The joint international air exercise Shaheen-VI conducted between the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) and People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) concluded at Korla Air Base in China on Wednesday.
During the three-week long exercise, the PAF and PLAAF contingents participated with modern fighter jets and support elements, said a statement released by PAF.
A PAF delegation also witnessed the last day of joint manoeuvres and participated in the closing ceremony along with high-ranking Chinese officials.
Air Vice Marshal Haseeb Paracha, Air Officer Commanding, Southern Air Command was the chief guest at the closing ceremony and Lt Gen Zhan Shunhou, Air Commander of Western Theater Command, PLAAF was also present at the occasion.
Paracha also flew a mission in a J-11 fighter aircraft of PLAAF.
“This exercise would further strengthen the working relationship between both the Air Forces,” said the PAF.
PAF regularly undertakes similar operational exercises both inland and abroad to remain abreast of the modern air warfare mechanics and share experiences among air and ground crew.
