India proves the continuing utility of the Mig-21, most-produced jet fighter in history (about 10,000) helping complete an objective over enemy territory. Pakistan's US-made f-16, supposedly much more advanced, lost over their own territory. India wins the air war so far.
Varthaman’s aircraft, an upgraded version of the vintage MiG-21 fighter, was shot down during a dogfight over Kashmir earlier this week. He ejected from the damaged plane but landed in the Pakistani-held part of the region.
During the course of this week, a host of Indian politicians, media figures, celebrities and concerned citizens have been praising Varthaman’s conduct and, surprisingly, the way he was treated by Pakistanis. Critics, however, argued that loss of the plane could have been prevented.
