This is Part 2 of our video about Pakistani F104 Starfighter in the 1965 IndoPakistani War. Our story continues on 07 September when Indian Air Force launched counterattacks against Pakistani airbases. Squadron Leader Ajjamada Devayya took off as a spare in his Mystere IVA. As he and other Mysteres were retreating after the attack, Devayya was intercepted by an F104 flown by Flight Lieutenant Amjad Hussain. A controversial dogfight came of of this encounter where as you can expect, each side has its own version.
Starfighters were also able to perform a couple of night interceptions against Indian Canberra bombers. There's no shortage of controversy there either.
