well MKIs are not for pakistan for pakistan Jaguars andf Mig21s and M2ks & Mig29s are more than enough cause depth of pakistan is not that we require long range rafale or MKIs for there neither do we need any air craft acrriers for blocking either gawadar or karachi portYou suggested it that all your aircraft are available to fight an air war with PAF.
Here is a reasonable outlook..
IAF can not deploy all her MKI's on the West. these aircraft are also required to counter China. Realistically what can be fielded shall be discussed.
1) Mig 21's
2) JAGs
3) M2K's
4) 50 MKIs incase Mig 29's are unavailable.
Mig 21 is an intercepter and good for point defence hence will not play any thing other then defencive role other than to counter PAF attacks.
JAGs' and M2K's will be used to attack under the cover of MKI or Mig 29's.
Most of the attacks will not be carried by flying directly over land in case of south region rather will be done over the sea using jags and mig 29s. This is the reason Mirage 3 /5 will be at par with the attacking aircraft along with JF-17's.
The attacks on the north will be focussed on mirages and Mig 29's also defending mig21's. This is where F-7's and F-7pg along with JF-17 and F-16 are adequate to counter any attack.
You have to understand that air war will be supported by SAMs so it is not that easy.
Now you add all these IAF aircraft and see what you get...
You know well PAF is more or less trying to protect her airspace in that they have designed themselves.
and as per your dream squences even if some how 50 mig 29s dont come still there will 13 there for dfensive role and Jaguars darin3 upgrades which are done are getting IRST VWR and I Derby ER BVR missile with AL 2052 AESA radar (yes jaguar is going to be the first indian fighter to sport a israeli AESA radar)
do you know how many air bases you have and what is there distance from indian border and distance from indian missile sites and how much time it takes for a mach 2.3 bhramos with range of 450km(real range in beleived to be 500 km ) to reach any target in pakistan and what defences you have against it ?
we are prepairng for a two front war for last 50 years and all our preparations are on those lines so do not think we are a bit worried worry about yourself cause 18 Blk 52 and 42 blk40 F16s and some 70 JF17s and some 150 combined F7 & Mirages cannot fight of 54 upgraded M2Ks + 63 upgraded Mig29s + 126 Bisons +126s Jagiars and some 40 Mig 27s in reserve force thenthere will be Tejas also for homeland security
which means all of the MKIs and rafales and possibally even FGFAs might go to defend china theater i say thats fair enough fight
