Exercise ‘Aakraman’ Indian Air Force Drills with Rafales and Su-30s

The Indian Air Force (IAF) conducted Exercise ‘Aakraman’, a major military drill involving Rafale and Su-30MKI fighter jets to simulate attacks on mountainous and ground targets, test electronic warfare, and conduct live fire operations.
With cutting-edge systems like the Meteor and Rampage missiles, and the S-400 air defense system, the exercise aimed to enhance combat readiness amid rising India-Pakistan tensions following the Pahalgam terror attack.
Supervised by elite “Top Gun” pilots, the drill highlights India’s strategic air power and deterrence capabilities in complex warfare scenarios.
