PAF gets first airborne early warning aircraft PAF gets first airborne early warning aircraft ISLAMABAD: The first air-to-air refueller aircraft of the Pakistan Air Force has arrived, a PAF spokesman said on Saturday.

Three more refueller aircraft are expected to be delivered to Pakistan by mid-2010, the spokesman said, adding that PAF’s overall potential in terms of its effectiveness to defend the airspace would be enhanced by virtue of its capability to refuel air defence aircraft in air.


With this facility the PAF has joined the rank of those developed air forces which have the air refilling system.

An aviation expert said this was a force-multiplier ability because the strength of the existing number of fighter jets would be doubled with the induction of the refueller aircraft.—APP
