No American soldiers.. Just LM representatives out there to provide product support...a sign of a good supplier..
They'll leave once they have taught us all we need to know.

The front seater has JHMCS. Not the backseater.

That would be the normal practice but here they are probably testing the system. Some where in the forum is another close up of the same aircraft on the ground, where the back seater is more obvious wearing the JHMCS.

Referring to my post#15, sorry to break this to you now guys, no forth coming issue(s) of the AFM will be covering any material on the BLOCK-52s unless the PAF has any change of heart. Instead you will get to read articles on the Pakistan Naval Aviation and also get to see new images of production JF-17s as well as other equipment. Hence thank your blessings that I managed to obtain the exclusive image of Block-52 with Conformal Fuel Tanks.

Found this interesting piece of information regarding the MLU programme for the older PAF's F-16.

The PAF MLU avionics upgrade kits are being designed to provide the PAF Block 15A/B aircraft with many of the same capabilities as the new Block 52 F-16s that the PAF is procuring. The MLU kit replaces most of the 1980s avionics in the Block 15s with newer, advanced avionics systems from the Block 52 F-16s. The MLU upgrade kits will include: APG-68(V)9 radar; Embedded GPS/INS (EGI); Link-16 data link; APX-113 Advanced Identify Friend or Foe (AIFF); Color Cockpit with Color Moving Map; ALQ-211(V)9 Advanced Integrated Defensive Electronic Warfare Suite (AIDEWS) Pod; Night Vision Imaging System (NVIS) Cockpit and External Lighting; Sniper Advanced Targeting Pod; Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System (JHMCS); Reconnaissance Pod capability; improved avionics systems; JDAM capability; EGBU capability; AIM-120 AMRAAM capability; and AGM-84 Harpoon capability. While many of the avionics systems and capabilities are common with the new Block 52s and the MLU, some significant differences remain between the MLU F-16 Block 15s and the new PAF Block 52s: there are no improvements to the Block 15s mission range and loiter time; there are no engine improvements; and, there are no improvements to payload capacity. Overall, the MLU program will extend the service life of PAF’s original F-16 aircraft and very significantly increase the capability of the PAF to conduct Close Air Support and night precision attack missions.Thus armed with state of the art weapons’ and avionics suite, the F-16 MLU-III could fight any aircraft of the Indian Airforce maintaining the same level of threat which the Indians faced during the 80s and 90s.

All PAF F-16 pilots would be equipped with JHMCS

Confirmed upgrade on the ex RAAF C-130E's..
Not sure about the other airframes.. although I believe it was a fleetwide upgrade.

Pakistan to get C-130 cockpit kits from US
Islamabad, UNI:



Dawn newspaper quoted a spokesman for the PAF as saying that the air force would be getting the upgrade kits for its current fleet and added that it was one of the components of the 75 million dollars agreement with the US government.


The United States will provide five C-130 plane cockpit upgrade kits to the Pakistan Air Force(PAF) to improve operational capabilities of the ageing fleet of its main transport aircraft.
The United States Air Force has awarded the six million dollars contract to Rockwell Collins for supplying avionics kits to the PAF.
Dawn newspaper quoted a spokesman for the PAF as saying that the air force would be getting the upgrade kits for its current fleet and added that it was one of the components of the 75 million dollars agreement with the US government that also included the sale of six C-130 aircraft to Pakistan.
The upgrade contract will be completed in a year and it is expected that the PAF will start getting the deliveries by the later part of 2008.
''The upgrade project would help us benefit from the technological advancements on C-130s,'' said the PAF spokesman. Although, the details of what would be covered under the upgrade package have not been disclosed, but it has been learnt that the avionics and display systems company is likely to provide communication, navigational and surveillance system including Flight 26X8 inch multi-function displays, AN/ARC-210 radios, SAT-2000, multimode receivers, automatic direction finder and high frequency data link upgrades.
After the upgrades the C-130s are expected to have improved situational awareness, reduced crew workload and enhanced flight safety features.
