Pakistan’s military aviation capabilities were recognised on the global stage as two aircraft from the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) secured top honours at the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) 2025, held in the United Kingdom.
In a statement on Saturday, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said the PAF’s JF-17 Thunder Block-III won the prestigious "Spirit of the Meet" trophy, marking its maiden appearance at the event. The award was described as a recognition of the aircraft’s “technological brilliance and operational capability,” and an endorsement of Pakistan’s advancing aerospace industry.
The JF-17 Thunder Block-III is Pakistan’s most advanced multirole combat aircraft, co-developed with China and upgraded with cutting-edge avionics and weapons systems.
Meanwhile, the PAF’s C-130H Hercules transport aircraft was awarded the "Concours d'Elegance" trophy, given to the best-maintained and most aesthetically presented aircraft at the show.
According to the ISPR, the accolades reflect the PAF’s professionalism and engineering standards, enhancing its status among the world’s leading air forces.
