Don't know. But if more second-hand F-16s become available without any sanctions or shortcomings, then PAF should take advantage of the situation.
PAF is a superior force with much more effective resources and project management apparatus...unlike some failures around our region
As PAF commander said, second-hand F-16s will be used to train pilots for F-16s..in this way, PAF F-16 pilots will have 100% training that they require on F-16s, and at the same time, we will save the air-frame time of our latest and upgraded F-16s for war.
Before, our prime F-16 squadrons used to lose a lot of hours for training. Now, our prime F-16 squadrons will have more flying hours for war and combat operations, while our pilots will still get 100% on F-16s at the same time!
This article is based on LCA programme Tejas by HAL,India for the Indian navy and air force.
Programme Base laid in 1969.
Tejas Designed till 1975.
Tejas main role was to replace the MiG-21's in Indian Air Force and Navy.
Manufacturing of the Aircraft started in 1983.
HAL stated that Air Craft would be ready till 1990 and in service in 1995.
The Kaveri Engine was still under development and was not ready even till 1990's.
HAL Delays the project...

HAL Delays the project...
The aircraft had it's first flight on January 4 - 2001 with Kaveri engine powering the aircraft.
The Kaveri engine turns out to be complete failure (after 600million of Investment).
During the upcoming years HAL Tejas prototypes go under tests with Kaveri power-plant , however India gives up on Kaveri and imports American F414 engine's for the Tejas.
HAL reports that they will continue to use the F414 engine till the Kaveri Engine is ready.
Tejas shows up in various air shows across India.
Tejas suffers from technical failures throughout.
HAL confirms to have much improved the Tejas, and these days Tejas true final prototype is going under IAF various tests, If these tests are passed, IAF and Indian Navy will buy Tejas to replace the MiG-21's aging fleet.
Statistics :
Unit Cost (Mark 1) : 27 US million dollars.
Project cost : U.S 1.2 Billion
Number built : 14 (Including Prototypes)
Project age : 31 Years
Status : In Development (according to wikipedia) but It is actually being tested by IAF.
For Kaveri Engine Failure please refer to the Article HAL Tejas - A Tragedy

I am outta here.
you on the spot MrDon't make fool out of yourself.. IAF First introduced mig21 in 1963-64.. Why we want to replace a high end fighter(at that time) in 1969?? HAL started licence production of mig21 in 1967 only..
