Any possibility of F100-PW-220E from Jordan ..... ??? they have 61 such engines but only around +40 F-16s ....

these days Airforce plays the major role in wars..as you can these days US invasion on iraq was mostly made by US airf force and US army could not make successfull operations in Iraq....So more then our Army we should focus on our Airforce as these days without AirForce our other Naval and Army forces are useless...Unless we have a nuclear bomb...according to my opinion Pakistan does not have much amount of F-16 and F-16 is not the worlds best jetfighter there are alot others like F-15,F-22 Raptors and many other which we dont even know the names of it.no doubt we have talented pilots but we need to upgrade ourselves...We should spend most of our defense budget on airforce because I see our airforce more talented then other armed forces but our airforce is lacking technology and variety of updated Jetfighters...We are badly relying on our few F-16s given by US...!!!

Kiddo, read a bit before you post. Most of the issues have been discussed. Find them out, read about them, and then think about posting questions if you have any. Just making rambling posts is not going to get you any attention or praise.

By the way, do introduce your self here: Members Introduction

Pakistan air force F-16MLU armed with GBU-24 Laser guided bombs during redflag 2010 international exercise.

The notion that you need MLU for Air To Ground (ATG) guided weapon on Block 15 is wrong. This aircraft was part of Blk 15 OCU PAF received from USAF (14), and was one of the original 28 built for PAF. Its was not MLUed (at the time of Redflag, no bird slicer in the front of cockpit, may be now). PAF had ATG guided weapons on F16 from day one with French laser pod which were day light only (ATLIS II limitation).

MLU bring night attack capability with Sniper Pods.
Also the 14 Falcon UP structure and engine upgrade were requested/expected for 14 F16 (part of original 28 built for PAF) from USN or other to replace them as they were part of aggressor Sqd. and more extensively used then the USAF.

Post #7748 has old F16 with ATLIS II and Laser Guided GBU-10 2000 lb bombs.

Redflag PAF flew with ATLIS II

Can dual seat be operated by one pilot, just in case? Like what if missle dude dies, can flying dude attack? And if flying dude dies, can gunner still fly?

Did Pakistan ever get compensated by usa for the embargo where its purcchased f16 werent shipped and paf had to pay storage costs?
