UAE's F16s to take to the big screen

More than 700 Air Force guests attended the screening at Emirates Palace.

Abu Dhabi: The UAE Air Force and Air Defence yesterday hosted a red-carpet VIP screening of Desert Falcons, a documentary featuring the nation's role in Red Flag — the world's most challenging aerial combat training exercise.

More than 700 Air Force guests attended the screening at Emirates Palace.

Now UAE residents will be the first public audience in the world to see Desert Falcons, with its global broadcast premiere tonight at 10pm on Abu Dhabi's Al Emarat channel.

The English version will be broadcast on Abu Dhabi Sports at 10.30pm. The documentary will be shown again on June 26 during the weekly programme Al Madar on Abu Dhabi Sports.

Hosted by the US Air Force and held at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, USA, participation in Red Flag is by invitation only.

Since its first exercise in 1975, fewer than 30 countries have taken part.

From August 22 to September 5, 2009, more than 140 of the UAE Air Force's most talented fighter pilots and maintenance officers spent two weeks training in realistic aerial combat exercises conducted over the 15,000 square mile Nevada Test and Training Range north of Las Vegas. The documentary features the UAE's fighter aircraft the F16 Block 60, better known as the Desert Falcon.

Developed and built by Lockheed Martin, the Desert Falcons are the most technologically advanced F16s, and they are owned exclusively by the UAE Air Force.

Pakistans participation in red flag will indeed give their airforce an exposure to real time air superiority tatics .Further the use of f16s is good as PAF wont face the issues IAF faced during red flag.IAF sukhois could not integrate and connect with data link of the US awacs which greatly reduced their ability but PAF f16s wont have that problem as they are US made .Best of luck!!!!!

What the heck are u talking about?
PAF has its own tactics and does not relies on any one for developing tactics.. plus paf has counducted a lot of exercise to give them experience they already have.
