Kaiser Tufail clarified in his latest book that only 3-4 IAF aircraft were lost in air combat in east pakistan in the entire war. He explicitly called the claim of 10-11 air combat kills a war time exaggeration.Really, is that why IAF carried out continuous day and night attack on the base for the rest of the war losing 17 aircraft to Pak gunners in addition to 11 lost in aerial engagements with PAF.
He also said the same thing in his blog in 2012:
http://kaiser-aeronaut.blogspot.com/2012/10/the-last-stand-air-war-1971.html?m=1At least three enemy aircraft (and possibly four) were downed by No 14 Squadron pilots
If that is the case Pak would have able to provide evidence of atleast one such case of IAF hiding losses in its official histories released since 1980s.Kaiser Tufail only claims 100% confirmed kills with evidence. And we all know India is an expert at hiding evidence of losses.
But I have been tracking Pak military history since 1983 and not a single one has managed to do that
