Hi, last I heard maruts could not get a engine..

And the efforts of Kurt were allowed to go waste..

Even the LCA will have US engine. The point is irrelevant as ToT is in the pipeline for the same. Nothing is indigenous in this new world ... M1A2 the main battle tank of US has a Rhinemetal gun ...

But your countrymen believe otherwise.

1960's era stuff that US had no better place to "dump". So they decided to "bestow" it upon us, and We will keep it as our "crown jewels".

Hi,

Thank you very much for your brilliant post----. Please feel right at home as you will indeed meet a few who think the same.

There will be some indian members who would want to pick your brains ( if you have any ) to see which 60's era stuff that you are talking about---so that they may have to requisition some older stuff from Russia to counter it.

That was 80's, since then a lot of water has passed under the bridge and our minimum requirement has increased too.

18 Blk 52 if bought would take PAF to the actual required number 100 F-16's. Remember in the 80's that was the actual number that was required.

Most of the 60's era stuff that they have dumped on us was actually introduced at least after 70. And if you are treating F-16s as something that wasn't able find a dumping ground then my friend only God can help you. Don't worry you aren't alone who faces such a problem I recent found one that claimed AH-1Z was an outdated helicopter.

The US has handed over to Pakistan 14 combat aircraft, 59 military trainer jets and 374 armoured personnel carriers, which were earlier used by American forces in Afghanistan and Iraq.

No it wont, the article talks about the 14 F-16 we already got back during 2006-2008/9.

Its a very good news for PD, first Cobras, hell fire, etc & now this deal. It is indeed a very good news for PD. PD should had tried for Block 60.

Pakistan has been arming itself silently....huh. Who knew! What else do we have that is not disclosed?!

Silence is Golden

i Still don't get it. Are we having more F-16 from extra defense articles or the Jordanian and 2008 shipment of 14 F-16 are mentioned here. The statement shows the F-16 used in Afghanistan are being transferred as EDA, this makes total of current fleet 76+14=90. Can any body clarify that again, as i cannot go through all pages again.
