MiG-21 farewell: From 1965 war to Balakot, the iconic jet set to fly into sunset after six decades of service

After serving as India's aerial shield for nearly six decades, the iconic MiG-21 fighter jet is set to bid farewell to the skies on Friday in Chandigarh. The Indian Air Force (IAF) has planned a grand send-off, with full-dress rehearsals already conducted on Wednesday (September 24). During the practice, MiG-21s flew in formation alongside Jaguars and the Surya Kiran Aerobatic Team, while the Akash Ganga skydivers stunned the audience by leaping from a height of nearly 4,000 feet. https://ift.tt/xLjYFts
