One of the Su-22s was shot down using AIM-9L while other fell prey to M61A1 Vulcan cannon fire. Wingman was S/L Yousaf (later AM). Radar controller was late F/O Arshad. Qadri was awarded Sitar-e-Basalat. Unfortunately, we lost Qadri when he was Air Commodore commanding Minhas AFB in F-7P crash. Subsequently PAF satellite airfield in Skardu was renamed after him.
