The time for this idea has not come. I wonder who gave the final nod, Modi or Parrikar. Absolutely foolish and short sighted. Pilots are not robots but human beings of flesh and blood.
Consider a not so hypothetical scenario.
I am a male pilot, flying a two seater. My co pilot is a woman, who besides being skillful and capable is also attractive and friendly. I spend the better part of the day training with her, flying regular sorties. We are spending hundreds of hours together in the cockpit. Is it very unnatural that we fall in love?
So now we are planning to get married, raise a family etc. War breaks out.
We go into combat, together. Being quite good at what we do, we are part of the squadron which is the front line of assault. Our mission includes infiltrating enemy airspace and taking out anti air units. And, there is a grave risk of getting hit by anti air as well. I could never afford to lose the love of my life. So I begin to play it a bit safe. I try to keep her safety in mind. I do not risk her. I protect her. So what if I could not achieve my mission? Someone else will take care of that. But at least, she lives for another day right?
Now tell me if this is an unrealistic, remote possibility.
