How good is the source? If true, Peshawar boys are lucky to see them first.

Maybe you right. I was under the impression the PGs were only in Smungli and Rafiqui.

This patch once again confirms multi-launcher racks.

Missing front MAWS and hardpoint. Are you sure this is a block 3?

On a different note, an IAF Mirage 2000 has crashed.

Looks like IAF has run out of all the MiG-21 pieces, so they are now crashing Mirage 2000

Not sure how you can see MAWS from this angle as even Block 2 comes with them.
Hard points are also removable.
The bigger launch rail makes me think its Block 3
@Hodor , Sir your thoughts.
