Re: Indian air force in

The details about the Institution/Training Centre – AFA (Air Force Academy) of IAF (Indian Air Force) are as follows:


Air Force Academy


Air Force Academy (AFA), the premier training centre of the Indian Air Force, is the cradle of training for pilots, ground duty and technical officers of IAF. It represents the culmination and fruition of a long felt need to have training for officers of all branches in a single institution.

The idea of this Academy was conceived in 1953 to bring together the training of all fresh entrants into the flying and ground duty branches of the Air Force except for the technical branch. The plan was to develop the institution gradually with the pilots flying school moving in first, then the navigation and signal school and finally the ground duties training school.

The Air Force Academy formally came into being when the then President of India Dr Zakir Hussain, laid the foundation stone of the edifice on 11 October 1967. The Academy was a vision that sought to concentrate most of the ab-initio officer training of the IAF under one roof.

Its construction was delayed for several years due to the difficulty in acquiring a proper site. Finally, about 6700 acres of land located approx 43 Km NW of the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad was acquired from the government of Andhra Pradesh. The location was considered ideal, as satellite bases for advanced training were available at Hakimpet and Bidar and the weather was conducive for flying training for a major portion of the year.

The training is designed to nurture the spirit of amity and promote healthy interaction among officers of every branch. The academy aims to cultivate honour and integrity in every cadet and strives to graduate Air Warriors worthy of the Indian Air Force

The mission of the Academy is to inspire and transform outstanding youngsters into courageous, dynamic, intellectual and cultured young Air Warriors; motivated to lead one of the leading aerospace forces of the world in service to the nation.

The training is designed to inculcate moral values, leadership qualities, sense of honour and duty, mental and physical prowess, a spirit of adventure and the will to win, in the Flight Cadets. It is achieved by training in character building, discipline, military and academic subjects, physical exercise, drill, sports and adventure activities.

The underlying theme of activity at the Academy is companionship and team spirit and a commitment to excellence. Duty, honour, integrity and self-esteem are stressed upon during each stage of training to imbibe by every Flight Cadet.

The curriculum and syllabi keep pace with current doctrines and technological developments, allowing the cadets at the same time to imbibe the basic principles / tenets of the military profession.
