Coming to think of it, PAF has radically changed in the past decade.

From A-5s to a backbone of 4th gen JF17s and F16s. The F7s have been reduced to a third of what we had, and our AWACS capacity has increased to 10 systems, indicating that the High Command wants all corners of the nation's airspace secure. Base Air Defense has also improved with Spada systems.

Missile tech like the Ra'ad and new purchases of ARMs and BVRs have also improved our strike prowess. We're looking for a 5th gen program seriously and have Block 3s rolling out soon, with a chance that the rest of the Thunder fleet gets AESAs too.

If we keep going on this course, we could be entering into a golden age for the PAF soon.

Was watching an exclusive interview by Kamran Shahid (On the Front) of Cameron Munter, the former US Ambassador to Pakistan, a couple of days back.

Mr. Munter is now CEO & President of The EastWest Institute - whatever the hell that is.

If you scroll to timecode 32:27 of the interview, Kamran speaks of the Military Aid (suspended by Donald Trump) and the question has been strategically dodged by Mr. Munter.

Apologies for most questions by Kamran Shaid have been dubbed in Urdu.

Air Chief Marshal, Mujahid Anwar Khan says Pakistan Air Force is proud of its futuristic and dynamic approach and is always open to new ideas.

can we buy jh 7 in minimum price and then upgrade them without using much money on other platform ?

 

[salman-1]

Jh7 buying is like newly made Rose Mirage 3/5. It's an old dud, old fashioned old design like F4 phantom. Not in production any more. We should move on to J-10c which can bring strike ability manifold

Jh7 as I told you brother no more in production. If you ask Chinese they would offer you other planes like J10. J10 has all the capabilities of strike, maritime strike and air interception.
