On June 24, 1965, a Toofani (IC698), nickname given to Dassault MD-450 Ouragan in #India violated the Pakistani border. A pair of F-104s take off to intercept the intruder, which is forced to land in Pakistan.
he pilot, Lieutenant Rana Lal Chand Sikkawew, would return to India sometime later, but the device was requisitioned and preserved at Peshawar Airbase as a war trophy.

Indian Air Force Vampires were forced out of fight on the very first day of September, 1965 war when PAF F-86 Sabres shot down 04 Vampire Jets.
Just like poor employment of MiG-21 in 2019, IAF also employed an ageing jet in 1965 thus bringing itself usual embarrassment.

Air Defence Alert (ADA) Barrack of PAF Base Mushaf during the Soviet-Afghan War.
These pilots flew constant Combat Air Patrols all along the Pak-Afghan border neutralizing threats posed by Soviet and Afghan Air Forces.

September 1965:
Gun Camera footage shows a victim of Tail Chopper's excellent shooting at Barrackpore IAF airfield (near Calcutta).
The strike targeted some aircraft parked in the pens and some on the tarmac and claimed one C-119 Packet, one Dakota, and one Canberra.
