I think PAF should obtain the Typhoon for the following reasons.
1)it is a European platform which allows access to high technology other than American sources. The political aspect is just as important as the military in that it shows the US Pakistan has other options.
2) militarily it allows PAF access to ej200 and other modern western capabilities such as the meteor missile. Even in small numbers it establishes some sort of parity with Indian rafales and other future platforms.
3) hopefully PAF joins Turkish TFX program and given BAE is reported to be involved in that, I am sure aspects of the eurofighter will be used in TFX. This allows PAF to gain familiarly with the technology in some capacity.
4) given recent reports of Qatar, turkey, and Pakistan military cooperation, I hope Pakistan can use Qatar financial assistance in some capacity. Bottom line, muslim countries must work together to ensure that they are not being either controlled or oppressed by western countries. That means working together despite differences to synergies capabilities. For example I hope Pakistan can use Qatar money to obtain modern capable systems. The value is that these systems can inshAllah be utilized to their full potential by capable personel. The sooner muslim countries realize this, the better off they will be.
5) IN a similar manner PAF obtaining typhoon would allow commonality with Saudi Air Force with its typhoons. Theoretically allowing the two countries mutual support. For example PAF would have familiarity with Typhoon in the even Saudi Arabia needed Pakistani assistance. Similarly Pakistan would have access to Saudi aircraft if the need arose. Of course the two examples would be in the most extreme circumstances however it is still valid.
6) Pakistan needs to take advantage of this opportunity to obtain used trance 1 Italian and perhaps Spanish or U.K. Examples now because the opportunity may pass. Take advtange while you can.
7) obtaining typhoon would allow Pakistan a 4.5 generation platform which would allow PAF to take its time with procuring a 5th generation aircraft. Also this 5th generation platform is a relative unknown in terms of capability whether it is Chinese or Turkish. I.e. It will not be a proven American aircraft. Obtaining typhoon mitigates this.
8) ultimately PAF know the capabilities adding typhoon to its inventory will have and I have confidence it will do the right thing. Whether or not it is worth the time and expense. However I hope it deliberates on the points presented above. Thoughts bilal khan quwa, windjammer, oscar, bilal777?
