officailly, i got this from a friend in the feild. (not zarvan's source/friend)Would that be officially or on PDF?
For all the weekend warriors, PAF checked out the EF Typhoon back in 2006 when the then ACM and not the COAS , along with some senior pilots visited RAF and evaluated the Typhoon.
ACM TANVIR MAHMOOD AHMED - CHIEF OF THE PAKISTAN AIR FORCE FLYING EURO FIGHTER OF 29 RESERVE SQUADRON OF RAF ON 1ST NOVEMBER, 2006.HE BECAME THE FIRST PAKISTANI IN THE HISTORY TO FLY IN THE EURO FIGHTER TYPHOON.
He flew on a good will visit as a guest by the RAF. He did not evaluate the Typhoon. Another team of pilots and engineers evaluated the Typhoon.For all the weekend warriors, PAF checked out the EF Typhoon back in 2006 when the then ACM and not the COAS , along with some senior pilots visited RAF and evaluated the Typhoon.

If anything apart from JF-17, the PAF is interested in is the F-16s.Thanks for the share.
So the decision of not acquiring is being revisited or this thread here is a speculative one?
This is what i said, at least one of those pilot was already in UK for the JSCC and accompanied the ACM.He flew on a good will visit as a guest by the RAF. He did not evaluate the Typhoon. Another team of pilots and engineers evaluated the Typhoon.
What he forgets to tell you he is a South African but with Ganga origins. Bit like me, a British with Indus-Pak orgins. If I hid my Pak flag you would still figure out my origins by the signature I would leave behind on PDF.Bad mouth China and Pakistan, everybody can see you have nothing worth advise for us.
"old stuff"
The first Eurofighter Typhoon for Austria arrived in July 2007....
You mean, as compared to 'new stuff' (Mirage Rose 3)
Not the first Pakistani pilot, Tiffy has been flown in earlier by an informal group sent over during the late 90s- early2000s.For all the weekend warriors, PAF checked out the EF Typhoon back in 2006 when the then ACM and not the COAS , along with some senior pilots visited RAF and evaluated the Typhoon.

Not for the role the PAF uses the Mirage ROSE II/III - i.e. deploying stand-off range munitions.Isn't Typhoon a beauty , even T-1 is far better than those Super old Mirages ROSE/III .. what i read on some Articles Typhoon T-3 is second best Air superiority Fighter after F-22 Raptor .. Typhoon is expensive but this investment will pay of to PAF in long run ..
T1 to me have always looked like an airplane made in haste!Not for the role the PAF uses the Mirage ROSE II/III - i.e. deploying stand-off range munitions.
When you look into it, the Typhoon Tranche 1 is a bizarre fighter. Yes it is a superb air-to-air platform, but you can't do much for air-to-ground besides maybe dropping LGB and PGBs. On top of that, one can't feasibly upgrade them to T2 or T3 standards, even the CAPTOR-E AESA retrofit is questionable. Then, to make it worse, there apparently isn't a lot of commonality between the T2/T3 and T1, meaning, you'd end up with two different platforms if you operate both of them.

The T1 literally is not capable of deploying SOWs such as ALCM. The range and payload is basically irrelevant unless you're planning to live with the T1 as a pure air superiority fighter.the major Job of our Mirage is launch strike from a distance, how T-1 compared to Mirage, in terms of range and payload capability ? T-1 can be bizarre but Mirages are way past their flying lives .
