IAF flying 44-year-old MiG-21, criticizes Indian Air Chief Dhanoa

The warmongering can not get more evident from New Dehli in the wake of recent Kashmir crisis, whereas Indian Air Force chief BS Dhanoa is questioning his country that why India is still flying four-decades-old aircraft when no one drives even cars of that vintage.

“We are still flying MiG-21 which is 44 years old but nobody driving cars of that vintage,” Air Chief Dhanoa said at a seminar in New Delhi.

He pointed out that, “The fifth-generation fighters are a reality and the next generation fighters are already on the drawing board. Can we afford a victory with such losses? If there is no war, we cannot wait for indigenous technology to replace obsolete warfighting equipment.”
