You guys are counting your chickens too early fellas. There has not been a single peep about selling new planes or upgrading existing ones.

As per wiki we have 85 f 16 (66 a/b 19 c/d)

O think someone needs to fix thw list on wiki other fighters nunber mentioned there seems to be wrong
Total history of F-16 inventory ...

B/W 1983 - 1987
28 Block-15A
12 Block-15B Dual Seat
40 out of which we lost 8 in attrition

B/W 2006 - 2009
2 Block-15A OCU EDA
12 Block-15B OCU EDA (2 perhaps came later in around 2014)
14 out of we lost 1 in attrition

B/W 2010 - 2015
12 Block-52C
6 Block-52D
18

So, we got 85 birds in all and lost 9 in attrition.

76 = Current Fleet

24+20 = 44

24 New Blk72 + 20 used (approval 80% done) upgraded to Blk72 = 44

76+ 44 = 120
all with APG-83 upgraded to Blk72 IA

:pakistan:

I am not suppose to tell you that as why I got the right impression in numbers above. Allow me to add that someone had the impression as US discontinued PAF Viper Riders training but there were boys in New Mexico last Ramzan.

Is the AIM 9X along with AIM 120D a part of the deal that is going to be signed?

You wou6 have to time it properly

Like people went crazy when it was announced that we might get su 35
I wonder if I open a thread on Pakistan buying the S500 from Russia if I can get 79 pages out it?

Looks like the PAF has taken 02-26 way more too seriously than the other folks could have anticipated in their wildest imagination!!! Couple it with the Egyptian mirages, JF17 Blk3s, JF17Bs etc., and it’s almost like garnering around 200 additional birds!!! And, that too from what the PAF has already 02-27 level proficiency with!!! It’ll be like 300 AESA equipped birds flying around with a mindset of “there’s no tomorrow”!!! I have to thank Modi!!! And, his 2nd term has only started.....

Cry IAF cry....

Run IAF pilots run....
