PAF successfully tests air-to-air refuelling capability - Lahore_Real_Estate - 03-22-2010 03:30 PM
ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) on Sunday successfully tested its air-to-air refuelling capability.
The test was part of the on-going High Mark-10 exercise which began a week ago. The first air-to-air refuelling aircraft took active part in the exercises and ably refuelled two fighter aircraft in the PAF’s inventory, a senior officer of PAF said. The PAF is expecting delivery of three similar refuelling aircraft by June this year.
He said the attainment of this capability has greatly enhanced the effectiveness and capability of the PAF in defending the country’s airspace. The area of exercise High Mark-10 is spread over the entire country from Skardu in the north to the Arabian Sea in the south. The exercise has been tailored to include joint operations with extensive participation from the Pakistan Army and the Pakistan Navy. High Mark-10 is aimed at conducting operations in near-realistic tactical environment while integrating new inductions and providing role-oriented training to combat and support elements of PAF and other services. app
