Even if the assistance is to sustain the fleet, it is not a bad proposal.
It is a capable aircraft and ensuring that it remains in service would be a big help to PAF. Without this assistance, the serviceability would have gone down and resulted in lower availability. F-16 would still remain backbone of PAF considering it’s large numbers and multirole capabilities.

What Pakistan sold to get this deal remains a mystery.

Indian govt has been reassured that those old aircrafts do not pose any threat to the Rafales.

LM has asked India to go for 114 MRCA fighters from the US in a G2G deal.

When India does not oblige, Pakistan will be offered the same F-21s.

Indians are now in a big trouble.

I have fixed the above for you. And if you have been living under a rock all this time, please educate yourself on the issue which is no longer a mystery.

This is all a guess. Hearsay.
Everyone is claiming to know what transpired without bringing out the facts.

Was it allowing drones to use Pakistan’s airspace or something else?
The rock under which I stay, these details aren’t available.

This is all a guess work

You can choose to live in your own reality. In the real world its no longer a guess or heresay.

USA will never ever favour Pakistan over India. India is the new ally for the USA and West. Message to the Mir Jaffers - "Get over it"

$450 million for a sustainment package is hardly generous

Considering economic state in these parts of the world this is not a small sum either.
US being US can’t do this due to change of heart. There is more to this then what meets the eye. They must have got something that they wanted.
Is that bad? I don’t think so. That’s the craft used in deals like these all the time.
Only question is - was it worth? This must be known to only those who are privy to the deal.

Still, Mir Bajwa would keep on licking boots of US, which is his sole expertise.

@SIPRA you are really cheesed off with your Sipah salar? Most of your comments on him are quite dhamaakedaar.

These hef sixtheen are a nuisance. With J10 becoming operational I hope the dependencies on the obsolete fleet dies off to being placed on roundabouts.

The current gen F-16s have shotdown 2 Indian SU-30s.

The new gen F-16 will wipe out the entire Indian airforce fleet.

J-10 are not as capable as the F-16s.
