Hi. haven't signed in here since ages! gotta post some excerpts from somethin' I've been reading Pakistan Viper Kills ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Viper Pilot with 6,000+ hours! Daddies hit it off...

Couldn't reply earlier, my laptop temporarily died. Can't tell if you are really asking or tricking me! Let me assume u are asking. It's not up to me and doesn't matter what I like but yeah I'm impressed by French equipment. In case of a hypothetical scenario, where PAF is going to select...

French will sell only if you got guts to buy.

Maybe they get bored! my siblings also get bored time to time by their red hair and want to change them. Good to see u back Doc.

AESA wud be a superb booster for F-16 that we both agree upon, but paying a billion from own pocket for 'em doesn't sound good. I'm all for SABR but if I got only enough cash to invest on one platform, I will not put my eggs in U.S basket. I'm not obsessed with french equipment and personally...

Don't you think it's safer to spend a billion dollars buying French avionics/weopanry for JF-17 than buying 70-odd AESAs for F-16s? Though I wouldn't mind if we somehow get U.S to pay atleast half of it 8-)

Nailed it!

@jamahir sorry for not replying. Have been super busy lately plus my isp let's say ditched me. Now using celular connection but that too is killing me. Let's call it '3rd world premium package.' My speed barely goes upto 100-200Kbps. Hoping every one is doing great. Will return when possible.

Yeah and you will be facing similar threat on the western border in coming days You will be buying MICA from MBDA, why is Dassault charging that much? Like F-16 were upgraded by LM but Raytheon provided missiles and 500 AMRAAMs cost around $250 million. It's available u can search if it's...

Don't put your words in my mouth. I called IRST crappy not the ARCHER. If I wanted to, could've written two crappies! Come on. you know it cant hit a target when fired from 40km away. Didn't reckon u are kinda guy to believe paper specs. Let's talk money. We paid $650 million for a ton of...

MiG had (rather crappy)IRST and AA-11 Archer even prior to upgrade. So what's the point of flaunting 'em now! Just cuz India paid more than enough for Mirage-2000 upgrade, doesn't make 'em 5th gen fighters. They are still 4th gen fighter and can be countered. Yes I know and so does the PAF...

They upgraded and so did we, so no worries.

Both aren't the cutting edge of IAF and if PAF is ready for the cutting edge (Flanker) then these two can be dealt with by default and mind you, without underestimating them! IAF will not be using M2K as 1st line aerial fighter anyway in the conflict. About Fulcrum, during the Kargil Conflict...

It was ok No, college pants.

@jamahir thanks for the tag and the song, but I'm of no use in this thread. I haven't even wore pants recently other than uniform

Could be, but I remember media also reporting H&K rifle after the incident plus Source( History of War Magazine) is credible too. Still, I can't say for sure! Even current record holder isn't on the list. You can find on youtube re-enactment of Chuck Mawhinney and Carlos hathcock's encounters...

My favorite plus Ae Dil-e-Nadaan :man_in_love: A mis-understandng!

Good news! Sadly a confirmation too that NO AESA should be expected.
