Any news about Horus??
I think I have made my stance clear about HorusAny news about Horus??
I recall there was some news on PDF about avionics upgrade of Mirages..any update on that?
IIRC there's a bid for a new glass cockpit (in the Mirages), but don't know of anything more than that.Seems too late, what will any upgrade conceivably give us that a new Block III JF-17 cannot?
Why upgrade airframes that are now many years old (even used ones we have purchased)?
We only have 4 front line Mirage units left, 2 of which may well be retired in the next year or so.
Any decent upgrade to get these planes above ROSE I/II/III standard would by definition be very expensive and may require a more powerful engine.
Mirage has done sterling service for PAF, I would rate it's impact on our air force only behind that of F-86 and F-16, however soon time to say goodbye to this faithful bird....
This colour scheme really reminds me of SAAF Cheetahs.

My guess is f7 pg and f7s(4 squardons) will go firstSeems too late, what will any upgrade conceivably give us that a new Block III JF-17 cannot?

Leaving behind 4 mirage ROSE or mirage 5 till 2030 atleast
So cockpit upgrade might be due
Now if PAF can get few squardons of f16s and j10s then ofcourse this project will be scrapped
Babaji cannot have off springs, although its still sturdy and healthy enough to finish its own fights.Dassault Mirage III/V need JAN NASHEEN.
