Great news....while Coas in US, it could be true for WoT needs.
If a Northrop Grumman AN/APG-80 AESA (Sabre Upgrade) or Raytheon's APG-79 AESA radar, a Super Viper, similar to F-16 Block 60 would make more sense?
Plus: General Electric F110-132A engine with 143 kN full afterburning thrust with FADEC Controls and Advanced all-color glass cockpit.
It will give a significant boost to our capabilities.
PakDef Forums doesnot tell us that this is actually subject to 'Congress Approval' and USMC requirement is first met.
New Recruit
Slave mentality continues. Doesn't Pakistan know that anything they get from USA is sanction prone and comes with strings attatched?
Why not spend same money to buy sanctions/strings free chinese or Russian stuff or make more JF-17s.
And cobra AH-1Z will effectively finish off MI-35 / 28 procurement and put us back into the claws of USA firmly.

Funny we buy American goods for special operations , and you buy Russian for special operations..AH-1Z IF cleared for sale, would replace our cobras. The Mi-35E deal has already been signed. The deliveries will begin early next year. The Mi-35 is not a replacement for the Cobras. Its for Special Operations Forces.
Hi,
For the F 16's---we don't need the congress's approval---we already have the approval for 18 more. Correct me if I am wrong---thank you.
aaaye lmao some of us think we shouldn't be selling anything to Pakistan
Pakistan is clearly a Chinese ally and are in their claws.
so why should we sell top of the line F-16s and our newest Super Cobra so China can analyze them???
we have to be crazy to continue selling to Pakistan and still think India is going to turn a blind eye to it.
cut off selling military equipment and military aid, but I'm fine with continuing economical and humanitarian assistance to Pakistan though
Hasn't Pakistan asked for the the AH-1Z in the past and been denied?
A devastatingly handsome (and lethal) beast:
I always wonder why the PA didn't request the AH-64 though. The AH-1Z makes sense for the USMC but surely the AH-64D/E would be far more suited for the PA?
F-16 purchase was always on cards... Money is the only issue. If we had enough in the first place we might have gone for the full option of 36. But i guess the delay was actually to gather enough money to buy more...i speculate..and the super cobra sale can be a counter by the americans to the MI-35 deal..Any thoughtful ideas??

Times have changed..
