we used F-86 Sabres in '65 and '71 and those were our flagship fighters at the time.....our Vipers arent there for ceremonial purposes nor are the pilots.
as for doctrines - I'd call it offensive-defence - though being the smaller country it would largely be defensive......going by PAF's track record - Pakistani skies have never been kind to the enemy of the east. Ask any indian pilot that served in 65 or 71, they'll vouch for that
as for offensive-defensive --educate yourself about Pattankot Raid or Kalaikunda for that matter
Stop living in past dude.
There has been too big a gap between iaf and paf of late.
And to think of it we will have pakfa and rafale with lca in good numbers in 10 years time
Paf can just defend and even thats impossible against iaf.
Lastly ur economy cannot sustain any war at all
