Now and never situation for PAKISTAN AIR FORCE

[Fighter jets world]

Pakistan Air Force (PAF) was founded on August 14, 1947. PAF played the main role in the country’s defense. During its 70 yearlong existence was PAF involved in four wars with: India and Soviet-Afghan war where PAF played a significant role.

In last 70 years were PAF pilots privileged to fly US fighter jets like F-86 Sabre and F-104 Starfighter, Chinese fighter jets like A-5, F-6, FT-2 or FT-5, and UK fighter jets like Hawker Tempest II, Supermarine Spitfire Mk VIII, Hawker Sea Fury and Supermarine Attacker F Mk.1.

Currently is PAF flying fighter jets like American F-16, Pakistani JF-17 Thunder, Chinese F-7PG and French Mirage III and Mirage V.


Indian Air Force (IAF) as the biggest rival of Pakistan Air Force always had numerical superiority over PAF. In 1965’s war PAF had a technological advantage over IAF which helped PAF to counter Indian Air Force numerical superiority but if we see today the table is totally turned. Today IAF not only have numerical superiority but they also have technological advantage over PAF.

Currently IAF is flying fighter jets like Russian Su-30 MKI, MiG-29, MiG-27 and MiG-21, French Mirage 2000, Indian HAL Tejas and UK Sepecat Jaguar.



Indian Air Force is also at the beginning of modernization. Last year IAF placed an order for 36 French Dassault Rafale jets, one of greatest 4th generation multirole fighter aircraft. Apart from that IAF is in negotiation with SAAB for Gripen E fighter jets and Lockheed Martin for F-16 Block 70 to fulfill its single engine multi-role fighter needs. To fulfill India Navy Aircraft carrier jets needs IAF is also in talk with Boeing for F/A-18 Super Hornet jets. Indian Air Force is also in starting phase of developing its own next generation fighter aircraft. IAF have started its Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) and Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) programs.



So for PAF it’s now and never situation. Now it’s time for PAF think tank to take actions for modernization of PAF with 4th and 5th generation fighter jets. On urgent basis PAF should look forward to acquire a 4th generation air superiority fighter jets as soon as possible. Otherwise PAF would be left in the race. Best options for PAF are Russian Su-35. PAF can also go for European fighter jets like Eurofighter Typhoon or French Dassault Rafale but they are way too expensive and Pakistan is under developing countries . Pakistan can’t afford them

Last time they crossed our borders with their "technological superior" aircraft they were shot down. They are welcome to try it again.

Time is changed now they have better Air Defence system better fighter jets then us
If we want to win a war against us we should have strong Airforce just like Isreal
We have to strike first and strike and strategic locations
we have to protect our sky plus dominate in enemy sky
that is only possible with Air superiority fighter jets 4+ generation

Don't worry, PA keeps an eye on the enemy and will always match and exceed what they have to offer.

Sorry sir but i want to disagree
Pakistan don't have stable economy , PAF didn't have budget to buy european fighter jets like RAaFLE , eurofighter
But PAF can buy cheap Russian SU35 ! We should rise of voice and make our government to fund paf to make an SU35 deal ASAP because its now and never situation
in next 3 year indian will have 36 rafale they will be making f16 and f18 at home , they currently have 250+ su30

Are you a sales rep for the SU35 or are you after the bribes?

You seem to be old enough to remember everything from the beginning. So when was it that the IAF crossed the borders and were shot down? Aircraft from both sides were shot down in 65 and in 71; are you claiming that only side suffered losses?

Tried too many times, failed the second time onwards.

Kargil we shot down 2 aircraft and 3 helis I believe. That's the last time you dared to venture into Pakistani territory.

Any facts, or is this part of our fact-free diet?

It might help if Pakistan allowed its Air Force to keep an eye on opposing air forces, rather than the PA doing it all on its own for everybody and everything.

If you are too young to remember then get off your butt and do some research. Plenty of info in pdf and in Google.

In short, don't argue. Don't forget that even if they fly paper planes, the PAF (or the PA, according to this acronym challenged expert) will beat anybody or anything that opposes it. From the anopheles mosquito to the Su30 MKI.

Next, you'll be denying that Pakistan won both in 65 and in 71, and it was only the pleas of the frightened Indian government that moved foreign powers to force Pakistan to surrender her gains. No telling what rot you'll come out with next :-(

All of that says something different, so I was wondering if I could borrow your copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales.

Right!!

So currently PAF is matching and exceeding IAF SU-30 Super MKI and Rafael with what exactly......70 mixed bag of F-16's and around 100 F-16 wannabe JF-17's?

Hmmm.....now I can sleep with ease.

Try looking into the weapons systems and command control systems.

I did and now I am even more concerned. The value adding platforms and force multipliers that IAF has is at another level altogether.

Please provide the evidence. Are you saying PAF planners don't know what they are doing?

OK you are welcome to try your technological superior planes against our paper planes, if that keeps you happy. But just a gentle reminder, we have the best pilots, best missiles and best engineers, inshallah the best victory you will see.
