well that is why i floated this question..
actually one of my friends at Sargodha Airbase told me that there are some old electronic warfare planes already stationed at Sargodha,, i cannot exactaly remember what that plane was but it was some old aircraft with some electronic suites like jammers, EW kits onboard. this gave me an idea that perhaps the AWE&C would also go there but i was concerned with Sargodha lying so close to the boder!!
anyhow the current plane is at Kamra, we all know that but it is not stationed there permantly but is only there for testing and evaluation plus training puropose. no Squadron has been eastablished for it at Kamra!
regards!
Your talking about D20 Falcons, the airframe for the Aircraft might be old but certinely not the Electronics that this Aircraft carries.

Hi,
Can any one kindly tell from where i can get Saab 2000 Erieye model in Pakistan, if any one knows please let me know, Thanks
Last time i bought a model in pak was in karachi air force museum. Im not sure about Islamabad, i have searched every corner in islamabad but couldnt find it. heck i am still looking for a hobby shop.
Hi, according to this post Sweden has banned future weapons exports to Pakistan. I also think Pakistan should have bought the ERIEYE on the Embraer jet plan, rather than the SAAB 2000 turboprop. Thanks!

Swedish Arms Exports Rose 7 Percent in 2009

Published: 10 Mar 2010 14:13 Print | EmailHELSINKI - Sweden's weapon exports rose 7 percent compared with 2008 to $1.9 billion in 2009, the Inspektionen for Strategiska Produkter (ISP), the country's state agency for nonproliferation and export controls, said.
The ISP's report, released on March 8, rates the 7 percent increase as the highest annual percentage growth since the organization began monitoring weapon exports in 1996. The ISP controls the export of equipment, including dual civilian and military products and systems.
The leading five export destinations in 2009 were the Netherlands, $352 million; South Africa, $240 million; Pakistan, $197 million; Finland, $140 million; and Britain, $127 million.
The report noted that the majority of Sweden's exports in 2009 went to markets in the European Union, as well as to the country's "established partners," including the United States and South Africa. Together, these accounted for 80 percent of all exports.
Weapon exports to other markets, including Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Thailand, continued in 2009, ISP said. Sweden banned new arms sales to Pakistan in 2007, but continues to fulfill contract obligations relating to Erieye, said Andreas Ekman, the ISP's director general.
"We continue to honor contracts agreed before 2007 until they run out," said Ekman.
Significant exports included the sale of the Combat Vehicle 90 to the Netherlands and the JAS 39 Gripen aircraft to South Africa. A total of 53 percent of Sweden's weapon exports were sold to European countries, including EU members and Norway and Switzerland.
Apart from the United States and South Africa, the 27 percent of weapons exports sold to established partners outside the European Union included Australia, Canada, South Korea and Singapore.
Exports constituting 20 percent of the total for 2009 were sold to some 20 other countries, including Pakistan, $197 million; India, $126 million; Malaysia, $18 million; Thailand, $11.4 million; and the United Arab Emirates, $9 million.
