Unfortunately PAF leaders have short sightedness wen required to think out of box solutions to the future demands and pak foreign policy related matters.Hi,
If the Paf goes for these aircraft---then it is not sending out some serious message to the U S---.
Secondly---Obama and prior---there would be no electronic sanctions on the F16 during a war with India---.
But with Trump in power---it WILL happen---. He wil authorize electronic sanctions---where these aircraft may not operate under full authority of the operator---.
Paf should have taken the J10 B / C route years ago and would have been well settled into the new aircraft---.
No doubt J10C with AESA radar 9 HP IFR and trusted support and supply options can definitely overcome the retirement of upcoming 3 gen large number of F7s and mirage with a huge qualitative boost.
JF17 can shrink the gap with J10C but still the value of J10C will be more than blk52 which JF17 can not cover
Especially wen no other option is available in terms of SU35 or Rafael or new 16s due political and financial reasons
