Hello Folks,
Hope everyone is having a great evening
I read the report and although it sounds pretty much gloomy but if we are objective for a while we do know that it takes relatively more time, resources and investment to have a functioning airforce than any other branch of the armed forces. Lets not forget that Afghanistan in the 80s had a well functioning airforce flying more sophisticated aircrafts. Now it may take a few years more but I believe given time and resources Afghan airforce should be able to stand on its feet and defend its airspace.
I also urge my Pakistani friends as not to ridicule a nacent security force which is actively engaged in fighting the Taliban while being trained at the same time, the Afghan people, the government and the International community is behind sustained efforts in creating a strong and sustainable ANSF. Pakistan will profit more by having a strong and prosperous Afghanistan than an Afghanistan rocked by civil war.
/Peace
