Between 7 May and 10 May, India and Pakistan fought their most intense air battles since the 1971 war. This is the definitive inside account of Operation Sindoor – told by the men who flew the missions, planned the strikes and held the line. A Sukhoi pilot manoeuvring towards hostile airspace as enemy radar attempts to lock up his aircraft. A senior officer commanding a cutting-edge war room. IAF leadership orchestrating strategy under impossible pressure. A missile unit commander on the LoC facing wave after wave of Pakistani drones. These voices reveal what it truly means to go to war – the split second choices, the weight of command, the machinery of modern aerial combat and the unbreakable courage of those who fly into harm’s way. Deeply researched and intensely gripping, The Sky Warriors combines operational intelligence, forensic detail and edge-of-your-seat storytelling.
