P-3C Orion MPA's aside, in December 2006, the Pakistan Navy did request three excess P-3 Orion aircraft to be equipped with Hawkeye 2000 AEW systems, the overall cost of the program being $855mn (source: "Pakistan seeks P-3s with Hawkeye radar" by Paul Richfield in C4ISR Journal, December 11, 2006)
Lousy uniforms (Second Snap)-- ill designed (Looks like a glorified "Naibh Qasid of the old" uniform) and ill fitting. They could have just worn the shirt tucked-in uniform which is very smart and business like.
Hi
i wonder what would have happened if Pakistan had been a part of Kawasaki p1 project with Japan,
It provides a world-class maritime surveillance capability to the Pakistan Navy, and will be an important contributor to allied operations.
but not Hawkeye
how many in tottal we have P 3C orions now and what type of torpedos they carry
Up date on my earlier post on the above request:
1 upgraded P3C delivered on 19/01/2006
1 upgraded P3C delivered in 0/03/2007
1 upgraded P3C delivered in 0/10/2009
1 upgraded P3C delivered on 7/1/2010
2 upgraded P3C delivered on 30/04/2010
A total of 6 upgraded A/c have been delivered out of a possible 8+5 EDA transfers spanning 2006 to 2008. One was bought for spares. We should expect further deliveries of another six aircraft.
However, we keep on hearing award of contracts for refurbishment and upgrade of systems and support of only 7 P3C's -- These contracts were awarded in early part of 2006 when the first batch of 8 EDA P3's were handed over to PN. This information is in-line with the cannibalization of one of the 8 EDA transfers.
Please also note that PN had also bought 30 Air-Launched Harpoons to equip these aircrafts

Thought this will be useful info.
However, the info is not complete since the fate of the other 5 EDA transfers is not known and any inventory that PN had prior to 2006 is yet to be fully sorted out. Maybe some of the members can shed some light on it.
Thanks for the list of PN P-3s.
I believe only 4 are Update II.5 while the rest are update II?
