F-16 is highly maintenance friendly jet with no overhaul requirements. Its health is depended on quality of Phase Inspections conducted after every 200 flt hours.

PAF has conducted 1000+ inspections till date with utmost professionalism resulting in high serviceability of F-16s.....

These two jets in PAF were considered equally competent before MLU upgrades and arrival of Block-52. Grifo-M radar of Mirage-III ROSE-1 was considered superior in performance to APG-66 of F-16s. This used to give these jets certain advantage in DACT combats.
