What's new

This is how PAF Flies

Found a better quality footage, apparently it's a mission over Northern Areas.


Several things come to mind.

1. Looks like Pakistani version of Mach loop.
2. @Foxtrot Delta stole my words :) This type of flying is essential against radar threats. Using mountains as protection, reach near the enemy, perform a fast pull, release ALCM, and scramble, potentially under the cover of mountains again.
3. They need to practice high speed flying amongst these mountains. Even hold 1v1 1vmany exercises here.
4. Conversely, PAF needs good radar coverage here so that the enemy cannot use these approaches against us.
 
Say good bye to radars in those thousands of meters deep canyons mountains and valleys. Most dangerous terrain for flights...

Too bad DCS World openbeta doesnt have a map with matching heights and terrain.

Looks like an F-16 canopy not 100% sure.

BRAVO PAF.
It is a dual seat F-16, apart from the canopy, the ejection seat lay out is obvious plus you can see the pilot's shoulder patch reflection in the canopy glass.
