I have already informed on this news to you guys.

Has Saab signed off on the quality of the repair to declare the airframe airworthy?

They don't need to. These are military register. PAC can, as they do for all other aircraft.

So what has been done for durability testing of the repair given that it is a pressurized aircraft? Nobody would want a pressure bulkhead to give way.

Mr. Haider, all technicalities are considered, and satisfied.

The boys in PAC are very good, and they took this challenged and completed it, shocking even the SAAB experts.

If you say so, Sir. Certifying the long term durability of such a repair over thousands of pressurization cycles is no mean feat, if achieved. Kudos in that case!

Your are way off the mark. 3 operational and one written off.

This is very nice.

Are we still storing them under the sky ? or do we intend to construct proper hangers for them this time around ?

Taliban can't distinguish between military air craft and passenger jet it was India who sponsored the attacks with the help ignorant salafi insider informers.

Contrary to bold part Taliban are quite intelligent and creative in their methods and techniques. No rocket science is required to distinguish between military and passenger jets.

You people said that these Erieye's are upgraded so I want to know the difference in the capabilities between these upgraded Erieyes and Globaleye.

I disagree. They are illiterate people who cannot read and write. They don't know real names of equipment and they can't even differentiate APC from Tank. Taliban used to call every helicopter as "Parinda" and every Air craft as "Jahaz"
Those who conducted the attack on Saab2K exactly knew what they were doing and what was their target.
They were guided and was given support in the form of intelligence, planning, weaponry and targets.

Sir, let's talk about a certain "incident" of bird hit ......
How much damage air craft suffered in that incident?

The upgrade or "bulge" people refer to is an known upgrade of LOS datalink. All these systems come with long term support agreements, and keep going through component and processing upgrades through their lives.

why we are showing that we did an impossible job.
sorry to say still 1 aircraft is out of service which is completely serviceable (probably destroy complete)
still don't know who is responsible for all these (mehran & kamra) attacks (security laps)

That means that eventually our Erieyes will be somewhat on par with Globaleye, am I correct?

Everyone knows who is responsible for these.

It is worth showing that impossible was made possible by the hard work of PAF. Those responsible for the security lapse were also punished. The aircraft not repaired was completely written off, nothing to salvage or harvest. In Mehran, couple of P3Cs were in similar status, as shown in public pictures.
