J&K’s Mawya Sudan 12th Girl to Enter IAF’s fighter Flow

NEW DELHI: Flying officer Mawya Sudan, that hails from Lamberi village in Rajouri district of Jammu and Kashmir, has come to be the 12th woman to be commissioned to the fighter flow of IAF.
Commissioned in the joint graduation parade in the Air Force Academy at Dundigal close Hyderabad after basic training on Saturday, Sudan will today undergo rigorous fighter coaching for more than a year until she is now’fully operational’ as a fighter pilot and also manage the intricacies of flying flying.
Flight Lieutenants Avani Chaturvedi, Bhawana Kanth and Mohana Singh have been the very first girls to be commissioned as flying officers to the fighter flow following basic instruction in June 2016.
Flying jets such as MiG-21s, they broke the glass ceiling at this longstanding combat-exclusion policy for girls from the armed forces.
IAF now has 11 women fighter pilots, who’ve experienced the tough training to fly jets.
It requires about Rs 15 crore to train one fighter pilot.
