"Training in Pakistan was better than that in USA" tells Iranian fighter pilot

[Muhammad Saftain Anjum]

he believes that the level of flight education in Pakistan was better than in the United States. "Perhaps this difference was not known in the time of the Shah, but it was proved in the war. I am really happy to go to Pakistan because the training I received there was very useful in the war. "Many of the children were injured due to low experience flying at low altitudes." (P. 34) Atiqahchi says that the pilots who learned to fly at low altitudes in Pakistan performed this maneuver easily during the years of the Holy Defense. He recounted in his memoirs that because the Pakistanis had fought India many times, they were skilled in low-altitude flights, and in the words of Atiqahchi, Lou Lowell was so-called in their blood that they taught this flight to students like him. Of course, such a flight was considered undisciplined by the Iranian army at the time, but Atiqehchi, after returning to Iran, made such a flight secretly. "During the war, we sometimes had to go through high-voltage power lines," he says. We would not have done it if we had not done some of these indisciplines before, but the Shah's time, because it was the American system, they would not have liked it. "At that time, flying under five hundred feet (one hundred and fifty meters) was prohibited." (Page 89)

"Pakistan was a poor country and made the most of what it had, but Iran was rich but not compassionate."

Our nation has complete faith in our air warriors, no doubt they are second to none.

Real Iranian aerial supremacy came from training on F-4E and F-14 with Americans at 8 USAF airbases .... At one point there were some 70-80 Iranian fighter pilots constantly training in dogfighting, CAP with USAF.

result ....

Just the IRIAF F-14A scored 159 kills on the Iraqi airforce (Mig-25/23, Mirage-F1EQ mostly) while losing just 3 aircraft of their own one of which was a case of friendly fire.

Iran is the only country in the world to have Ace of Aces on 4.0 Generation aircraft with Long-range BVR. Just the top three IRIAF F-14A pilots shared some 32 kills between them.

Yeah so poor that it risked citizen's lives by allowing rookies fly below 500 feet.

PAF has always been one of the best Air Forces. If you read the history from the wars to the projects you will realise how blessed Pakistan is to have PAF.

Real Iranian aerial supremacy came from training on F-4E and F-14 with Americans at 8 USAF airbases .... At one point there were some 70-80 Iranian fighter pilots constantly training in dogfighting, CAP with USAF.

Both USAF and PAF played their roles.


It was PAF pilots who advised Syrians that they should focus on Air Defence instead of matching Air power with Israel because they won't be able to beat Israel even if they train for decades.

A part of me wonders whether the US deliberately tells its pilots to hold back in exercises etc. Provide others with a false sense of security.

Air defense didn't work for them either

Hi,

The USAF trains to the minimum capability level of the trainee foreign pilot.

With PAF they have to be at their best otherwise the Paf pilots would smash thru them.

Lol a single squadron of F-35s would destroy the entire PAF.

 

[MisterSyed]

Why don't you try then?

 

[MastanKhan]

Lol a single squadron of F-35s would destroy the entire PAF.

Hi,

The conversation was about training

 

[Irfan Baloch]

Lol a single squadron of F-35s would destroy the entire PAF.

that is true.
not just Pakistan but any other country in the world both ally or foe.

that single squadron can smash Israeli defences too.
there is just no comparison with American air power.
