NEW DELHI: The IAF flew as many as 11,000 sorties during the just-concluded massive GaganShakti exercise, which saw the force testing its war-fighting drills on both the western front with Pakistan and northern one with , with even CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear) attack scenarios coming into play.

新德里:在刚刚结束的大规模GaganShakti军演中，印度空军出动了多达11000架次飞机。该军演旨在测验印度军方在与巴基斯坦的西线和的北线的作战演习，甚至还模拟了化学、生物、辐射和核武攻击的战争场景。

“Of the 11,000 sorties during the pan-India exercise from April 8-22, around 9,000 were of fighters like Sukhoi-30MKIs, Mirage-2000s, Jaguars, MiG-29s, MiG-21s, MiG-27s, Tejas and the Hawk advanced jet trainers (in a combat support role),” said an officer on Tuesday.

“Tejas was able to match other fighters with six sorties each day. Overall, we ensured 80% serviceability (operational availability) of different aircraft during the exercise, with 97% for radars and missile systems. During actual war, we would also take calculated risks to generate even more sorties,” said the officer.

“每天光辉战斗机与其他战斗机都能出动6个架次。总体而言，在演习期间，我们确保了不同飞机80%的可飞率，雷达和导弹系统的可用性达到97%。

As earlier reported by TOI, the first phase of the high-voltage exercise saw a staggering 5,000 sorties by fighters during a three-day “surge” in air combat operations on the western front, with the IAF then switching its forces in 48 hours to the northern borders with from Ladakh to Arunachal.

根据《印度时报》早前的报道，第一阶段的高压演习中，印度空军在西线空中作战行动的三天内出动了5000架次战机，然后在48小时内迅速将部队拉至与相邻的拉达克和阿鲁纳恰尔邦北方边境。

The aim of the exercise, which also witnessed activation of civil airfields, was to validate the IAF’s full spectrum capability, with real time coordination, deployment and employment of air power in a short and intense battle scenario.

此次军演也激活了民用机场，目的在于考验印度空军的全局能力，在迅速而紧张的战情中对空军的及时协调、部署和使用能力。

我们应该向我们的邻居们传达一个信息：“想要胡来的话，我们会把你们搞得一团糟。”

Salute to the Indian Air Force and to Air Chief Marshall B. S. Dhanoa. The country needs more funds to update the fleet of aircraft of all kinds. Strategic Airlifters, forward landing grounds, awacs, and defense systems like the s-400.

Tejas poor performence shows how the reservation policy started by the Nehruvian CONsParty has crippled DRDO and overall development of India .

光辉战斗机的表现不如人意，证明了尼赫鲁的国大党实施的预留制政策已经让国防研究与发展组织和印度的整体发展不堪一击。
