[nomi007]

they can take back like #801 f16 yaar why the hell waste lives

I am sure that PN is looking towards a Chinese alternative to the two destroyed as they will be new and cheaper also. So we would have 5 P-3C MPAs along with 3 P-3Cs AWE&Cs in near future.....

I fail to understand how the PAF would be able to dedicate even a single JF-17, in a war scenario against India, to a naval role. You'll need everything you have for IAF. As it is IAF's doctrine[not really sure] is to first achieve aerial supremacy.

& our's is minimum deterrent! you see we have no aggressive designs like our neighbor. As long as we can make india believe that an act of aggression will mean a bloody nose. we have achieved our aim.

The more important[or as important] thing than making them believe that you can give them a BN is to become capable of giving them a bloody nose. Anyway, how was this relevant to what I asked before.

JFTs will be replacing the mirage fleet dedicated for naval role. So,there is a high probability that it'll be carrying C-802/C-803 antiship missiles and bit more capable fighters will be escorting them as well as the aerial platforms like P-3C orions & AWACS to intercept any aggression.

yes but point remains..navy should induct jf-17 itself instead of relying on airforce , as in war the airforce may be too stressed to help. This is what happened in 71 and result was disastrous
i think even 20-24 number will be good enough for the navy to achieve its goal..

So is PN looking towards the Chinese ones MPAs....

Good photo with Stupid remarks from the Photographer.

Lol, that's true. Everytime we received are refurbished and old refreshing to become new one. Same goes to F-16s, upgrading is better than brand new, I guess.
