Whether they'll track them in the name of their safety or just keep an eye the bottom line is they'll know where their planes are. And keeping in mind how the things are unfolding these days we'll be needing them against IAF most certainly and the entire world knows India is more closer to...

Yes you are right they were siding us but where never ready to enter the battle field in contrast to USSR. The carrier fleet they sent was too late and by that time defeat was certain, until then they were only trying to push others in for them(Iran for example). Unfortunately during that time...

Never has and probably never would, I never said that. My statement was about Russia and China and how they care about India and Pakistan respectively. Please read the bold part below. They do. China even dared to threaten USA for Pakistan and during all Indo-Pak wars Soviet Union/Russian has...

We haven't heard such a thing about Russia yet would be right. Fighter being tracked is quiet worrying as well? They do. China even dared to threaten USA for Pakistan and during all Indo-Pak wars Soviet Union/Russian has helped and stood for India and is still more close to India then...

I hate to say that but one cannot deny the fact that USA might have placed devices through which they can/are monitor/ing our F-16. However we can say the same about Russian jets as well. The only answer to the problem you are stating is that we develop our own fighters, luckily we have JFT...

Not confirmed but since recently US delivered 2 F-16 from the 14 that were built for PAF, but kept in storage due to embargo, there are chances we might get the remaining 12 as well because we have paid for them already. Probably they are old block 15. As far as upgrade is concerned I am not...

Well I would say that is your opinion and it is based on just one event because as far as I have read and heard what happened during Kargil was a result of unavailability of spares which lead to PAF using F-16s in defensive ops, rather than incapability of F-16s. If we wouldn't have been under...

Which Block of JFT was used 1 or 2?

Well as far as I know this visit has nothing to do with accusations of F-16 but one cannot say anything about this keeping in mind the secrecy PAF maintains. However what I would like to see is that air chief should talk about the deliveries of the remaining F-16 and an AESA upgrade (or F-16V in...

So we are still getting those embargoed planes.....Do you have any idea how many more are left? Are they any good, I mean configuration MLU or ADF?

A friend of mine told me and its also written on wikipedia that PAF recently got 2 embargoed F-16. Is this true?

This is nothing to do with PAF. The true motive of this is to force Indian Government to release more funds. On the other hand I think Make in India policy is a good thing. All the big powers in the world use their own military equipment rather than opting out for the best thing available...

OK 4 will be built in Pakistan and rest transferred from China, that's good but will they be able to launch cruise missiles? And does anyone have an update on naval variant of Babur?

What about J-10?

Intentionally or unintentionally Russians are doing what Israel wants. In-order to eliminate ISIS they'll destroy Syria and leave it in a state that Israel would easily takeover Syria. Unless Russia has the guts to stay in Syria and face Israeli forces in future then we might be looking at the...

Does anyone know what aircrafts were representing PLAAF?

Good choice by BAF. It looks like they are planning to get a potent 4th gen platform in future. If thats the case then Russian jets would be the ideal option.

PAF going for JF-17, this is because JF-17 is tailor made for PAF's need plus the price tag it carries is ideal for PAF as it allows PAF to induct a 4th generation fighter in half the price. As far as F-16 is concerned hands down it is the bench mark against which every jet in the world is...

Israel all the way USA has always ensured that Israel maintains technological superiority over its neighbors. On the other hand the experience Israel has is something that cannot be matched by any of the other airforces. Saudi Air Force is good they have the weapons Eurofighter, F-15 and...

keep in as much secrecy as you want. Whenever the news break I would lov to hear that it has an AESA, Helmet screen, more powerful powerplant and further advance avionics.
