That's cute but facts don't care about feelings.

102:0
the 102-0 during the war of attrition cannot just be attributed to the F-15s. Keep in mind that F-15s armed with Sparrows were flying under the cover of E-2C Hawkeyes in the IDFAF service. The poor Syrian aircraft did not even have an air intercept radar on them let alone their own OTH radar coverage to counter the dominance of the IDF. This is akin to current 4.5 generation aircraft going up in the air against the F-22s.

If there was ever a case of a completely one-sided turkey shoot in contemporary air warfare, it has to be the Israeli-Syrian war of attrition when most of these 102 kills were recorded.

After J10 induction load on F16 may reduce and PAF will reduce there flying hours to expend there lifetime
 
Don't know if this has been shared before but here's the first PAF female pilot of the F-16

That’s very interesting(and good to see). The initial impressions of female pilots being confined to F-7s and then posted to auxiliary or transport squadrons seems to be moving forward slowly. However the issue of recovery after pregnancy and recouping of the asset will remain especially with Pakistani culture but hopefully these women will break through.
