PAF Pilots have unmatched professionalism: Chief of USAF

[Muhammad Omar]

All that later, let's enjoy Independence day celebrations today.
This is a PAF F-16 releasing flares over PAF Academy Risalpur last night.

No doubt! Our pilots are true gems and they have always proved their worth. Few minutes ago i was in discussion with a legend retired F-16 pilot. He said that PAF pilots in F-16s can whip the most advanced weapons of our adversaries.

Why USAF Chief visiting Pakistan? For "Do more" thing or something else?

New assignments are coming up for PAF. After Turkish coup, change of interest in the region.

Any doubt....although we know PAF likes to keep a tab on these things.

I used to live in Alexandria behind Pentagon city and worked in Fairfax which is also close by. I met so many USAF pilots there and they used to tell me how they all thought PAF guys were just amazing & best pilots ever! A freind f mine joined USAF years later and said the same thing.

India will perform new assignments, not Pakistan as they are really annoyed with us.

Guys don't take these statements too seriously, they don't prove or disprove anything. Their public affairs dept. knows what will make Pakistani nation go gaga, and they said it. I mean how much of interaction is there between the two AF's for anyone to evaluate the other and make such a comment.

No! you did not meet any USAF pilot and they did not make any such comments. Last time two AF's had a brief interaction was in 2010 Red flag, now they will have a brief interaction again in 2016, and btw most USAF pilots taking part in these exercises are rookies, and PAF sends it elite in such exercises, so even if ( though I highly doubt it) any USAF rookie pilot made any such comments, I would take them as a general good natured polite comment.

Some sources got mixed up and quoted RAF but it was definitely Italians.
The Saudi Typhoons and Eagles suffered even worse at the hands of PAF boys.

Any reference backing your claim?

There is no second thought abt unmatched professionalism of paf
Paf is best since 1965 and hold record of destroying 5 Indian fighter jets in 45 seconds

So I guess they really were upgraded to block 50 standard.

Some say closer to Block-52. ???

Block 50 and 52 are the same standard. The different designations are to differentiate between the engine being used i.e. F110-GE-129 in the Block 50 and F100-PW-229 in the Block 52. Ironically the engine is one of the things holding back the upgraded birds from attaining the standard in full, since the upgrade did not involve changing the engine. Hence rendering the block 50 Vs 52 standard question moot.
