GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. In this section, standardized guidelines for the physical assessment of candidates for
commissioning through NDA into flying and ground duty branches in the IAF are elaborated.
The purpose of these guidelines is to lay down uniform physical standards and to ensure that
the candidates are free of health conditions that may hamper or limit their performance in the
respective branch. The guidelines enumerated in this section are meant to be applied in
conjunction with the standard methods of clinical examination.
2. All candidates during their induction should meet the basic physical fitness standards
which will enable them to proficiently undergo the training and the subsequent service in
varied climatic and work environments. A candidate will not be assessed physically fit unless the complete examination shows that he/ she is physically and mentally capable of
withstanding the severe physical and mental strain for prolonged periods. The requirements
of medical fitness are essentially the same for all branches, except for aircrew in whom the
parameters for visual acuity, anthropometry and certain other physical standards are more
stringent.
3. The medical standards spelt out pertain to initial entry medical standards.
Continuation of medical fitness during training will be assessed during the period medical
examinations held at NDA/AFA prior to commissioning. They are not exhaustive, in view of
the vast spectrum of diseases. These standards are subject to change with the advancement in
the scientific knowledge and change in working conditions of Armed Forces.
4. Laboratory and Radiological Investigations for Special Medical Board
(a) Hematology: Complete Haemogram (Haumoglobin estimation, Total
Leucocyte Count with Differential Leucocyte Count, Platelet Count).
(b) Hb Electrophoresis will be carried out in candidates for commissioning to
exclude Haemoglobinopathies.
(c) Biochemistry: Liver function test (LFT), Renal Function Test (RFT), Blood
glucose estimation (Fasting and tow hours after 75g anhydrous glucose/82.5g glucose
monohydrate loading), Lipid profile.
(d) Urine Routine Examination (RE) and Microscopic Examination (ME).
(e) ECG
(f) Radiology:-
(i) Radiograph Chest PA view in all candidates.
(ii) Radiograph Limbosacral Spine: AP and Lateral views in all candidates.
(iii) In addition to the above radiographs, Cervical Spine – AP and Lateral
views, Dorsal Spine – AP and Lateral views will be carried out in all
candidates being assessed for flying duties.
(iv) USG Abdomen and Pelvis.
(v) Any other additional investigation deemed necessary will be conducted
during the Appeal stage General Physical Assessment
5 Every candidate, to be fit for the Air Force, must conform to the minimum standards
laid down in the succeeding paragraphs. The physical parameters should fall within the
acceptable ranges and should be proportionate.
6. The residual effects of old fractures/ injuries are to be assessed for any functional
limitation. If there is no effect on function, the candidate can be assessed fit. Following
categories should be meticulously assessed:
(a) Spine injuries. Cases of old fractures of spine are unfit. Any residual
deformity of spine or compression of a vertebra will be cause for rejection.

(b) Nerve injuries. Injuries involving the trunks of the larger nerves, resulting in
loss of function, or neuroma formation, which causes pain significant tingling,
indicate unsuitability for employment in flying duties.
(c) Keloids. The presence of large or multiple keloids will be a cause for
rejection.
(d) Surgical Scars. Minor well-healed scars for e.g. as resulting from any
superficial surgery do not, per se, indicate unsuitability for employment. Extensive
scarring of a limb or torso that may cause functional limitation or unsightly
appearance should be considered unfit.
(e) Birth Marks. Abnormal pigmentation in the form of hypo or hyperpigmentation is not acceptable. Localized, congenital mole/ naevus, however, is
acceptable provided its size is <10 cm. Congenital multiple naevi or vascular tumours
that interfere with function or are exposed to constant irritation are not acceptable.
(f) Subcutaneous Swellings. Lipoma will be considered fit unless the lipoma is
causing significant disfigurement/ functional impairment due to the size/ location.
Neurofibroma, if single will be considered fit. Multiple neurofibromas associated with
significant Café-au-lait spots (more than 1.5 cm size or more than one in number) will
be considered unfit.
(g) Cervical Rib. Cervical rib without any neuro-vascular compromise will be
accepted. Meticulous clinical examination to rule out neuro-vascular compromise
should be performed in such cases. This should be documented in the Medical Board
proceedings.
(h) Cranio-facial Deformities. Asymmetry of the face and head or uncorrected
deformities of skull, face or mandible which will interfere with proper fitting of
oxygen mask, helmet or military headgear will be considered unfit. Major deformities
even after corrective surgery will be considered unfit.
(j) History relating to Operations. A candidate who has undergone an
abdominal operation involving extensive surgical intervention or partial/ total excision
of any organ is, as a rule, unfit for service. Operation involving the cranial vault with
any residual bony defect will be unfit. Major thoracic operations will make the
candidate unfit.
Measurements and Physique
7. Chest Shape and Circumference. The shape of the chest is as important as its actual
measurement. The chest should be well proportioned and well developed. Any chest
deformity likely to interfere with physical exertion during training and performance of
military duties or adversely impact military bearing or are associated with any cardiopulmonary or musculoskeletal anomaly are to be considered unfit. Minimum recommended
chest circumference for Candidates is 77 cm. The chest expansion should be at least 05 cm
for all candidates. For the purpose of documentation, any decimal fraction lower than 0.5 cm
will be ignored, 0.5 cm will be recorded as such and 0.6 cm and above will be recorded as 1
cm.

 

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
17. Pulmonary Tuberculosis. Any residual scarring in pulmonary parenchyma or pleura,
as evidenced by a demonstrable opacity on chest radiogram will be a ground for rejection.
Old treated cases with no significant residual abnormality can be accepted if the diagnosis
and treatment was completed more than two years earlier.

18. Pleurisy with Effusion. Any evidence of pleural thickening will be a cause for
rejection. At the time of appeal, these cases will be subjected to detailed evaluation with
appropriate investigations by Pulmonologist/Medical Specialist.
19. Bronchitis. History of repeated attacks of cough/wheezing/bronchitis may be
manifestations of chronic bronchitis or other chronic pathology of the respiratory tract. Such
cases will be assessed unfit and will be subjected to detailed evaluation with appropriate
investigations at the time of appeal by Pulmonologist/Medical Specialist.
20. Bronchial Asthma. History of repeated attacks of bronchial asthma/wheezing/
allergic rhinitis will be a cause for rejection.
21. Radiographs of the Chest. Definite radiological evidence of disease of the lungs,
mediastinum and pleurae are criteria for declaring the candidate unfit.
22. Thoracic Surgery. Candidate with history of any major surgery of the thorax will be
considered unfit.
