📌 PAF Height and Weight Requirements 2025
Are you planning to join the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) in 2025? Whether you aim to become an Airman, Airwoman, Officer, or join through Short Service Commission (SSC), one of the most important criteria is meeting the official height and weight requirements based on your BMI (Body Mass Index).
The PAF BMI chart helps candidates understand if their current weight is suitable for their height. The Pakistan Air Force uses BMI as a screening tool during physical and medical tests.
📉 What is BMI in PAF? Understanding Body Mass Index
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a universal formula used to estimate if your weight is appropriate for your height. In the Pakistan Air Force, BMI is used in medical evaluation during recruitment, training, and even during service.
🧮 BMI Formula
BMI = Weight (kg) ÷ Height² (m²)
However, we’ve provided easy-to-read BMI charts so you don’t need to calculate manually.
