Pictures of No.11 Sqn Super Marine Attackers operated during 1950-1956. Attacker was the first Jet engine fighter aircraft

 inducted  in PAF inventory, it remained in service till large scale induction of F-86 Sabres in mid-50s.

In March 1961, PAF touched new horizons with the arrival of supersonic fighter F-104 Starfighter in PAF. No.9 Sqn became

the only recipient of the state-of-the-art aircraft. Seen here two examples during a training mission.

F-86 Sabre flying over Arabian Sea. Large number of F-86E/F have served PAF from 1956-1980. Apart from other air to air

victories achieved in F-86E/F Sabre the most famous witnessed on 7th Sep, 1965 involving  Sqn Ldr MM Alam shooting down

5 enemy aircraft in a single mission with two more later on, making him the only Ace of the Sub Continent.

 ie Fury and Attacker were moved out of service .By the end of 1957 100 Sabres were flying in PAF, mostly in newly formed

squadrons ie No.15 (1957), No.16(1957), No.17(1957),No.18(1957), No.19(1958) and No.11(1956), No.14 (1957).
