Re: Eygptian and syrian aces

In the six day war, a Pakistani pilot Flt Lt Salif-ul Azam who served in Royal Jordan airforce as a volunteer, flying Hunter F MK6, he claimed 3 IDFAF aircrafts shot down, all could be confimed by Isarel records:
1) Jun 5, he shot down 1 Super Mystere B2 (serial number 94) from No 105 Sq IDFAF over Mafraq AB Jordan, pilot Lt Hananya Boleh was killed
2) Jun 7, he shot down 1 Mirage III from No 117 Sq IDFAF over airfield H-3 Iraq, pilot Capt Gideon Dror bailed out and was tanken prisoner
3) Jun 7, he shot down 1 Vautour IIN (serial number 65) from No 110 Sq IDFAF over airfield H-3 Iraq, both Pilot Capt Shlomo Keren and obsever Capt Alexander Inbar were killed

Previously, in the India-Pakistan war of 1965, on Sep 19, Azam shot down an India Gnat, the pilot Flt Lt Vijay Mayadev bailed out and was taken prisoner, in that case, Salif-ul Azam was flying a American F-86 Sabre
