A few days after the ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan on May 10, Air Marshal A.K. Bharti said that India shot down several high-tech Pakistani fighter planes, although he did not mention the number. At the same time, Pakistan underestimated India's claim and said that only one aircraft of the Pakistani Air Force (PAF) suffered minor damage. Pakistan has claimed to have shot down six Indian planes, including Rafale.
