Pakistan
The most significant combat seen by the MiG-19 was during the Indo-Pakistani War in December 1971.
The Pakistanis claimed that their F-6s shot down about 10 Indian aircraft, with a loss of four F-6s.
The Indians maintain that the Pakistani claims for kills are inflated and the number of losses were negligible.

In any case, the Pakistanis felt the F-6 had acquitted itself well and expanded their fleet.
During the Afghan War, Pakistani F-6s would scramble to deal with incursions of Soviet and Afghan aircraft into Pakistani airspace.
The intruders were often in "hot pursuit" of [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] guerrillas who were trying to escape back to their sanctuaries in
Pakistan, and since it was an open secret that the Pakistanis were supporting the Mujahedin, sometimes the intruders didn't feel like leaving when they were challenged and there are tales of wild air battles.
Pakistan did not retire the F-6 until 2002.

Africa
Tanzania flew MiG-19S fighters against Uganda during the war between the two states in 1978 and 1979, while the Sudan used its MiG-19S fighters against separatists in southern Sudan, with at least one shot down.
The Somalis flew the F-6 against rebels and the Ethiopians in the 1980s, though with the breakdown in civil order in Somalia all their aircraft ended up derelict by the early 1990s.
