The Kargil war/conflict was a 84-day-long war with Pakistan, as India attempted to push out its neighbours who had infiltrated and encroached upon its territory. The documentary, `Kargil 1999 - The Untold Story Of The Indian Air Force`, takes the viewers on a never-seen-before journey inside that iconic battle. Twenty-five years after fighting the world’s highest aerial war, and for the first time ever, the men in blue themselves have come back to tell this untold story of the Air Force. Through exclusive access to log books, war diaries, original footage and veteran interviews, the documentary uncovers the untold yet pivotal role of the Indian Air Force in this historic conflict which turned the tables for India. 

It was the third military conflict between India and Pakistan in 52 years, and globally, the first military engagement between two nuclear powers. The Indian Army launched Operation Vijay, but they needed help of the Air Force to dislodge the enemy from the icy heights.
