PAF Long Range Capabilities

[Saquib]

Just a thought - If Israel Air Force bombs Iran's nuclear sites. If some how Pakistan gets involved in striking Israel Negev Nuclear Facility?

Does PAF train for long range bombing/strike targets and does it have experience in long range bombing with current aircraft. Can PAF come with a plan using its current fleet of aircrafts.

!st think 1st - > Uncle SAM jets is only for Patrolling in Pakistan Airspace.
> You can't leave your airspace unless you are asked to or you take permission from them.

Well.. yes and no..

You may need permission to do so if you wish to continue recieving spares and support for them when you run out.. but you dont need permission to actually fly them out there and attack beyond your borders.

However, Uncle sam will have no qualms about letting an adversary such as the IASF know everything they need to know in the electronic spectrum to make something like the Block-52 as good as Mig-21 in terms of a threat against the IASF.

There are however, plans by the PAF sitting on shelves and other places to hit Israel..
they do not involve the F-16..and they do not account for success or the possibility of any of the strike force surviving.

But they do exist.

Yea, once there is an emergency and the PAF responds to it with all it's due means, then by all means inform Uncle Sam of PAF's cheating habits.

A one way tour.... on mirages if I remember.
And there are people who have volunteered for it already.

May be paf can use refuelers,.. BTW how many refueler paf operates curently ???
And are paf refueler capable of refueling fighters at 2000+ km distance ??

Actually, Uncle SAM has much stringent Rules for Foreign Arm trade control than Europe. Frequent Visit and routine check up of all your purchase to check, if there any manipulation in codes or seals. Pakistan is huge recipient of US weapon system ,also most of them are in the name on WOT. Do you think they are sitting tight ? From Mission Computer to Highly encrypted of Radio channels in F16 or any other Weapon are in American line of sight .This is One of The reason, why India never Signed any CISOMA FISMA etc and wanted to puts its own equipment on board.

RAF'S Dam buster missions in the WW2 were all one way missions and crew knew that.

Why should PAF go and strike Israel ? I mean why on earth show such bankruptcy of thought ?

Those check ups are all fine and well, but they pertain more to making sure tech is not stolen..
They have NOTHING to do with how these systems will be used.

Military planners plan for all sorts if eventualities.
Hint: USA has detailed plans of attacking mecca and medina,that doesnt mean they are going to do it any time soon or in the distant future.

 

[Storm Force]

Is that a serious QUESTION.

Attacking the israeli nuclear instalation.

WHY WOULD PAF want to attack Israeli nuclear plants. WHAT could you achieve.???

Plans exist.. Almost implemented in the late 90's. If Israel would have hit our nuclear installations.
