US Approves Possible Sale Of F-16 Equipment To Pakistan: Pentagon

[Abid123]

Exactly why should we buy overpriced Western shit?

We should take an F-16 apart and reverse engineer it with Chinese help and make our own derivatives and chassises.

Make more advanced planes from JF-17s, J-10Cs, and the Chinese Flanker models.

We should focus on JF-17 block 3 and J-10C for this decade.

When China has all the technologies.

Soon China will have its own Turbofan technology.

China still have to match with western technology and slowly and steadily she is moving ahead to be equal with others in this race.specially in field of metllargy engineering which is very vital for manufacturing of turbine blades of required strength,china still struggling and i do hope that she would pace up soon with world jet engine manufacturers.In electronics china has crossed many mile stones with out any doubt.

Bajwa zindabad!!!!! This is what a leader does for the country.
Not like IK, what did he do for Pakistan??
Idiot tried to raise Pakistans respect in the world. We don’t need that, more F-16 please.

F-16s will ensure that Pakistan will have upper hand over the Indians for foreseeable future.

For fuc*s sake... We dont need F-16 equipment/upgrade for 450 million USD... Spend that money on the flood victims.

Our Army is already doing a yeoman job to help the people effected by the floods.

F-1s6 will be funded by the US so it will not impact other programs.

We need to reduce our dependence on China as China will get sanctioned like Russia.

Exactly why should we buy Western shit.

When China has all the technologies.

Soon China will have its own Turbofan technology.

US technology is superior to the Chinese.

Nope lanat on the cock sxckixg generals who will get permanent residence for selling pakistan

We also got a F 16 package back in 2019 when Imran Khan visited the US.
Was Imran Khan also sucking American cock??

 

[MajesticPug]

Why should we buy overpriced western shit?

When J-10C is a Chinese alternative choice with similar capabilities and less the cost?

J10C can easily gun down the F16's Pakistan currently has. The latest F16V not in Pak's hands can give a better match than whatever India and Pakistan have but are still inferior in air-to-air battles.

 

[Metal 0-1]

paid such a high price for pieces of metal
lanat is qoum pai

I bet you'll throw your exact amount money at any metal coming from China

 

[Sifar zero]

PAF was using F-16's to bomb it's own people during the height of US war of terror...

So TTP plus khawarijs were our own people???

 

[NA71]

again they are selling pop corns to keep us on their side and we are delighted .... sick mentality ....

PAF has been hypnotized...after 100yrs from today ....we will be celebrating US help to keep F-16 safely taking off and landing back on Air bases.

 

[Catalystic]

Already mulk aur awam aur saray assets baich diyay, ab ye technology kya kerni ha??

Mulk imf, who, wef k hawalay ker chukay ho ab kis liyay ye jahaz chahiya??
Awam to bhooki nangi mer rahi, inko f16 aur j20c k khwab arahay

Oh bhai ye unke liyay hotay jo ghairatmand hotay hain….jo mulk ko baich k kha nai jatay

Sorry we awam refuse to believe this bullshit expense. Besides the usa will never give u upgrades or new f16. Ye jo junk ha isi ko uratay raho jabtak possible ha

Uranay ki b kya zarorat jab KHI pe indian planes easily landing kerte phirte….
Sorry no longer hav confidence on this army/paf/navy……

Sorry if it offends u guys but awam k ab yehi jazbat hain

The US State Department has approved the potential sale of F-16 aircraft sustainment and related equipment to Pakistan in a deal valued at up to $450 million, the Pentagon said on Wednesday.

The principal contractor will be Lockheed Martin Corp(LMT.N), the Pentagon said.

The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Pakistan of F-16 Case for Sustainment and related equipment for an estimated cost of $450 million. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today.

The Government of Pakistan has requested to consolidate prior F-16 sustainment and support cases to support the Pakistan Air Force F-16 fleet by reducing duplicate case activities and adding additional continued support elements. Included are U.S. Government and contractor engineering, technical, and logistics services for follow-on support of Pakistan’s F-16 fleet to include:

— Participation in F-16 Aircraft Structural Integrity Program
— Electronic Combat International Security Assistance Program
— International Engine Management Program
— Engine Component Improvement Program, and other technical coordination groups
— Aircraft and engine hardware and software modifications and support
— Aircraft and engine spare repair/return parts
— Accessories and support equipment
— Classified and unclassified software and software support
— Publications, manuals, and technical documentation
— Precision measurement, calibration, lab equipment, and technical support services
— Studies and surveys
— Other related elements of aircraft maintenance and program support.

The proposed sale does not include any new capabilities, weapons, or munitions.
The estimated total cost is $450 million.

This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security objectives of the United States by allowing Pakistan to retain interoperability with U.S. and partner forces in ongoing counterterrorism efforts and in preparation for future contingency operations.
The proposed sale will continue the sustainment of Pakistan’s F-16 fleet, which greatly improves Pakistan’s ability to support counterterrorism operations through its robust air-to-ground capability. Pakistan will have no difficulty absorbing these articles and services into its armed forces.

The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region.

The principal contractor will be Lockheed Martin Corporation, Fort Worth, TX. There are no known offsets proposed in conjunction with this sale.

Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor representatives to Pakistan.

There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.
This notice of a potential sale is required by law. The description and dollar value is for the highest estimated quantity and dollar value based on initial requirements. Actual dollar value will be lower depending on final requirements, budget authority, and signed sales agreement(s), if and when concluded.

TTP waley tu hamarey hi log hein ...FATA kay

 

[nahtanbob]

Sovereignty: 0

F-16: 1

Ontopic: US wouldn't give any equipment to Pakistan. They want to strengthen India make them as scapegoat to tackle China, Pakistan won't be getting anything, IMO

Did UAE get F-35 after recognizing Israel? Just asking.

why does UAE need F-35s ? to hit camels

 

[Sifar zero]

TTP waley tu hamarey hi log hein ...FATA kay

No,the majority of TTP fighters are Afghans but the mid tier and high command are mostly made up of Pakistanis.
