Pakistan F-16 Discussions 2

Sniper XR pod is mounted on the right of the inlet
and LITENING pod on the left.
Interesting that they are using both the pods at the same time.

That is AN/AAQ-13 LANTIRN navigation pod with SNIPER targeting POD.
Commonly it is used with LANTIRN AN/AAQ-14 targeting pod and the combo is called Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night, or LANTIRN Targeting System, but nowdays its used with SNIPER pod as well.
 
Sir ji that 35 year old jet is still one of the world's best fighter jet..


No doubt this is one of the most successful fighter jet used in most number of air forces around world and kept on evolving for so many decades
 
F 35 is very similar like F 104 short wing bigger fuselage so not too much lift in wings .the critic called it FÄT Turkey .there is No chance that this plane is a good dog fighter .Rest the arguments about there will be no dogfights every thing will be dealt by BVR missles is old since Veitnam era F 4 phantums R big examples without guns then what happened with them is history .

No doubt this is one of the most successful fighter jet used in most number of air forces around world and kept on evolving for so many decades
U will see all great planes R sleeks and beautiful by design and look.
 
this is not an excuse to stay behind the world 35 years .


whom dogfight these days boss?its elecrital warfare and BVR era

Sir Ji, when countries like India and Pakistan share common border with very little flying time, you can be sure, there will always be dogfights besides there must be a reason why all these companies are competing to build and field the most manoeuvrable fighter and the need to test them against each other.
 
Just some nice pics
