F15-18 not expensive pretty much at range of Blk 72 with F16 engine it won't be an issue spares are not issue as well friendly countries have them also U can make it part of deal.Come on
No to F-15 or 18, for that we would need up gradations in current facilities to facilitate the maintenance as well as stock up spares in case of sanctions. Secondly, USA won’t give us such and neither do we have the capacity to buy it.Qatar buying around 4 billion whole package blk 72 is not cheap either.
PERIOD
We still need dedicated deep strike platform twin engine.RA'AD is enough. India has good AD System. Not easy for deep strike unless the jet is Fifth Generation

So definitely not E but F22s I Beleive its total cost of cycle lncluding weapons spares. 72jett are 12 billion for Qatar about 6 per billion including everything.https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...er-jets-delivered-by-march-2021-idUSKCN1NV1AV
12/36 = 300+ million dollars
So far Govt is sitting tight let's see what comes out from box as one respected member @Knuckles last Year IK trip to DC US offered F15 E to PAF. LM is doing fine with F35 and still F16 is selling like hott cakes its Boeing which needs orders like they cutting down production of F18 super Hornets. Not many F15 E orders in pipeline. Let's see what PAF after this time door is open for PAF. PAF wants payment through CSF which needs to be resolve after peace deal I believe this issue will resolve as well its about 8-10 billions
Just to put a hold on this narrative, POTUS can overpass congress in this case. Ref: last KSA selling. The issue isn't either POTUS or Congress but more about paying upfront as compare to utilizing FMS & CSF.
Regards,
I presume its Boeing that offered the F-15, an aircraft that Pakistan is not even interested in, and still not interested in. Does India even want to induct another US fighter and all that it entails? And it's the E model, not the new EX model that USAF is interested in.
Whatever equipment manages to acquire for US, a few hurdles must be cleared. The peace plan with Afghanistan will need to be finalized and signed. Then the issue of CSF will need to be restored. As for how much CSF Pakistan will be compensated is still up in the air. The claim of $8-10 billion is being claimed by Pakistan, something the US may not agree with. Still, this will be an issue that Congress will decide as they are the ones who write the checks.
The KSA deal was forced through because Trump claimed it was a national security issue. Something Congress -- both Democrats and Republicans -- were not happy about. It will be interesting to see if Trump tries to do the same thing with Pakistan, considering there's no emergency or national security. How can they be when US is withdrawing from Afghanistan?
It's interesting that Pakistan thinks it will get more than the usual from US: F-16 Blocks 70s, V upgrades for existing F-16s, AIM-9x, AIM-120D, etc. I know the Khafee leaks say otherwise, but I have doubts. Why would US give Pakistan a conventional edge over India?

American when they want they can declare anything national security. Pak case they declare ISIS or Iran anything nobody question. It's business anyway.I presume its Boeing that offered the F-15, an aircraft that Pakistan is not even interested in, and still not interested in.
