Pakistan Issues Tender for Radoms for TPS-77 MRR and YLC-18A : QUWA

[Ultima Thule]

Bro, Any Update on F-16s ? The KhafeeLeaks left us with some hope... Times change fast, overnight, deals happen and break. What’s the future prediction ?

I would like to say 50/50 chances,and can we get out of our love of f16 ever

@Khafee left forum longtime ago

Do we have money to buy on cash? IF they change their mind and sell now. Our economy is much more in trouble than theirs, I think GOP will divert the funds to health sector now.

But not crunch what US will bear reason different system lifestyle mortgages.

Khafee hinted that it was to be financed through some Arab nation...considering how volatile Pak's relations are rn with MBS pulling all kinds of moves...I wouldn't be surprised if the F16V thing doesn't materialize.

Though personally I'm really hoping Pak's F16s get upgraded to V standard(with newer frames) as per Khafee. That would give PAF enough edge until Azm NGF materializes.

After 40+ despite of maintenance the investment of fighting falcon is not worth....
We should spend 15 years from now with blk 3....

As per Khafee it wouldn't cost Pak huge sums of money.

In that case I welcome it. F16V and JF17 Block III IMO would be enough to have an edge until mid 2040s...which is when Azm NGF should be at least in LRIP.

Gentlemen,

I simply asked Bratva about a simple opinion and his take, Appreciate all your replies but i know this all.

Let us better get back to the topic in hand.

No offense to any bro here, just don’t want the OP’s topic to be derailed.

We need to spend these 20 years calm and quite....Not need to bother them....
After that Project AZM leads us the edge over any jet including rafale in their arsenal....IOW there 272 mki and 36 rafales becomes useless....unless they spend
25 billions dollars to procure a stealth jet inshape of Su-57 or indigenous shit but even then they can compare not have an edge.... And also if the economy gets better there will be also more goodies....

Unfortunately it is almost impossible that we will see new falcons. Lockmart has shut down production of block 52's and is now exclusively focusing on the 72's/upgraded falcons. Our only realistic option is a second hand purchase or either upgrades of our existing airframes alongside a purchase of either new airframes or second hand ones with an upgrade. Off the top of my head, the conversion costs around $12-15 Million per aircraft to be upgraded to block 72 standard.

You are selling it cheap.
Moroccan Air Force signed a deal for upgradation of 23 blk 52 to blk 70 standard with a tag of $30 million per piece.

Everybody should support Quwa and buy premium so he can start his own defence production company in Pakistan.
