A Pakistan Air Force (PAF) Mirage V ROSE fighter jet crashed in Ratta Tibba, Vehari, during a routine operation from PAF Base Rafiqui.

Both pilots successfully ejected before the crash and were rescued in good health. This incident has highlighted the role of the Mirage V ROSE in Pakistan’s air defence and the effectiveness of its safety systems.

The Mirage V ROSE is an upgraded version of the French Mirage 5, a combat aircraft in service with the Pakistan Air Force since the 1970s. The Retrofit of Strike Element (ROSE) program enhanced its avionics and radar, improving its precision and combat capabilities. It remains a key part of the PAF’s fleet despite its age.

Located in Shorkot, Punjab, PAF Base Rafiqui is a major airbase named after Wing Commander Cecil Chaudhry, a celebrated Pakistani pilot. The base supports fighter squadrons and training missions, making it a critical hub for regional PAF operations.

What Happened During the Crash?

The jet went down to Ratta Tibba, a rural area in the Vehari district. PAF officials confirmed that the pilots ejected using the aircraft’s emergency systems, avoiding injury. An investigation is underway to determine the cause, with early reports suggesting a possible technical failure.

The PAF has been modernizing its fleet, and the Mirage V ROSE plays a vital role in its operations. This crash may lead to a review of maintenance procedures. However, the pilots’ safe ejection demonstrates the reliability of the jet’s safety features and the skill of PAF personnel.
