First Female F-16 Pilot of Pakistan Air Force

[Raider 21]

Imagine if they start bitching about their in-laws during a live firing drill?? We might get a new Sherni Afgan...!!

Are you not doing that right now ??

 

[Zibago]

Are you not doing that right now ??

If other countries can do it I dont know why its so controversial in Pakistan

This is a non issue really

How can a Pak not trust this lady can do a FOX-1/2/3 etc. on all the Abhinandans Indians can throw toward Pak???? She looks and sounds like dead-set on her job....

used Block-32s.

What's the deal with Iraqi F-16? heard a lot about swap with JF-17 but there is silence now

She might even be a pilot of J-10 in future unlike her critics will only fly paper planes in their lives

However, pit a woman against a man behind a computer etc. and you will find both of them quite equal to the task. The face of air combat is changing and it is much more about how people process the information than sustaining G's (that is needed too and women, in good shape, have been found to handle G's just as well as men). Keep in mind the automation within the cockpit and the commentary that AC Kaiser Tufail provided about how the face of air warfare has changed now.

Sending women into combat operations in an offensive capacity may not be a good choice, but in air defense roles over own air space, it may be worth considering.


Anecdotally, my understanding is that many pilots are going to the F-16 stream directly on account of more F-16s available in the inventory and also because the hop from a trainer to a Chinese or a French platform and then finally to the F-16 has run its course in terms of benefit and there is a realization that if started early, the younger pilots do better focusing on flying the F-16 and employing it instead of unlearning habits from other aircraft.

Others may know differently.

I think you have hit the nail on its head

I feel so bad rn, I was mixing up Fighter pilot from the OP with BBC one
Thought they were the same person omg

I don't know why or how I was mixing them up, probably with hijab they looked kinda similar I guess

Instigator & the one who responds in anger, will be treated equally. Don't push for it. Such a disgusting & filthy language on this Forum wouldn't be tolerated. It should be the last leave on such subject. Don't involve others family. Don't get personal. Don't use abusive language. Don't provoke others with personal attacks.

Women in service do know what they are up for and no force risk such an outcome. It is just so much of insecurities of you guys kicking in way above the facts & reality.

Behave next time.

You banned for me for no reason even when it was me whose family was attacked and it was me who was abused

Nice work

Women can sustain G's longer than men and are superior at multi-tasking a critical skill for combat aviators.

Why do women wear a scarf under their helmet? isn't it dangerous (fire), uncomfortable in the heat and humidity of Pakistan?

If only as a Flying Officer, she made it onto the Viper Squadron, it surely proves her credentials.

Its more of an 'optics' thing in her case. There are some inherent problems with females once it comes for combat / support units deployment, same in the army as well. In this case as well.

 

[PanzerKiel]

Such as talking about crap for hours on end and bitching about other women?

Cmon dear. Not these of course. Men are no less once it comes to these things.

It was a joke
