Sir with due respect..... but i thought you were the most authentic source of PAF Viper... you asking this sought of question really raised my eyebrow!

An older version flying solo made me curious..... and just to be sure, isn't it good to get a second opinion. !!
 
well looks like we are gonna be sanctioned again i wonder what will happen to the f 16 now :/

we are creating some of spares ourselves and upgrading F-16s engine at PAC....
well in case of sanctions for long time all F-16s would be grounded and it will result in emergency acquiring of 3-4 squadrons J-10Bs....:yu:

This is and will remain a constant threat - and yet it's interesting that Pakistani armed forces, especially senior officers, seem to have more than a soft spot for the US - Pakistani defense acquisitions, sorry, defense grants, because Pakistan generally is not in a position to purchase top of the line defense equipment, that it seems to think it must have.

Still love those F16? No worries Uncle will allow you to fly them, when uncle decides it's in uncle's interests - in the meantime just collect your salary that uncle subsidizes
 
what ever f-16 have can be accomplished with jf-17 your are only missing 1 g worth of what ever you wanna call it, AND F-16 will retire from the USAF soon So then Paf Will have to look at a Jf-17 based Stealth Fighter which can rival F-35 offcourse single jet
F-16 and Paf is bassed on the fact that USaF have these USAF had Sabers PAF got SABers USAF got F-16 PAF got f-16 USAF will get f-35 PAF will have to get some thing bassed on that that rivals it and US wont sell f-35 to Paf so only option left is China and I think Jf-17 Out performs F-16 because of capabilities it has
