During the meeting, both the dignitaries discussed matters of professional and mutual interest.

If you go to PAF Faisal, you will see a junked Mi-24 hind, in the far backyard. I have it in the gallery. Check it out. PA operated them for sometime, but lack of spares leaded them to be unoperatable.

I think the MI24 at Faisal is located at the museum

I don't know if these even constitute news. Air force chief meets loads of people in the same chair and talks are held about generic matters.

He even sits the same way. You could photoshop him between photos at different points and it'd look the same each time.

Yea but the Japanese Ambassador is calling on the Air chief second time in as many months.

Never underestimate the need for a free lunch lol.

I think meetings of value would be held without a photographer. It is interesting that Japan has lifted its export ban but I think Exporting to Pakistan might be politically (Domestically as well as Internationally) difficult for Japan.

I highly doubt that PAF has Sushi on the menu.
We even get to see images of Pakistani civilian and military leadership visiting ISI HQ for briefings as a mere image or brief footage seldom discloses any classified info.

Ground for the Japanese Airforce to come to Pakistan for military exercises ( or the reverse ) ?

Would be ideal to have young blood leading for once but i have a feeling that after his stint in Washington, Waqas Sulheri maybe the preferred choice.

His DCAS role as Ops would have him in favour, an air attache role isn't one of the leading factors
