Captain Zabihullah Dorandish dreamt of becoming a Black Hawk pilot since he was a teenager. His dream came true this week, as he was one of six Afghan Air Force pilots to graduate from the first UH-60 Black Hawk Training Program at Kandahar Air Field.
The introduction of the Black Hawk - with nearly 160 due to arrive in the next few years - is part of a massive modernization of the Afghan Air Force. This year alone, the AAF performed more than 15,000 sorties in their several types of aircraft in support of army and commando operations across Afghanistan.
