Pakistan may study other fighter options as US asks Pakistan to make full payment for F-16 purchase

You take them instead. I heard India is getting F-16 production plants. Good luck with that and your new American friends.
Ruined a perfect Meme war start :(. No way India wants or is getting F-16 production line. At max LM will pitch in for setting up of supply chain for MRO for various platforms that may include F16s.

F16 as a product is what we call has now reached the point of having diminishing returns that its is not prudent to produce.

On topic: Pakistan will find the money miraculously in its account to afford these jets. These are mere theatrics. Yanks play games with everyone, wait for two three months.
 
It is a time to Pakistan review its policy on the war on terror.
 
Sir

Any jet we pursue from United States, Europe or Russia will be prone to sanctions.

It leaves only Chinese option behind. And there is nothing in their market which can actively act as 4+ or 4++ Generation aircraft for PAF.

They lags behind in key areas, from engine to weaponry, from ECM to radar .......

On paper their aircrafts look awesome, but in reality they are not a worthy shot.

Despite F16s, there is no other feasible option.
PAF plans to add 2 more squadrons of F16 & 8 more squadrons of Jf17 by 2020 to replace the legacy fighters........ And F16-Jf17 combo is best and most time efficient.

During the era of Musharraf, PAF showed the requirement of 72 4+ Generation aircrafts along with Jf17 as replacement of old aircrafts. Musharraf divided those 72 in to
36 from East, 36 from West.

For 36 Western aircrafts we went to United States and they offered F16 52+ and F15 C/D. We refused F15s & decided to buy F16s only. Brought 18 of them and LEFT the rest for lack of funds due to economic crisis during Zardari era.

Same thing happened with J10 which after evaluation by PAF fighters were rejected too as they were powered by WS10 which was a thumb down case. Al31 were not available. Above all, it's superiority was questionable.

Now our of those 72 4+ Generation aircrafts we got only 18, & this is very miserable.........
Blame it lack of funds or poor planning, it's up to us.
But the country with so weak foreign policy is bound to trap in trouble of sanctions, something for what PAF must not be blamed.


Hi,

Please excuse my french then---then how the fck did the JF17 got to be on the top tier---.

And how do you know that the chinese aircraft don't pas muster---. They are preparing to fight the U S----for the last fifteen years now----.

Well according to your analysis---you are doomed---. F16's are sanctioned---you got nowhere else to run---.

So---let me ask you this---you tried to get admission for your little daughter and young son at the most prestigious school in the city---. all your attempts failed----because the standard of education according to you is lower at the other schools---so would you decide to keep them illiterate----I guess not----you will take the second best and tell your children to beat the living sh-it out of the children from that other school by getting higher marks.

The choices that you make in your daily life about your immediate or extended families for their welfare---you don't make the same choices for your motherland---.

US has not cancelled the deal, they are just asking you to pay the sticker price. Why should US tax payers subsidize PAF?

my point, sonnyboy is buying combat aircraft is is not like buying vegetables. why is your AF obsessed with f16? because they already have dedicated infrastructure and training facilities not to mention a wealth of experience and older aircraft which can be cannibalized in case of embargo. a new aircraft type will come with a buttload of expenses and your AF does not seem happy to take the risk understandably so because they are chinese.

why are you lot obsessed with tejas? its a decent 4th gen fighter and should be an ok addition once it gets inducted to replace the mig21s. and most modern aircraft anywhere in the world takes decades to develop, maybe except the chinese. they seem to mint out "5th gen fighters" like apples
 
Huge diplomatic Success????? Come on mate.....

As per rules you are not supposed to doctor the title....... If you think this is a diplomatic success, then it should be part of your post not the title......

It is a time to Pakistan review its policy on the war on terror.

What are you gonna do, stop fighting TTP or any other anti Pakistan organisations?

Because those are the only terrorist organisations, you are fighting right now.

And that is one of main reasons US has decided to cut your funding, "you are taking their money but just fighting your terrorists"
 
So what's new here, old news that has been repeatedly posted before.

US 'drops planned Pakistan F-16 fighter jet subsidy'
By Brajesh UpadhyayBBC News, Washington

And cow cola with a personal flavour.

Huge diplomatic succes for India over pakistan on f16.
where does it say that ? :what:
 
Why did pakistan subsidize the U S war on terror---?
Because your country ran on Whims and Fancy of a subservient dictator, rather than a strong independent political system with checks and balances that reflect the will of the people.
 
This deal is win-win for Pakistan. If these jets come from CSF then it is good, if not we would be moving on. One way or the other we cannot always rely on US no matter what they have done for PAF in Past.
