THANK'S
for this usefull post actully PAF is trying to fill the gap by this type of deal's they also buy the useless plan's from lebia the use the parts for upgrad old mirage thats why this deal have weight let see what happen
You are welcome , i just wanted to post some more points on this topic.
1: First reason why i would say that we should buy these Mirage 2000-9's is that THIS IS THE BEST OPTION for filling our gap and to counter IAF MKI/MMRCA threat more effectively , and i am optimistic that if we go for these Birds then Arabs will give us a very good deal. As i have said before they know what we are going through.
UAE has ""Gifted
power plants "" to Pakistan , this shows their stance on Pakistan.
Secondly we are due to replace our old F-7's and A-5's and Mirages with our JF17 thunder which is really good.
But just think of this , Our BOYS getting out of Flight acadamy and first experiance they will have would be a JF 17 thuder or a Mirage 2000-9 , a huge leap in Combat training where our ""kids"" will fly these birds not the Old crap , this definately have a Boosting effect on training .
2nd reason is that our Pilots love their Mirages & vipers dont they ! . If we get these ones we will put them in Mirage rebuild factory & by the time it will come out this would be a NEW beast like no other because of our experiance with Mirage platform.
3rd reason : Viper is the best we have if we even have to have a little accessory for it we need US we cant modify it like Isreal
!! but we can make custom modifications in these mirages .
4th point: i would like to talk about some ""MISCONCEPTIONS"" about arabs in PDF forum , i have seen people talking about them that they are ABCDEFG but hang on a minute who are the first ones to respond to your misery ??
Remember the King Abdullah's statement on 2005 earthquake if not "" he ordered to make an Arieal bridge of Aid to Pakistan "" means if one C130 is landing on Chaklala the 2nd one must be on the runway taxing in Jeddah.
Dont they say Paksitan
the "" Fortress of Islam"" would'nt they provide some "horses & spears"" to protect it
!
Trust me guys i think we should go for this one they will give us a really good deal & BTW these birds have been just recently Upgraded by Dassault.
Lets see if it gets to AHQ.
Vipers / FC-20 / JF-17 thunder/ Mirage 2000-9's will do the job for US for time being.
