Which aircrafts?
Not only that I am a former Pakistan Air Force Pilot but also my father was a PAF officer so this story has special meaning for me and why it resonates with me.
I have flown F-86 and Mirage III's in my time. I was in PAF from 1969 to 1975 timeframe.
Ermegerd. Indian media says you are evil. But you are not.
:/ confused

For some reason, I assumed you to be much younger. So you must have seen action in '71?
I wish professionals like you would contribute more in the Indian section - there is a dearth of expert opinion here, and a low signal to noise ratio when discussing aircrafts and systems of the IAF.
Don't you think a lot of Indians would go into defence mode if he starts posting and just end up being more noise just because he is a PakistaniPakistani
Wow, Would like to know more about your experiences on the sabres....Not only that I am a former Pakistan Air Force Pilot but also my father was a PAF officer so this story has special meaning for me and why it resonates with me.

F-86 was one of those once every 25 to 30 years Classic Marvels that US produces.
In the 50's it was F-86 and late seventies and early eighties it was F-16.
Great aircraft to learn Dogfights on, as it was highly maneuverable at Subsonic speeds.
It was also very forgiving aircrafts to make mistakes on yet survive. Excellent aerodynamics and great on Spin Recoveries.
On the negative side, it was somewhat under-powered in my humble opinion.
Yet all in all, great fighter aircraft for 50's and 60's.
Always wondered if those 6 50 cals on f86 fired at the same time or alternatively also how was the performance of Matra SNEB's?
Not really, expert opinions are always welcome. It's when keyboard warriors go into battle mode that other keyboard warriors respond in kind. Anyway, it's not like there aren't any pakistanis here, is it?
And I am willing to bet that military professionals would not be too interested in internet battles and trolling. So his views are much more likely to be constructive, than the average commentator's.
yeah , the 50 Caliber guns worked in tandem harmonized to point 1000 feet in front of the aircraft.
Great guns but did jam once in a while which could be unnerving in combat.
Matra missile were great AAM.
