    The Wreck of HJT-16 Kiran that crashed at Visakhapatnam in December 1999.Aircraft attrition section has its root in my IAF Attrition section that has been hosted on my tripod site years back. I had over the years collected attrition info related to the Indian Air Force in quite some detail, and have built upon with some information on other air forces as well.

    From the links on the left - you can access the various sections. First and foremost is the Indian Air Force Attrition section post 1947 which has over 900 records.

    The Pakistan Air Force section has a list of around 330 accidents since its inception in 1947.

    The predecessor of both the Airforces, The Royal Indian Air Force losses are also listed in seperate link , these numbers nearly 300.
