Qurban on Oman Air Base

[karakoram]

They should refrain from sadqa of animals these days their F-16 could get Middle east respiratory syndrome in no time lolzz.

So between the pilots and planes, they managed to slaughter and roast the cows.
Damn, that resembles a typical outcome of an India/Pakistan air war scenario.

No ..

The BBQ was masala added by me;the text doesn't suggest so.

Once there were many Pakistani pilots and instructors serving in the ROAF, what's the situation now.

in Air Force tgere r no more then couple of tailors or cooks.maybe handful of mechanical staff.but thats not the case in navy they have alote of pakistanis.also in army's

Don't understand why do they have to do this on the flight line rather than somewhere in the dispersal area.

They're Arabs, that's why!

 

[Xenophon]

Looks like a sadqa to those fighters .

 

[Khafee]

They're Arabs, that's why!

Sorry, Omanis doing this on the flight line has nothing to do with Arabs. It's an ibadi thing I guess. We do sadqa but in a different way, in a slaughter house, and then distribute the meat to the poor and needy.

I think Oman is buying EF-2000s and in good numbers too. I am sure there will be many Rafaels and EF-2000s soon in GCC.

Oman - Good numbers? Sir, they have only bought 12.

KSA already operates 72 EF's

only 48 EF for Saudi not 72 .. plus Oman and Kuwait signed for EF

Yes you are right.

40 something flying + X on order. Total 72

 

[black-hawk_101]

KSA has done really wrong. They should have signed up a deal like:
100 EF-2000s (sell them back Tornadoes as they are now doing which EU can use as spares for current fleet)
100 Rafaels
100 F-15SA (Sell in open market F-15s and F-5)

I am sure if they have took the decision in 2008; then now their AF will have all this in its inventory.

Similar for UAE, they should have opted for about:
100 F-16E/F
80 Rafaels

I know its a big number but really they now have a good role in ME.
