Mirage, F-7PG and other combat aircrafts

[Imran Khan]

This is how Politics works rally the crowds...USA is going to sell them all the weapons because they are trying to make the Arabs vary.


Sir, Joke or not but the F-15's of F-18 are going to be part of Iran Air Force... This is going to compensate the older order of F-14 and F-16's...

its almost impossible .

What is the lifetime of engines f7pg and Mirages? ?
Russian engines have a short lifetime. RD33 (MIG29) engine has 500 hours life time.
How can PAF trust aircrafts? Or You dont have another choice?

The Initial RD 33 without turbine modifications had a ridiculously low engine life of 350-400 hours before overhaul. In most of the engines which came with the initial batch of fulcrums for the Indian air force , the engine TBO was kept at 200 hrs to reduce a whole bunch of accidents.Most of the contry's operating the MiG 29 (Atleast India and Germany) made modifications to the turbine section to increase this. Currently the overhaul times for the engine is about 650-700 hours , rarely reaches 700 hours though. The problem with the RD 33 was that while it gave enormous power it always used to overheat. That caused turbine failures. The engines manufactured by HAL under license all have the improved turbine section incorporated in them.

F-7s and Mig21s should have been retired in 2005, its. Shame we are still flying them in 2015
Pakistani Mirages are over 40 years old, they too need to be laid

F-16 were built in 80's and they are still the prime fighting machines of USAF, USN and US Army. Old doesn't mean it cannot fly. Necessary modifications and MLU'S make every old aircraft if not new but atleast at par.
