danish f16s are one of the oldest out there, most likely if purchased they will be used for spares

They are old but they were MLU's ..question are they willing to let them go before 2020 ? until they got their first F-35 its their prime fighter , IF get their hands on them ( unlikely ) they can use TAI to upgrade them a bit more and so PAF can use them 2020-2025 as stop gap and adding numbers ..

they have already have had their mlu so having another is pointless especailly on one of first jets to roll of.
if you look at the pic they are at an engine overhaul/testing facility, the danes use the pw f100 engine for their f16's and so does pakistan so it may just be pakistan buying the testing and overhaul facility for their own use

It could be the reason, but i was not talking about MLU again, I am talking about Upgradation from TAI .. remember we bought 18 Vipers from Jordan they were not very new as well but they have had life in them so they are good for Addition of Sq and for AD .. but the point remain intact , Danish Airforce F-35 wont be coming anywhere before 2020 .. so they wont be letting it go anytime soon

PAF even convinced Chinese to have a a look at the Danish F-16.
