Indian Air Force flying instructors will begin working as trainers for the Royal Air Force, it was announced on October 9th, 2025. This collaboration aims to enhance training capabilities for both air forces. The announcement, made via a social media post from the account @Platypuss_10, highlights a deepening defense partnership between India and the United Kingdom. Specific details regarding the deployment timeline or the number of instructors involved were not immediately available. This initiative follows recent Air Force Day celebrations in India on October 8th, 2025. While those celebrations in Hindon, Ghaziabad, reportedly featured a notable food menu, this new development signifies a practical engagement between the two air forces. The Royal Air Force is the United Kingdom's aerial warfare branch, while the Indian Air Force is one of the largest air forces in the world. This exchange program is expected to foster shared expertise and operational understanding.
