The 4th edition of ‘ACES MEET 2021-1’, a multi-national air exercise organised by the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) is underway with participation from the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF) and the United States Air Force (USAF). The air exercises are taking place at Mushaf airbase.

Air Vice Marshal Waqas Ahmed Sulehri, Deputy Chief of Air Staff (Operations), PAF, commented, "International exercises are new neither for the participants nor for the Airpower Center of Excellence. However, this particular cycle of ACES Meet is unique because participating air forces bring along a vast experience of combat operations, whether in counterterrorism or composite flying domains. Therefore, this platform must be fully utilized to share the invaluable experiences for mutual benefits."

The RSAF has deployed its Panavia Tornado aircraft for the exercise, while the PAF is operating its F-16s, Mirages and indigenously built JF-17 fighters along with AEW&C assets for the two-week long air exercises. The exercises features Special Forces units from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and the USA.
