It was agreement for 10 years expiring in 2019 not before that.

Do you beieve that in 2019 there will be no restrictions?

I think PAF should forget about F16s as it is time to move on

Agreed They should move on but with enough 15 years of spares.

Stop having wet dreams already. I bet this has been a recurring New Years wish for Indians since 1984 to somehow get rid of PAF's Vipers ... rest assured their operational effectiveness will be up to par against IAF when the time comes.

As for Pakistanis who keep harping on enough F-16s time and time again, come back to reality. If you think those weapon systems are compromised somehow, then you should also accept that PN will have no anti-submarine/maritime patrol aircraft and other naval weapon systems would somehow suddenly stop working too, along with all the radars systems and other weapons of American or European origin, attack helicopters and transport planes, etc etc. The list is going to be long. But the fact of the matter is, all these systems will perform as expected against India, the only country we will be going in an all out war against.

On January 15, 1983, the first of two F-16As and four F-16B were flown to Sargodha by the six pioneers, with a young Squadron Leader Shahid Lateef grabbing the media's spotlight by landing the first F-16B (serial# 82602) aircraft. https://t.co/JY4rbhtmbn

No But they were supplying the ones that were designed for us and were with USN.

14. The US Navy and Marine Corps are flying it at Top Gun and it will be useless to pursue those jets as they are being used hardcore everyday for heavy ACM.

The salty sea air is also said to have taken toll on the air frames.

From own experience, i can tell, on those radars, the target is the only object on the screen which maintain shape. The clutter and false echoes change shape. thats the biggest clue.
