    Apply for NDA exam which is conducted twice a year. Get through exam, SSB interview, PABT, Medical, and merit then you get call letter for NDA. Spend three years there as air Force cadet and then spend another 1and half year at AFA, you are ready to go now. You can also apply for graduate entries such as AFCAT CDSE, NCC
    Always remember fighter branch is given to you only when you clear all the test standards of it.
