This is a question more on PAF in general.
When the Pilots are airborne and lets say they're engaged in a dogfight.
Do they speak Urdu or English to each other? Or both?
For formal stuff, like the vectoring in to a track, technical procedures etc, they use English, but Urdu and even Punjabi is used most of the times, there is no bar to it. For example if somebody sees a enemy fighter behind his wingman, he would say 'tere peechay hai'.
Once I was listening to the frequency of a helicopter, the pilots were talking in Punjabi with another heli!!! Aj mausam bara kharab aye sir jee, othuun jaldi nikal ana aye, raat nhn rehna uthay!!!
