If one has proper financial resources or he is not banned to purchase that material.

Utopian thinking my friend.

How often does PAF fly their AWACS? There would(should) be a round the clock schedule that would ensure continuous and redundant coverage of ones airspace.
If the aircraft are well, and are operating, people from around the airbases should see them.
If the aircraft are well and PAF is not flying them. I don't understand that logic.
If the aircraft are not well, buy more Unless the logic is to get "replacement" for good aircraft

Itne jaldi haar maan gaye kiya dost ............ So that mean our enemies are getting sucessful coz few of our countrymen have lost their hope altogether that they want to sacrifice everything for the lost hope.

yaaro, is it first time our forces shown us their mastering of their incompetency ? look also to our countrymen, how many lost life in Lahore and Karachi just this week ? all due to incompetency and greed... Many Pakistani lost their insannyat... How can Pakistan and Pakistanis survive in this hell ?

I'm not giving up just because we may have lost fex aircrafts, but as i'am following Defence.Pk, Pakdef, and pakistanidefence since the begenning of the 90's, i saw our decline, only our decline....nothing else.

PAF personnel were with it.

And it has been delivered AFAIK.

Do we have 4 Saab 2000 or 5?

There is one with c/n 049 and serial number 10049 also said to be with PAF, although no picture of it anywhere. Was the order scrapped? Only pics of 10025, 10040, 10045 and J019 (formerly AP-OOI)

Second thing, as long as the aircraft is with Saab, and not delivered to PAF< they do not have PAF markings on it, and have a Saab logo on it, and the Swedish civilian registration.

10045 had SE 45 (civilian swedish number), and in the following pic, a aircraft SE 049 is shown. It was supposed to have 10049 registration with PAF. What happened to it?

The induction ceremony picture is of SE-45 (10045), while J019, 10040 and 10025 are pictured with PAF. So, 049 acquisition scrapped?

I think it was delivered to PAF in late 2010/ early 2011. The rest of question are answered by Imran on the following thread.

Those lines by IK are all over the net, but no picture of 10049 anywhere, nor any news. There were a couple of sites where it was said that it was scrapped.

So, if it is delivered, then we have 5 Saabs? 4 AWACS and one transport?

Yes, I think so. Tempest II posted a link (on JF-17 main thread) of SIPRI. It had details of almost all major procurement by Pakistan. You need to look into that for further details.

 

[Jango]

Pakistan has focused on building force multipliers in the last decade. Pakistan entered into the procurement of airborne early warning systems from Sweden and China. In 2005, Pakistan entered into a deal with Sweden for the purchase of 4 SAAB-2000 turboprop aircraft equipped with Erieye Airborne Early Warning and Control systems (AEW&C).

Looks like fifth was scrapped. The defense minister, and minister for defense production both said at induction ceremonies that the other three will arrive later, no mention of fifth by any official. Only pic of fifth is of a SE 049, that too looks kind of photo-shopped.

@Windjammer........is it possible that PAF allowed a couple of the AWACS to get damaged in order to get better ones from the US as replacement? It just occurred to me.

Zardari can make it happen.
