In an attempt to encourage the youth of the country, the Indian Air Force has released a new flight simulation mobile game in India. Titled Indian Air Force: A Cut Above offers players to experience the role of an IAF Commander and also has links to the career page of the Indian Air Force website.

Air Chief Marshal BS Dhanoa launched the game at an event in New Delhi, earlier this week. IAF: A Cut Above has been developed by Threye Interactive for the Indian Air Force and features a training and single-player mode. The developers have promised a multiplayer mode that will be announced during the Air Force Day.

The single-player campaign has 10 missions which revolve around airstrikes, air-refueling, aid and disaster relief. Interestingly, the player's default avatar resembles very closely to IAF Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman who was the hero of Balakot surgical air strike India conducted earlier this year.
