During the next indo pak KICK OFF the PaKISTANIS will see forthemselves WHY IAF did not buy the F16 OR F18 MMRCA.
Those 18 block 52S + 45 MLU F16 will be STARVED OF SPARES and munitions.
There will be fatigues and damage and PAF will need service spares and missles,
BUT USA will stop at nothing to stop the WAR asap.
" THAT IS ONE OF 4 MAJOR REASONS " why IAF was sm,art to go for euro canards
remember IAF has used british & french fighters for 50 years
usa planes never....
please tell us something new - all your 1500 posts carry the same msg
i dont think all our hopes will be pinned on the f16s -- fc20 will ATLEAST be as competant as blk52s -- most of the integrations are already done on the j10 [j10a] , so its induction will be quick aswell.
jfts with long range precision guided weapons integrated with awacs will also make life miserable for the iaf
rumours of russian engines being bought for paf j10b are in the air
