Thank you. I went on the net and found PIA had leased or was looking to lease 5 platforms. However as you have rightly pointed out there is a glut in the second hand market and provided one has money the plarforms can be had for cheap.Around 10 active. Point is there are plenty of used ATR airframes (especially after Covid) that we can buy cheaply, why deprive PIA?
Around 5 out of that 4 operational and one storedHow many ATR72s are currently in PIA? Help appreciated in advance.

I can’t find any reason whatsoever for PN going towards ATR-72 despite having SAAB-2000 infrastructure in-house.
Do we have any video of C802 launch from JF-17?
So originally 5 are planned?
Four hardpoints can be added out of which front two can carry ASM but ours have only two and that too for the torpedos only.

plz read again the article attached is discussing about PN Sea Eagle ....Four hardpoints can be added out of which front two can carry ASM but ours have only two and that too for the torpedos only.
4 as far as I understand, one was already converted other three were intended to be converted depending upon availability of Budget .....So originally 5 are planned?
I think Exocet Missiles would have more chances of Integration with Sea Eagle rather then C-802 probably because of the reason that both Exocet Missile and Sea Eagle are European origin systemsFrom past live firing videos it seems Exocet launched from Sea King launch this way i.e missle is released and afterwards it turns on its rocket.
In addition to 7 P-3C [link] additional 4 ATR Sea Eagle would give a decent number of 11 aircrafts for MPAs, while within next decade Jet power MPAs would also join so Pakistan Navy will have decent number of MPAs and Aerial subhunters platforms which not only cover Arabian Sea but a beyond Arabian Sea deep into Indian Ocean.ATR will not go sub hunting all round the Indian Ocean, probably just Arabian Sea and near Pak Coast
