would anyone happen to know why the air force didn't carry over the heritage from Indian squadrons, similar to what the army had done? Since we had inherited 3 squadrons, with one of them being the oldest squadron of the Indian air force.

I am bound by my religion and common sense to know that isn't the case, anyways, we're both to entitled to having our own opinions so.

So when finally the US and the Arabs stop giving you money, they're the enemy now? If only we were diplomatically and economically strong enough for Israel to even consider us a threat. Sorry to burst your bubble but the only thing having nukes confirm is that you'll be equally dead as the ones...

they're serving their own interests, just because we fall in the way of that doesn't mean they're doing it "for Pakistan"

Pakistan itself is struggling financially, where do you suggest we bring in the necessary amount of capital from?

PN doesn't operate Mirages, that's a wikipedia propagated myth.

Fake. The Mirages in the movie were CGI.

1967 for the IIIEP and first batches of IIIDP and IIIRP. 5PA and second batch of IIIDP in 1970. Second batch of IIIRP in 1975. 5PA2, 5PA3 and 5DPA2 in 1979.

why? we aren't short of fighters capable of doing that.

Phenom 100, Cessna Citation Excel, Gulfstream IV SP. Saab 2000 and Y-12 to a lesser extent.

At least one Mirage had (pre delivery?) the classic steel grey/red scheme with PAF markings, can't seem to find the picture right now. Mirage IIIEP, IIIDP, IIIEP and later Mirage 5s were delivered in this standard two-tone green/grey above and sky blue below. Later Mirage 5 ROSE 2, ROSE 3...

Being dependent on one source doesn't really leave much room for having a strong lobby elsewhere, if it did we'd have the AH-1Zs etc. by now.

I think you didn't quite understand what I meant. Pakistan DID adopt the 7,62NATO caliber even tho it wasn't specifically made for this environment. That means other calibers can too, potentially. So why go thru the whole process of developing a new caliber if there can be something in the...

yes they are, they have been since the beginning what's changed now?

if your goal was triggering people's sentiments by stating facts you got it pretty well and since you haven't studied languages why does your opinion matter in the slightest?

what's the logic behind developing a new caliber when's there are multiple out in the market that can do the job?

Airbus stopped converting A310's in favour of A330's. In what sense of the world is the A330 an "older plane"?

is that what they tell you on the state controlled "news" over there?

Who came to the conclusion it's from the 14 squadron, last I checked the 16 squadron was also colocated at Kamra. What SAR squadron operates in the region tho? Because if it's using the AW139, it means another squadron has also transitioned on to it.

No. The back of the vertical stabilizer is completely vertical in a JF-17, and seems to be the same in the picture of the crash. Number could be missing as it might not have been assigned to a squadron yet or simply not painted on yet.
