Drawing arrow between plots (table datas)

I use pfgplots to draw two sets of data, stored in .dat. Now I would like to automatically draw an arrow from one curve to the other, and only at the curves points. I tried to name the paths, but to no avail... Here is my minimum working example:
documentclass[11pt]standalone
usepackagetikz,pgfplots,filecontents
pgfplotssetcompat=newest
usepgfplotslibraryfillbetween
beginfilecontents*data1.dat
a b
1 1
2 1.2
3 1.5
endfilecontents*
beginfilecontents*data2.dat
a b
1 1.5
2 1.75
3 1.6
endfilecontents*
begindocument
begintikzpicture
%graphique
beginaxis
addplot[name path=c1,blue,thick,mark=*] plot table[x=a,y=b]data1.dat;
addplot[name path=c2,black,thick,mark=*] plot table[x=a,y=b]data2.dat;
%draw[red,->] (c1) -- (c2);
endaxis
endtikzpicture
enddocument
Which gives:
I would like to get (automatically from data points):
To generate this last picture I defined each arrow separately, for example for the last arrow: draw[red,-latex,thick,shorten >=0.1em] (3,1.5) -- (3,1.6);
I tryed to use the fillbetween package to name the paths, but I have not been able to use it so far. Could I get something like : draw[red,->] (c1) -- (c2); ?
Thanks a lot for your help!

Here is an alternative based on this nice answer. Its advantage is that it does not rely on the plot points having always the same distance. In fact, in your data set they don't, and that's the reason why in your answer the middle arrow is not vertical.

If you want the arrows to "touch" the plot marks, usenodes near coords style=anchor=center,inner sep=2ptinstead ofnodes near coords style=anchor=center.

However you'll notice a slight shift of my middle arrow. I think this comes from my data not being evenly distributed... Would you have any insight on this ?
