Is it confirmed that Pakistan has received Mirage Vs from Egypt? View attachment 677465
PAF is lip tightened on any acquisition or induction.

I spoke with an Ex-EAF technician who said he heard nothing about the deal. I personally think Egypt should modify them and develop avionics and tech to test on them but apparently the decision makers aren’t on the same frequency. I’ll keep checking.PAF is lip tightened on any acquisition or induction.
@Zarvan @airomerix @Bilal Khan (Quwa) @Raider 21 @Tps43 @TsAr @mingleAny update on this ? What happened
Sir why are you putting onus on us. When you exactly know the answer and you want us to tell. I have no clue. Neither about these nor about new jets. But I am pretty sure you and @PanzerKiel know the answer. Sir you don't want to tell us at least don't taunt us.@Zarvan @airomerix @Bilal Khan (Quwa) @Raider 21 @Tps43 @TsAr @mingle
Maybe one of these gents could give an answer.
and this old tweet from Jan 2019
Details of Egypt air force Mirage Vs
Mirage 5SDE : Single-seat radar-equipped fighter-bomber version for Egypt, equivalent to Mirage IIIE; 54 built
Mirage 5E2 : Upgraded radarless attack version for Egypt. 16 built
Mirage 5SDR : Export version of the Mirage 5R for Egypt; six built
Mirage 5SDD : Two-seat trainer for Egypt; six built
Dear Brother,Sir why are you putting onus on us. When you exactly know the answer and you want us to tell. I have no clue. Neither about these nor about new jets. But I am pretty sure you and @PanzerKiel know the answer. Sir you don't want to tell us at least don't taunt us.
I think the French are making this process difficult since they would need to approve the deal, even if Pakistan has a good relationship with France. Their problem would be making India upset and so are either telling both parties to wait, or have refused the deal to go through. I think it's terrible that once you purchase a weapon system like these fighters and they are over a certain amount of years old, the original manufacturer should have no say in the matter unless the acquiring country is an enemy, which Pakistan is most certainly not with the vast amount of Mirages you folks have.
I even made a recent comment on our EAF thread how much I despise the way the French do military business and we've spent over $12 billion with them from Rafales to Mistrals helicopter carriers & LHD to a VERY EXPENSIVE FREMM frigate and 4 Gowind corvettes that we decided to but 24 Rafales first (with an option for 12 more) to see how quick and efficiently the EAF would incorporate such an advanced, 2 engine fighter and turns out it was a super smooth incorporation and they loved them. Now the EAD wants the 12 more and it's worst than pulling teeth. I don't know what the @#$$$%*(*^%Y is wrong with these darn Francois. An option given by a country needs to be honored immediately and the fact that they haven't and are playing games means they are not good to deal with and probably have something to do with this.
No - there is no reason from French to say anything on this.I think the French are making this process difficult since they would need to approve the deal, even if Pakistan has a good relationship with France.
