A mirage fighter crashed awhile ago----its pilot died in the crash while flying the aircraft away from populated area----.

In his memory---his father and few friends rebuilt a railway station in sind---opened up a new hospital and a school----.

This was in dawn newspaper I believe---I posted a link over here as well----but can't find it----.

Please assist---thank you.

He's saying PAF doesn't have new planes, therefore it sucks.

i would like to say that when these air crafts were inducted in paf, at that time they were in young age now they are old.

For the force which is still stuck F7, a suggestion to retire this old timer would be a straight forward heresy. I don't know when will they use a bit of mind and upgrade the fleet

Were PAF Mirage III/V ever re-engined, or was this considered (+if yes, why wasn't it done)? E.g. with Atar09K-50 (Mirage F1, Atlas Cheetah) or with the Klimov SMR-95 (RD-33 variant), which South Africa tried on their Atlas Cheetah, and which is a close relative to the RD-93 powering JF-17?

No I think the engines were only refurbished or repaired at the Mirage Rebuild Factory. If there were a way to cost effectively revamp the Mirages with airframe life restoration, new turbofan engines and updated onboard electronics and radar, I'm in.

And that will cost almost the same as a new build JFT.
Hence the investment in JFTs.

Oh are you talking about Rashidabad?
Meet the Team at RMWO
The pilot's name is Flt. Lt. Rashid Ahmed Khan. His father Air Commodore Shabbir Ahmed Khan lived in my complex. The president of the board of trustees Air Commodore Muhammad Ali Shah is also relative. What information do you need? Do you wish to donate?
