Foundations Laid for PAF ACE

[krash]

Sounds like PAF is creating its own Top Gun school.

We already have that in the Combat Commander School.

"As an air defense analyst, I am fully aware that the Pakistan Air Force ranks today as one of the best air forces in the world and that the PAF Combat Commanders' School (CCS) in Sargodha has been ranked as the best GCI/pilot and fighter tactics and weapons school in the world". As one senior US defense analyst commented to me in 1991, "it leaves Topgun (the US Naval Air Station in Miramar, California) far behind".-Sergey Vekhov May 1993 issue (pages 46-47) of Airforces Monthly

As i said like the US Red Flag or the Turkish Anatolian Eagle or even NATO Tiger Meet, this will be the PAF version where Airforces from friendly countries will be invited for training and exercises on a large scale....

Will it replace CCS sargodha?

Will it replace CCS sargodha?

Nah I don't think so the exercise will be conducted once a year with Friendly countries... where as CCS is for Domestic training

A much needed step !

It will prove to be great step when it will bring brotherly , friendly countries together and will gain expertise from each others and share their experiences and will design futuristic air force operation strategies, research and doctrine to orchestrate air campaigns with air combat tactics and upcoming fighter jets model by Pakistan & China.

Sounds like PAF is creating its own Top Gun school.

Top Gun was already there, the CCS course was top gun.

What was needed was a Nellis Weapons school setup to reconcile what was happening at the Air war college to an institution and connect it with whatever ideas were developed by students/instructors at CCS (but not necessarily documented) .

Additionally, the PAF sees potential to earn some goodwill by letting ME and other forces train in exercises held at the base.

@Windjammer an extension of CCS or an altogether separate entity?

I understand CCS is only meant to serve the PAF, where as ACE will cover the International arena.
