Gofrixt [19 July 2025] – Pakistan Air Force (PAF) left an indelible mark on the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) 2025 in the United Kingdom when its JF-17 Thunder wooed….. the audience and secured the coveted “Spirit of the Meet” Trophy. PAF’s C-130H Hercules aircraft also won the “Concours d’Elegance” Trophy at the show which is yet another feather in Pakistan’s success streak at international air shows.
The RIAT is among the world’s largest and most popular airshows, with military and civilian aircraft flying in from around the world. It allows us to showcase all the best in aviation showmanship, precision and presentation. Not only did PAF excel the judges but it also bedazzled the onlookers with its finesse and presentation levels.
Pakistan JF-17 Thunder, developed jointly with China, is gaining respect globally for its features and performance. The plane has already appeared in numerous airshows and exercises around the world. Earning the “Spirit of the Meet” Trophy demonstrates not only the technical ability of the aircraft, but also the commitment and passion of the crew and support staff.
