Zephyr24 -- my abba's callsign circa 1964 :D

Scabbard used to be assigned to Base Commander Sargodha at one time.

Not urdu call signs then
 
there are some now. but back in the day it was english.

Sherdil, Ghazi are there now
Urdu, English or Swahili call signs are pretty much irrelevant. What matters is up to date and stringent training standards merged with decent equipment. With that it doesn’t matter if the pilot was called kodu and his flight is Faltu-1 and faltu-2 - they will still succeed.

While these are part of culture and mostly service camaderie - it is up to the servicemen to determine their ethos rather than objections(not referring to you but in general) by armchair generals

Bro we all know that but it's part of the fun being a pilot and how they get their call signs. Also what's the harm in discussing this? You suddenly went all serious. Surely this is not a taboo subject??
 
No. That's just being too optimistic.
So how many approx.? It is not like things would be stagnant since 2019...
 
Blast from the past...

Since then PAC engineers have never looked back & integrated a bulk of weapon stores & avionics on all versions of JF-17...
