Pak Amraams can be made ineffective: US assured Manohar Parrikar

Is it not possible that the US learnt its lesson from IRAN episode and hence started installing kill codes in all its weapons systems sold outside of the US?

Pakistan Buying peanuts compare to KSA, UAE, AUS, EGYPT.
So it means during Global conflict the Arms bought from US are as good as JackASs without an ***?
Its just a Baby Nipple (چوسنی) given to Indians to make them calm.

When did Pakistan received F-16 from USA? answer 1980
time of Iranian revolution? answer 1979

Who upgraded Pakistani F-16?

PAF F-16 Modernization
As the result of the tender opened by Pakistan Air Force regarding the modernization of 41 F-16 Aircraft, Turkish Aerospace has been selected as the contractor.

The contract has been signed on 29 June 2009.

The modernization activities started in the last quarter of 2010 by receiving first 3 F-16 to Turkish Aerospace's facilities

Do you think countries buy weapons with Kill switches? If USA was reluctant to sell F-16s Pakistan always had option of France and China.

My friend, you need to take a deep breath and think logically. Earlier models of F-16's were procured in the past but were still upgraded with US developed CODE; what if there are kill commands/sequences in the upgrades/updated code? And AIM-120C-5 were all procured in 2005 and delivered probably after 2010. What if these missiles have kill codes?

Let's go a step further and create a conspiracy beyond 'Kill' code.......how about a built-in IFF system which identifies all US built systems as Friends by default? In this event all the US has to do is provide India with something that identifies their Jets as Friendly to all F-16's and problem solved.

Whatever it is, I don't trust the Americans.

Then what an alternative?

Then what an alternative?

French, retrospectively even if Mirage 2000 or Rafale; or even J-10.

Sooooo the IAF would have to install that "IFF transponder" on their Russian kits (Su-30 etc) so that our AIM's wouldn't be able to target them. Except that the Russian's wont even remotely allow that.

Anything western has many parts from the same contractor so you can't depend on "western" tech if you are are so inclined towards the kill switch theory.
