babu I pray to god you are correct
F-16s wont take any thing other than American missiles
and I am not aware if American missiles can be integrated into JF-17s.
but sadly its not true, other options( Chinese clones) dont integrate with F-16s and sacrificing F-16 missiles is borderline lunacy because you are willing to downgrade the F-16 potency on a presumed assumption that our cobras might be able to fire them if opportunities present themselves. Mastan's scenario looks very promising (gunships being able to ambush jets) but there are two issues here, limited number of missiles (for PAF weapon pool) and lack of clarity about our cobra's ability to fire them
PAF have few variants of AIM-9 as they are using it since 80s, that missile is carried by F-16, F-7 and possibly M-3/5s but PAF also had french WVR missiles deployed with M-3/5s while Brazilian WVR & ARM missiles were purchased which can be used on all birds except F-16s also JFT have PL-5Es but they can carry all WVR missiles which PAF have.
