Pakistan to buy the Emirati Mirage 2000-9 fighter jets in favor of Pakistan Air Force (PAF)

[SSGcommandoPAK]

Why not J16s ?


Bhai diversify the weapons, radars, systems not the platforms

Don't know maybe it's not available for export/PAF didn't like the machine.

Hi,

Young man---the Mirage 3 and Mirage 5 are VINTAGE---.

Hey,
There's always a place for a delta wing A/C for certain roles. PAF has a long history with Mirages so it should be a logical step given the budgetary constraints.

J-16s can not be exported to any third country. Its been covered here before and I have cited publications commenting on exactly that.

Pakistan is not an export customer. We have a different status as far as joint defence is concerned.

No there is no different status and Pakistan is an export customer. We pay for everything we buy from China. J-16 is a licensed copy of Su-27 family and Russia's agreement with China does not allow any export.

Explain kindly how to diversify weapons and radars on the JF-17? Common sense would dictate that you simplify a supply chain for the same equipment. Older JF-17s would be upgraded with the same weapons and radars/ecm/ldps etc as the later blocks.

Diversification, lets say or radars from China for eg, from the same supplier also means that both systems would be susceptible to similar threats since the are originating from the same country/company and hence are either just versions of the same base design. Hence diversification for end users really happens with platforms and systems that originate from different companies/countries.

If your logic would have been correct then USAF, PLAAF, RuAF would all be using aircraft from several countries. Your (so called) logic for diversification is wrong. What we need is standardisation not this type of diversification.

They manufacture their own systems with different companies competing and using their own proprietary technology, which they dont share with each other. Please put some thought behind your points first before responding just for the sake or argument.

UAE's Mirage-2000 9 will come with hidden Nuclear Material sniffing spy equipments for US/Israel & India...as per plan. Offer will be cheap to make it look attractive.

Correct your information J-16 is a UN-licensed copy of Su-27 therefore there is no bar on exports.
And yes there is a special relationship and Pakistan has a lien on any weapon in service with PLAAF and PLAN and PLA.

Where will they hide this equipment? Please share this really useful intel with us.

If true then it would be a nice move. Mirages IIII/V are the delivery platform for nukes and now are aging. Mirage 2K should be easy to integrate and more capable.

More than one companies are involved in various projects of Pak Army and PAF also. Some are Chinese, some are western origin. Keep yourself uptodate.
