Few interesting things from the AFM article.
In that section called "Exciting F-16 Times", it mentions that "the PAF's existing fleet of Peace Gate I/II block 25s will undergo a Falcon Up mid-life upgrade in 2011". I'm wondering if that's a typo, because I've read in numerous places that we had Block 15s, not 25s.
Secondly, it mentions that we're sending up to 8 F-16 A/Bs to Red Flag(which starts tomorrow btw). Would we not be at a handicap against more modern aircraft over there?[/QUOTE]
hopefully not - please note that PAF has been preparing for Red Flag for the last 6 months within pakistan - the pilots have to achieve certain parameters before they can participate in this excercise. its not like the PAF pilots are being thrown 'to the wolves' to fend for themselves.
