% loss rate). In the same theatre the PAF lost 33 combat aircraft in 2840 sorties (1.16% loss rate). The majority of IAF losses were due to ground fire and the IAF has subsequently criticized the Indian Army for calling in air strikes, when its artillery could have done the job as effectively.

Eherm, lessie.

1. Canada
2. U.S
3. Isreal
4. India
5. Pakistan

I put pakistan at the botom of the list because of the conflicting information I have seen. It's difficult to tell what is propaganda and what is the bonified truth anymore.

MKI do you have source? Also I have heard that the PAF were on defensive so a large number of their kills were on ground attack aircrafts.

Where did you get those facts? Have you ever heard about the squadron in East Pakistan? They were way out numbered and the Indians kept on coming in with fighters trying to take out the base but were always fooled by the dummy aircraft. When the F-86s came out in East Pakistan, it would be a turkey shoot! ACIG.org shows that F-86s shot down MiG-21s!
