I think Pakistan air Force is on top 5
Pakistani air force is world’s best… if u want to try …. yes sure but your own risk… we git Israeli pilot and just left 1 for india called abhi nandan….
Yes you are right. Pakistani Air force is the best air force in the world. They have JF17 blunder which is very very powerful and it can even shoot down the space craft .
They also other very advanced planes that can destroy any Indian city without even taking off from ground.
Very Very powerful
I see someone is feeling jealous, wasn’t the tea fantastic? or was the beating your pilot took better? why don’t you try this time with Rafaels? or are you satisfied with making bollywood movies of attacks and cross border strategic strikes and commando raids? look inward you are not that good, Pakistan is not that good either just good enough to counter you.
Wo ist die Deutsche Luftwaffe?
False information
Pakistan, i hope thats a joke.
Of course, this is not a joke. In 1965, a Pakistani pilot shot down three fighter planes within 30 seconds, a world record. You may check this if you so choose.
Soo 55 years ago they shot someone down ooooh please don’t hurt us lol Moron
You should know that Pakistan shot down two indian jet (su30M and Mig -21 ) both of which are the updated variants of the aircrafts ,on the other hand indian air force bigger in size than pakistan air force was not able to shot down a single pakistani jet .It is because pakistan has more advance fighter jet than india . Pakistani air force has played a major roll in international affairs and some wars also this is all because of the fact that Pakistan has more efficient pilots and are better trained . Brother you should check the facts propertly . Because nowerdays quantity does not matter but quality matters and Pakistan aircrafts are of better quality .
What about my country nigeria
Nigeria cant be on this list my friend, it is no where in this list because it operates mostly outdated F-6 Aircraft, it recently purchased three JF-17 Light multirole fighters from Pakistan but the JF-17 is a 3.5-4 Gen aircraft at best of which pakistan alone operates close to 90, but the Pakistani version carrys lethal ammo, like cruises and BVM which Nigeria does not have. In addition network centric skills are missing in Nigeria again the Pakistani airforce has very strong network centric skills with the JF 17 which integrates with smart bombs and missles and squadron level integration with F-16 Aircraft form the US. Nigeria would have to go a long way before showing up on this list.
Dont think the Indians out rank Turkey? not possible, Turkey has over 280 top notch attack aircraft….mostly latest F-16 Block F fighters……they are on drugs and dont think Turkey is one spot ahead of Pakistan at all, the difference should be more, I think India and Turkey can switch places. Pakistan should be at Number 8-10 at most after Turkey as the German air force is equipped with mostly system based strengths as part of NATO on a stand alone basis dont think Germany is better than Turkey at all. India is a great air force no doubt, but at the moment the systems are some of the weakest in terms if network integration and platforms, dont think they should be #7 at all.
