@ZamsaHassan
This F-16s V/s Su-30MKI question is one of the most common questions asked on PDF.
The thread got closed so answering your question here. hopefully i'll learn something too.
Here's what i've learned so far.
Superior weaponry matters but superior strategies win wars.
Nothing to do with Passion.
In BVR combat , the one who sees first, returns back to the base.
Su-30MKI with more than 6 BVRs will have a huge RCS. Almost 20m2.
on the other hand our F-16s (with 4 BVRs and 2 WVRs) will have a max 8m2 RCS.
For 20m2, APG-68(V)9 detection range is 149km.
Hence the F-16 will detect SU-30MKI at 149km.
For 8.5m2, N-011M BARS detection range is 160km.
Hence the SU-30MKI will detect the F-16 at 160km.
In terms of detection, SU-30MKI has a clear edge over the F-16.
But,
Given the fact that the F-16s are combat proven, have superior BVRs and Electronic warfare/countermeasures package and because PAF has huge experience with them, i'd bet my money on the eff solah.
