Pakistan Air Force Mirage 5EF/F/PA Crash

A Dassault Mirage 5 of the Pakistan Air Force crashed near Ratta Tibba in Vehari District, Punjab. Both pilots ejected safely. Pakistan is the last significant operator of the Mirage III and Mirage 5, sustaining them through the locally run Mirage Rebuild Factory and the acquisition of retired airframes from other air forces. The fleet remains central to Pakistani strike and nuclear delivery roles pending replacement by the JF-17 Block III and J-35.
