No C-130s, AN-32s, K8s or Kfirs flew this year as they are all unserviceable and is due for overhaul. PT-6 flew initially, but didn't take part in the parade as well (reasons unknown).
@@HaleefI Are you sure because in one of the training days for the parade I saw 2 PT-6s and 2 Jet formations I thought one of the formation was Kfir other one was F-7
@@chathurajananjaya8781 yes. 2 PT-6 flew, but they did not take part in the Independence parade due to unknown reasons. And all three F-7s, (1 BS and 2 GS) flew. No Kfirs flew this time.
For the past 2 independence day celebrations I have been utterly disappointed that I could not witness the flyby from my home in Moratuwa, as usually I get an amazing view(The F-7 joins the formation right over my house) and this year there was a big lack of aircraft, being only 3 Y-12s and MA-60s
@@44Bravo That's because both the an32s and c130s have been sent to get overhauled, also I believe the mi24 are getting overhauled too. www.dailymirror.lk/breaking_news/Several-AF-fighter-jets-combat-helicopters-to-be-overhauled-to-boost-air-power/108-203343 here's an article about the aircraft being overhualed.
Its because the airforce has an aging fleet. Plus the government has no money for new fleet or overhauls. They strip one plane to keep the other in the air. The airforce initially had 2 C130s, but one in grounded for parts. Plus its costly to fly all aircrafts. Very soon you wont see any planes in the air, only at the museum.
Special permission was obtained for this purpose. Lots of restrictions at these points, don't try to do any filming or photography without proper authority. :)
Thank you, and no, in the video you can see 3x F-7s. 2 F-7GS and 1 F-7BS. Apart from them, we also have a trainer, FT-7BS, which of course did not fly in the parade this year.
Srilanka made indian vulnerable by giving port on lease to China,which is unacceptable and now your govt. cancelled east container terminal deal proposed by Japan and India,which would some how worked as equilibrium to Chinese leased port. Surely it is privoking in nature.

Thank you!
Those were f-7s?. Looked like MiG-21s to me.

Thank you Sachindra! Glad you loved it all!
The formation breaks would be perfect to see if there's air to air photography
Definitely!

The training sessions were much better than the actual Independence Day as there were Kfir and PT-6 and I think I saw a C 130 too

Do you still have Kfir in the airforce?
@@magnusemanuelsson4298 we do, and they'll be airworthy again soon.

Very poor fleet this time. SLAF used trainee planes where as they used to fly the best fighter jets in the past coule of years.
Everything missing is currently under overhaul and some are not serviceable. Very soon, they'll be back again flying.
