PAF ready to meet all challenges, says air chief
Sunday, November 28, 2010
SARGODHA: Air Chief Marshal Rao Qamar Suleman, Chief of the Air Staff, Pakistan Air Force has said that combat training in the PAF is being maintained at the highest pedestal of realism and responsiveness to meet all contemporary challenges, says a press release.
He was addressing the participants of Combat Commanders’ Course at Combat Commanders’ School, PAF Base, Mushaf on Saturday.
The ceremony marked addition of yet another elite group of Combat Pilots and Air Defence controllers to the mainstream operational units of the Pakistan Air Force.
The air chief said that nature of the threat continues to change & with it the aerial warfare is becoming more complex. The application of air power under new threat dimensions, at different levels and modes would demand utilisation of PAF resources to the maximum and test our resolve.
“It is for this reason alone, that our force structuring and operational training must continue to evolve progressively to meet the future challenge” he said.
He stressed that “although our quest to modernise PAF continues, we must not fall short of our resolve. Besides our modest effort at modernisation we must continue to focus on maintaining our existing assets fully operational & employ all resources optimally to ensure effective Air Defence of our country. With realistic training and resolve, PAF will continue to contribute significantly in the national defence,” he added He expressed his satisfaction over the training and safety standards of the PAF and CCS.
