India DESTROYED 5 Pakistani Jets During OP Sindoor | Air Chief Confirms IAF’s Biggest Kill

In a historic first, Air Chief Marshal Amar Preet Singh confirmed that India shot down five Pakistani jets during Operation Sindoor — the largest surface-to-air Kill in IAF history. Using advanced S-400 air defence systems, the IAF destroyed enemy aircraft, including an AEW&C at 300 km range, crippling Pakistan’s air defence and damaging multiple F-16s at Shahbaz Jacobabad airfield. Command centres, radars, and hangars were also hit as India asserted dominance during the 80–90 hours of intense fighting. This marks a new chapter in modern aerial warfare. #OperationSindoor #IAF #IndianAirForce #S400 #AirDefence #PakistanJets #IAFHistory #IndianMilitary #AirChief #AmarPreetSingh #AEW&C #F16 #ShahbazJacobabad #Airstrike #MilitaryNews #BreakingNews #DefenceUpdate #IndianDefence #SurfaceToAir #MilitaryHistory #CombatReport #IAFVictory #IndianSecurity #DefenceTechnology #AirForce #AerialCombat #IndiaVsPakistan #JetKill #LargestKill #OperationSindoorSuccess Also Read India Shot Down Pakistan's 5 Fighter Jets During Operation Sindoor: IAF Chief AP Singh :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-shot-down-pakistans-5-fighter-jets-during-operation-sindoor-iaf-chief-ap-singh-7824793.html?ref=DMDesc Rajasthan: Indian Air Force To Conduct Major Military Exercise From July 23 to 25 :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/rajasthan-indian-air-force-to-conduct-major-military-exercise-from-july-23-to-25-7807237.html?ref=DMDesc IAF Fighter Jet Crashes in Rajasthan’s Churu, Both Pilots Dead, Probe Ordered :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/iaf-fighter-jet-crashes-in-rajasthan-s-churu-probe-ordered-011-7795751.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~
