for our awaam the accountability always begins elsewhere, they are never at wrong, they will scream with pitchforks about x or y doing this or that and then when you ask for how much tax they paid they lose it

because the z-10 in its original form was a very, very poor helicopter

does our awaam have comprehension issues? The f-16 is a perfectly capable fighter for our threat environment, on top of that, SLEP'ed airframes, like the jordanian ones, even though used will likely outlive brand new jf-17 airframes, all while being 1/3rd or 1/2 the cost.

there is alot more in the works wrt armored vehicles in the army theyre all mlu...

Jordan only has c7s unfortunately which will go with their F-16V. If we buy from another operator such as the euros im sure we will get their wpns stocks with them too unlikely they are all SLEPd and also MLU'ed, it was ADFs that were not BVR but we bought the ADFs, rest are just like ours...

Different budgets different roles, JF-17 Block 4 is already on the cards, block 3 is already receiving new gear, these F-16s will support our current fleet and also bolster fleet strength, there is no real downside to this buy, we will likely get a nice LoC as the article mentions the key focus...

20-30 years, they were recently MLUed and Structurally upgraded, a VERY good deal if we can get them, im seriously guessing theyd be around the $20m each mark

not particularly, however this is well known news

im not sure if youre being purposefully dense, but the F-16s will not replace J-10s, but will rather SUPPORT our current fleet of F-16s as it ages, alongside that, it will also enable retirement of more mirages and f-7s quicker.

according to who.

its more intelligent to spend 2-5x more and train more new crews, add new infrastructure etc over inducting a tried and tested, well respected and capable platform that will be absorbed with ease?

their geographic location has zero relevance, on top of that, any f-16 buy will make zero difference politically, its a balancing act which is needed and will have no additional political impact, if us was to sanction us, the f-16s are gone anyway, if anything, we pick up more spares and weapons...

yes, very stupid, a used f-16 mlu will cost less than $27m, a j-10c will cost about 3-4x that...

a request was made, confirmation is something i dont know

its likely itll get revived, with some serious legwork, rishi has to put in alot of effort for a recovery, the tory party is hanging by a thread and it is him who will need to save their rep, anything to win political points, FTAs, growth etc

i guess if you look at the Z-10ME2's defensive kit, its very much offensively positioned IMO, seemingly being designed to operate in heavily defended airspaces, just looking at the photos of it the amount of radar arrays on it is surprising, no other helicopter out there has such an amount of...

lol rishi is bound to fail, during his original run for PM he stupidly made comments which destroyed his image, including talking about how he cut funding from deprived areas and funnelled it into some of the richest areas in the country so that they get the "funding they deserve", on top of...

im pretty certian PA will have suggested improvements and these are those improvements. Top attack protection is nice, wish there was an extra round or two

yes saar all problems must be as a result of bajwa, bajwa controls the world and kenya is subservient to him therefore cover up
