Please view my gallery. I uploaded pics of israeli uav in service by IAF --shot down just southwest of Lahore by F-16 Falcon using sidewinder missile.
And regarding F-16s being upgraded by Türk Aerospace Industries --- when will they be completed? As I type this, i believe 1-2 of the aircrafts are in Ankara. The rest will receive upgrade (to block 40 spec) in Pakistan --most probably in Sarghoda.
I have heard some rumours that PAF has some funding issues with respect to this deal ---but it makes no sense --- since deals dont get finalized until the cash is handed over. And as far as i know, US Congress passed authorization for part of the funding to come from US Taxpayers to Lockheed Martin, given our efforts on war against terrorism.
Can somebody with credible knowledge please correct/refute/confirm above statements? I am sitting here wondering when the work will be completed.
regards..
