All PAF F-16s at Same Airbase!

[I S I]

So jaar yaar fikar hum pe chor de.

 

[Basel]

Pakistan has no defense system that is capable of intercepting, any, let alone low flying cruise missiles, and probably doesn't have the radar to detect them

SPADA 2000, LY-80E, FM-90 and radar guided Orlikon G5 AAA with AHEAD rounds can take out low level cruise missiles.

 

[I S I]

Fancy having all your F16 in one base.

VERY TEMPTING TO launch one massive strike with Brahmos cruise missles to take out entire fleet

PAF would never recover

THESE 58 F16 are suppose to take 250 OF THESE BELOW

BC pehle available to rakho in teen ke tappar ko.

 

[Saleem]

PAF is professional Air Force and they knew very well how to place their core assets.
so nothing to worry .

thats why they lost all their AWACs!

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

We can park the F16 where ever we want

 

[Hamza913]

but hitting 58 F 16s is gotta be tempting,no?

Not if it's in a nuclear state and the place is well guarded.

 

[Viper0011.]

Why Pakistan has parked all of it's 58 "F-16 block A/B" aircraft's at single Mushaf Airbase Sargodha?

What if enemy make Surprise attack on this Airbase and Destroy the whole base at once.

Destroying Pakistan's entire top tier air-force would mean you've defeated Pakistan in one attack........so you should calculate the cost of a surprise attack back too. I think that would answer your question without opening a thread.

Nation's don't attack each other in peace time. Plus, let's say, your radar detect 5 or 10 unusual SU-30's, etc taking off from some Indian airbases (knowing Pakistan sees well over 100 KM inside India at any time)....what would be the outcome? Many of these "parked" birds would be up in the air in no time.

And this is more than likely a US condition to monitor and control her technology's exposure. One place means they can make sure these jets are away from even "visiting" Chinese techies!!

I would better Sends Jaguars SEAD/DEAD With M2K

Due to their Nap of Earth Tactics They can Penetrate Air defences More Easily

 

[ConcealCarry]

response: Nuclear attack

E.g pearl harbor

War time and peace time deployment is different
As for the deployment it defend how birds can be deployed
The simple reason is resource and man force
It saves time teams can help each other
Man force can work more quickly
Can save extra deployment funds because more based will need extra security extra infrastructure many things come in play

What if enemy make Surprise attack on this Airbase and Destroy the whole base at once. and brake our back bone in single strike? i know there are Radar's Monitoring 24-7 our Airspace but we can barely fly not more than 10 f-16's in that time.

Expecting reply from Senior Members no troll Please!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAF_Base_Mushaf

Nothing personal but a little bit of common sense is required here.

1.The 38 Multi Role Wing which is the primary command echelon of 9 and 11 Squadrons is housed at Mushaf Air Base. The sub-units remain close and in contact with their command structure.

2. The maintenance/rearmament etc facilities for F-16's have been in this base since 1990's.

3. During escalation, e.g. 26/11 of India, the alert status in PAF can shift aircrafts to other bases where required like FOB's.

4. The landing and taking off capability from motorway was acquired to be used in alert/war time.

Now a few ambiguities:

Did you personally go to Mushaf Air base and count 58 F-16's parked there in hangars ?
The HQ's of 9 and 11 MR-Squadrons can be housed at Mushaf Airbase but the F-16's can be on duty somewhere else.

F-16's are taking part in Zarb e Azab, they can also be parked in Air bases in Peshawar.
F-16's are also rotated in Northern sectors like Skardu and Gilgit.

And why just F-16's, Why didnt you consider these?
The whole command structure of Pakistan Army sits in GHQ whereas the command structure of Army/Navy/Airforce sits a few km away in JSHQ.

There is only one HIT and POF and both are not far away. PAC also sits close in the same belt.

Kharian cantonment houses 40,000 troops in two infantry divisions and one armoured brigade.

These are just random examples.

There are many welcoming targets in peace time but during crisis or alert or war, deployments change within minutes or hours.

 

[Signalian]

The chances of India attacking Pakistan are remote ,(contrary to popular belief ) we do not want war as it will be detrimental to our growth .

Not true.

RAW can orchestrate a terrorist attack in India on lines of 9/11, 26/11 with damage or mass causalities to justify an attack on Pakistan by India.

 

[aliyusuf]

With someone like Modi in power, it would not be totally improbable that RAW be tasked with the instigation of a plausible war like situation in which India (if US covert go ahead is given) may launch a full scale assault on Pakistan in ala blitzkrieg fashion with a goal of achieving its objectives in a very short time without the Pakistan military suffering too much losses. Otherwise it could all end up in MAD.

Well Guarded like PNS Mehran was?

response: Nuclear attack

So you are MAD scenario fanboy??

Maybe you haven't read my Question Carefully i've already mentioned if they make a surprise attack we would be able to fly not more than 10 f-16s in that time duration. and they could have Destroy whole base with Cruise Missiles from SU-30s.

Secondly we also have Mirages F-7 and Jf-17 Squadron at this Airbase so it means Chinese techi's are still visiting this base.

response: Nuclear attack

Don't ever think it's so easy to make Nuclear attack we Pakistani's should have to change our mind set about Nuclear attack. you cannot just give conventional attack response with Nuclear. there are several international communities watching the whole Scenario 24-7.
