FEW FACTS.
Pakistan has inducted 80 Thunders in tens years between 2009-2017 = 10 planes per year
PAF today has 250 F7/MIRAGES to replace ... in my maths you will not induct 60 JF17 a year.
Utter rubbish. So PAF will still have 200 obsolete F7/MIRAGES in 2020
NOW INDIA
There only 125 mig21 in india inn a force of 600 planes
They are being replaced by these
View attachment 401496
I cant make this any more IN YOUR FACE guaranteed that 123 Tejas are being built in 3 assembly plants between 2017 & 2027
Boy i am damn sick of replying to Indian trolls posting without any research titling there posts FACTS and beocming a source for more immature indian trools to refer to
Ok here is one more.
First production capacity of JF17 thunder is currents 16 per year. First locally manufactured JF17s were acquired in 2009 when just 4 jests were made.
Next year the number rose to Around 10 in 2010. and It rose to 16 jets per year in 2016 gradually. As of 2016 PAF had 86 JF17s(total 88 out of which 2 were lost to crashes) and production of 100 JF17s will be complete in 2017.
Annual Production is planned to increase to 25 jets per year.
Pakistan have around 70 to 80 of Each mirage 3 and 5 around 150 to 160 of those mirages. and 195 F7s
Mirage 5 is attack variant which will be replaced by JF17s completely
Mirage 3 is a Multirole aircraft which will also be replaced by JF17
150 JF17s will replace Mirages
While F7 is an interceptor. Having older F7s and F7p variants.
Older 120 F7s will be replaced with JF17s while
60 to 70 F7PGs are relitively newer variants acquired post 2001 with newer airframes they will be operational and will be replaced in due times.
that makes JF17 procurement numer to 230 by 2022 2023 which coincides with 25 jets per year production capacity of PAC Kamra from 2017 and 2018 onwards.
Unlike India PAF dont brag and disclose every little bit instead you have to combine a lots of pieces to get the complete picture of PAF Plans.
As PAC Kamra is recruiting massive number of new Engineers and Technicians for JF17 Production facility(Even mentioned in there Advertisement) every Paksitani Knows. which indicates production capacity is increasing from this year as claimed by PAF to 25 per year from 16 previously.
Read it again and dont write bull crap again about JF17 Program and replacement plans of PAF Please.
Now coming to Indian Airforce have 245 migs majority of whom are due to be retired from 2018 and still no order of Tejas is placed let alone production. All indian media is touting IAF will replace Mig21s with MK1 Tejas.And Its developement isnt even complete yet.
Plus the 240 Odd 3rd Generation Jaguar and Mig27 are also sitting in your hangers with no foreseeable replacement. in that numbers. only 36 Rafaels are ordered with no FGFA in sight.
Now go take a shower and Chant Jay Hind.
On Ground Reality Only thing Paksitan have to work on is Replacement of F16s. Rest is great.
