No. 15 Squadron is a fighter squadron of the Indian Air Force. It was formed on 20 August 1951, and currently operates the Sukhoi Su-30MKI from Sirsa AFS.
No. 15 Squadron was raised in 1951 at Ambala as part of an emergency wartime expansion. Initially operating with just a handful of Spitfire XVIII taken out from a training role, it was among the four "teen squadrons" set up to bolster the IAF’s strength in anticipation of conflict.
