main points in translation--

''paf's fighters including the f-16s are 25-40 years old due to late release of funds from the finance ministry --- paf should be revamped immidiately''-- politicians in parliment house

budget is coming, since Defence was uselessly criticized by comparing it with Education, thats why they need to emphasis more on defence needs.

Well, its good to some extend.

'Old is gold'

The older the wine, better the result.
So, (within certain limits), the older the jets, the more flying experience so better knowledge about crafts. This would result in more better flying and fighting with ol' boys.

Agreed. Pakistan needs to raise it defence share of GDP to at leasr 10-11% of its GDP.

Afterall, Pakistan needs to defend itself from India too...

Are you serious brother. Even if they do it the defence budget will be around 20 billion and they will still not manage to match India. They will break just like Soviet Union did in order to increase defence expenditure despite poor economy.
