Naah.... my thoughts very clear.. try to get new aircraft.

Old aircraft can be upgraded but how long?

Go with chinese aircraft :)

Indian mirage 2000 also being upgrade but it can use only max 10-15 years..

Go with new... than use 30-35 years

Yes, you are right but certain military hardwares (such as fighter jets) are too expensive to be purchased even after every 20-25 years. It is therefore best to get them upgraded both to keep them relevant to the threat and as stop-gap, while at the same time inducted newer systems. That is exactly what all the militraries across the world do.

Let's be realistic here. USA is not gonna approve AESA radars for PAF even if they manage to save funds for that. Upgrade JF17 with AESA in long run should be the priority for PAF.

Yes totaly agreed but if i m not wrong, f- 16 c/d manuf. In mid 1980 n almost 30 years old.....

So try to get new aircrafts n fly cost n maintainence should be less conpare to old one... by the way, its depends on money but i think u can get from china with soft loan:)
