Indian Air Force MiG-21 Receives Water Cannon Salute on Farewell at Chandigarh Air Force Station

The Indian Air Force's MiG-21 will roar in the skies for the last time today, September 26, leaving a 62-year legacy behind. It is India's first supersonic fighter and interceptor aircraft, which was forced into the jet age. Inducted in the early 60s, the MiG-21 will receive a water salute at the decommissioning ceremony in Chandigarh, the base from where it started its journey. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh serves as the chief guest at the ceremony. It will also be attended by Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan, Army Chief Gen Upendra Dwivedi, Air Chief Marshal A P Singh and Navy Chief Admiral Dinesh K Tripathi.

MiG-21's supersonic speed, agility and versatility made it a formidable asset despite being one of the simplest and most cost-effective aircraft in the IAF inventory. Inducted in 1963, the MiG-21 trained generations of pilots and proved its mettle in multiple conflicts, including the 1965 and 1971 wars, and the 1999 Kargil War, becoming more than just a fighter jet, a representation of IAF's power and capability. Apart from combat, the MiG-21 was crucial for reconnaissance missions, air defence patrols and tactical exercises, giving India a credible deterrence capability.
