The Indian Air Force is set to retire the last two squadrons of the MiG-21 fighter jet in a ceremonial farewell at Chandigarh on September 26. For decades, the aircraft has been a cornerstone of India’s aerial defence, serving since 1971. The retirement marks an emotional moment for the personnel who flew and maintained this iconic aircraft, which is hailed as a "symbol of resilience". According to a tribute by the Indian Air Force, the MiG-21 was "not just a fighter, but a symbol of resilience." The aircraft has been the backbone of the nation’s air defence, standing watch and answering every call. The retiring jets are not destined for the scrapyard. #mig21 #indianairforce #iaf #itwebvideos #mig21retirement #fighterjet #aviation #endofanera #military #chandigarh #defence #airforce #legend #september26 #indiandefence #nationalpride
