This gave birth to an independent Bangladesh. This historic moment was achieved through a coordinated military effort. In this, the Indian Air Force (IAF) played a quick and decisive role in the 13-day conflict. It is also called the Lightning War.
The tweet said that the Air Force had conducted an intense and deadly air campaign. Fighter aircraft flew more than 2400 offensive missions in the western sector and more than 2000 sorties in the eastern sector. These operations controlled the air in both areas, reducing the adversary's ability to retaliate effectively. The 1971 war was a milestone in Indian military history, which demonstrated the precision, power, and capability of the Air Force to win on the battlefield. The role of the Air Force in achieving this unique victory is a testimony to the importance of air superiority in the present times.
