Pakistan F-16 Discussions 2

Don't go by the intercept lights, these are MLUs, apparent by the lack of IFF antennas under the chin/intake.
 
The only reason Pakistan was able to get the F-16s from Jordan was because the USN did not want to give its 14 F-16A/Bs up that are part of its aggressor squadron, unlike the USAF that did. Thus, of the original 28 embargoed F-16s, PAF got some from the USAF and the rest through Jordan, and Jordan later refilled its rank with more F-16s from Europe.

The Navy and the Marine Corps have used them extensively for their NSAWC programs. A stressed out airframe would not have proved more expensive in the long run. Also they are utilizing it well within their service, hence the USAF options were more feasible.

Alan Warnes does get around for sure !!!!
 
US just approved 15 surplus F-16s to Jordan, strange considering Jordan is trying to sell some of it's vipers. Could be a way of circumnavigating things and making sure PAF gets Jordan F-16s and Jordan replaces them via US?

Its possible but one would assume first the f16 in jordan would be released
Or this could just be spares for jordianian f16s

PAF is kind to him.

This must have been a while ago. Great person.
 
message me please... or rather email

Thank You for the tag brother, there are a lot of developments, and the situation is well past "offer", but no more #Khafee leaks for this forum.

Best Regards

I hope the 70/72 deal, for both new aircrafts and upgrades for the existing fleet, materialises soon now. That should keep IAF from any misadventures for the next decade and beyond. The next generation fighter should be ready by then.
