It became known about the future fate in aviation of the Indian Air Force pilot Abhinandan Warthaman




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.

Now the Indian press reports that the 36-year-old Abhinandan Warthaman has returned to aviation and has already started flying on the MiG-21.
A quote from a senior representative of the Ministry of Defense of India is given:

Yes, he began to fly. The Institute of Aerospace Medicine in Bangalore has issued permission for its flights.

After returning from captivity, Warthaman was awarded the third most significant medal in the Indian Armed Forces - “Vir Chakra” with the wording “For the defense of India’s air borders and downed enemy aircraft.” In New Delhi, they claim that Abhinandan Warthaman shot down the Pakistan Air Force F-16.

It should be recalled that a few days ago information came from India about the readiness of the Indian Air Force to abandon the further operation of MiG-21 aircraft.

        Would have to. Mask use interfere. They knocked down tea because of this: I couldn’t really put on the mask, I lost my breath on the bend, so I didn’t twist it from the rocket ....

      Well, right. A man flies to retirement. You can’t punish a pilot who was shot down while performing a b / d for being captured.

        You can’t punish a pilot who was shot down while performing a b / d for being captured.

        It is possible, and sometimes necessary. And suspension is not necessarily a punishment. Firstly, there may be indications of a medical board on the physical condition after bailout and mental after captivity. Secondly, special officers can limit the admission, because the prisoner could be forced to cooperate.

        The point is probably different. As far as I remember, being in captivity, he made a number of statements defaming the leadership of his state. Perhaps, being in a fever, he behaved "too emotionally", but these statements do not correspond to the ethics of the officer's behavior in captivity and the image of the morality of the Indian serviceman. Well, that's up to them.

      India does not have many pilots who are ready to fly on the MiG-21, so it’s normal that they were allowed to fly.
      The main thing is that the whiskers would not be forced to shave ...

      Well, everything is logical. The best fighter-crusher was returned to service, and the plane that he owns is sent to the scrap for some reason ... Maybe, after all, not everything is the same as in propaganda? And is the 21st out of date? Although remarkable at the time was a plane ...

      Vir Chakra medal? How many chakras should a person have? Is there any other area for Indian pilots to strive for?

        There are 7 people in total chakras. So he has a chance to collect chakra medals without dropping the honor of his dad, who is air marshal of India.

          Like 9? Although I'm not an Indian laughing Although you correctly said - "a person" laughing And as long as the big white sahib didn’t allow these pilots to speak, exhausted from the burden of the white man

      "However, for a long time this report of the commander of the Indian air wing remained unanswered. Numerous conversations were held with representatives of the Indian security services" - apparently there were questions to the pilot from the Indian counterintelligence services for his behavior in captivity, he probably passed a polygraph test after revealing signs of cooperation with the Pakistanis

      He was not tortured by special services there during rehabilitation? Some suspicious bruises under the eyes .....

        It was most likely bruises during the captivity ... and when he was released, there were no bruises ... the bruises do not pass so quickly, most likely they have a make-up on his face so that ordinary people do not see how they gave him a light there ...

        There is one bruise! ... Exactly. But how, to be held captive and not get a bruise from the packs? ... Well, at least there will be something to tell grandchildren in retirement!

      The mustache is certainly gorgeous, you can’t argue! Interestingly, on a newer plane, he basically refuses to fly or he will not be given?
