Exclusive Images & Video of PAF Escort for Saudi Crown Prince

This may be a silly question - but did the escort change due to range issues? Because the JF17s couldn't stay with MBSs plane for the whole journey?
The escort most certainly started once MBS's B787 entered Pakistan's Airspace.

Now, MBS's Dreamliner was not flying over Iranian Airspace, so they must have taken the Arabian Sea route.

I think the question should be if he had an escort of KSAAF all the way through to Pakistan. It would require some synchronizing...

KSAAF escorting from Saudi Arabia to UAE. And another set of KSAAF F-15's taking over from UAE Airbase upto Pakistan.

The Foreign Minister arrived on a Saudi Aramco Aircraft. I believe its a B767-200ER.

What a wonderful display.. Thanks PAF!

India has decided to offer similar protocol to their valuable guest by flying 12 Tejas around this jet. Since the planes are not ready yet, they have postponed the offering until year 2052.

Haha you thought I was serious? Na naa.. the actual year is 2062!

So it is unanimous. Pakistanis make excellent escorts :bunny::rofl:

Instead of yapping around here ... see if you can get your Tejas flying ..

Some hawan pouja or Yuni pouja may do the trick ..

Why bring Tejas in this thread? :angry:

How many countries reciprocate this gesture to Pak president or prime minister when they fly to their countries. You lot come of as desperate needy underlings. Nothing more

Well, with my first airline in Pakistan we used to fly straight from Karachi towards Muscat and then bank right (north) towards the UAE.

However, we my current airline in the UAE, we go (north) into Iran and than we go to different cities in Pakistan.

It all depends on the routes and Flight Plans by the airline.

What was the need for that??
Who would have sent fighter jets to shoot saudi jet down ???
It just makes other feel superior
This is a sign of welcome and an opportunity to get noticed if you know what I mean. It is symbolic gesture of friendship and honour which was initially shown to the Chinese Premier and now to MBS.

Is that a Block II?
Seems to have the air-to-air refueling capability visible from this angle.

Right guys, the news i have is that the F-16 Escort joined the V.I.P flight and JF-17 formation after sunset in the dark thus it was impossible to capture the Falcon formation due to the darkness and Block-52D was indeed the camera ship.

@Hodor , Sir off topic but what does an ORI visit involves as that was the event taking place at Sahbaz earlier.
Boss believe me if I knew what event took place at Shahbaz I would have already told you.

I dont think either of the escorts were there for the whole time.JFTs had 3 drop tanks each so they could easily escort 787 to Chaklala.

High Profile People travel all the time.I dont think there was any escort by Saudi AF.Paf ecort was only for giving protocol and not due to some kind of threat.
