:: Why hasn't any US Military Contractors responded to Indian claims ::

[Trailer23]

There has been a lot of debate on India shooting down one of our F-16's.

Various India Media have been trying to put 2 & 2 together and get the result 5, but reality is the obvious.

No PAF F-16 has been shot down and are all accounted for in their respective Squadrons.

My question is simple as to why none of the US Military Contractors that are affiliated with the F-16 Project have spoken up in regard to bad publicity in regard to their prized equipment.

All signs shown on the Media, are that of a Russian-built MiG.

US Companies that should be affected by bad publicity are: General Dynamics/Lockheed Martin, General Electric, Pratt & Whitney and Raytheon.

I also would like to point out two other nations who's names have clearly been brought up...

Jordan: For the Serial Number shown as one of their (former F-16).​

Taiwan: For the Serial Number of their AMRAAM​

India is a US ally. A counter ally against China. I don't think the US will embarrass an ally they need to use against China. Also remember that US company Lockheed is pitching F-16 to India. There is a lot at play.

It's all about money and business . U.S.A is old Pakistan ally but relation effected after they found Osama bin ladin after 10 years war in Afghanistan.

China containment is a big factor. Pak US relations don't matter in this instance.

Let me assure you that much US policy vis a vis India is shaped with China containment in mind.

Against Russia it matters.

 

[Windjammer]

Sacking of the IAF's Western Command AOC is sufficient to prove the actual ground reality.
If there was any substance to the Indian claims, they would be acting all frivolous rather than licking their wounds.

This.

Americans F16s are probably the most useless piece of equipment in our inventory considering we have to report Americans even if someone farts near that plane. If we had used an F16 then MR Douche TRUMPET would have already been barking sanctions at us by now.
If americans have ever done us any good then it is by blocking our F16 and helicopter sales. This will help us focus on stealth platforms probably with some level of local manufacturing if not all of it.

Very good if true...as a punishment they should be made to fly 1000 hrs at least in this vintage jets and meet the same fate as the 150+ (some where i saw the number 170 as well) IAF pilots who were killed in the last few decades flying this junk...even in full fledged war IAF wont loose this much pilots....the shame is not the enemy shot us down the real shame is we ourselves have killed so many of our pilots...even if he had actually shot down an enemy jet with this junk...is it something to be proud off ? money has never been an issue with India...so the only explanation is the powers that run this country dont care for the armed forces...that is the reality.

 

[Trailer23]

Its news clips like this that piss me off. We ALL know that none of our F-16's crashed and it would be ludacris to send 'em Behind Enemy Lines.

Now Michael Kugelman may be an expert on South Asia Affairs, but he's not a expert on Military Hardware. Getting his opinion when he doesn't even know the facts is pointless.

Now why would Indians want to buy a fighter jet that was taken down by a mig21. Indians should get more mig21's because clearly its a superior jet compared to F-16.

NO, we became a country for hire a long time ago for the US and till today US doesnt think of Pakistan in any other terms other than military ties of convenience.

Well, The Hard lesson is : Economy is EVERYTHING.
Its Time to Make a "Real" peace with India by abandoning JeM and LeTs before its too late.

If Nk and SK can come together, why cant India and Pakistan ?

Even China has issue with India, we built Nukes for China YET, our Borders are calm.
Why cant India and Pakistan be the same ?

One of the reasons might be that Indians never take responsibility for their actions, yet Pakistan to accept Indian superiority. This is never going to happen, yes economy of Pakistan is down in the gutter mostly thanks to our politicians and Indian financed campaign of terrorism for past 15 years. Dont claim to be a saint, when youre country isnt.
