Run … it's a F-104 (3rd September 1965)

Sqn. Ldr Brijpal Singh Sikand, Commander of an Indian fighter squadron, surrenders to a PAF F-104 in combat.
The F-104 was flown by Flight Lieutenant Hakimullah who became the air chief two decades later. Sikand was taken prisoner and later rose to be an IAF Air Marshal.
This encounter was the most unusual event of the 1965 Air War.
