It became known about the fate of the future. aviation returned by Pakistan from the captivity of the Indian pilot Abhinandan Warthaman. Recall that his MiG-21 aircraft at the end of February this year was shot down by an air-to-air missile in a battle near the Indo-Pakistani border. He catapulted and was captured by the Pakistanis. By decision of the Prime Minister of this country, Imran Khan, the Indian pilot was returned to his homeland.
Abhinandan Warthaman, while undergoing rehabilitation in an Indian hospital, filed a report on his return to the country's air force. However, for a long time this report of the commander of the Indian air wing remained unanswered. Numerous discussions were held with representatives of the Indian security services.
