If is it that cheap and vintage then why all those hues and cries for only 8 F-16s of Pakistan. So much contradictions in Indian's deals. Starts with a big thing and ends with nothing...

Would you not want to deny your enemy any and all defense equipment? You would have done the same if you were in India's place.

 

[Spring Onion]

The news appeared today.

Well No actually it is reproduction of OLD news items just to satisfy the hurt feelings of Indians coinciding with sale of F-16s to Pakistan.

Go check a thread we had a good debate there on this news item

You might have mistaken something else for something. LM is in India for yesterdays Make in India's program. This news is from yesterdays Make in India's program. They are part of corporate that pledged to $222 billion make in India program

Pakistan never opposed the deal like the way India did by hues and cries even responded by US in befitting reply however, such news is only to satisfy the Indian taxpayers whose money is wasted in lobbying as 8 birds are coming to Pakistan.

 

[Cyberian]

Because according to the original post, US offered this deal to India in September 2015, however, India rejected this deal and went straight for the Rafales... off the shelf.

To punish India, the United States has decided to sell the same F-16s to Pakistan, guess what, it would appear Indians can't handle the heat.

Old News was when Lockheed was Rejecting Full TOT but During MII Event in Mumbai this Month and in ongoing Singapore International Airshow Lockheed Martin Delegates
told this

“We are ready to manufacture F-16 in India and support the Make in India initiative,” Phil Shaw, chief executive of Lockheed Martin India Private Ltd told reporters at the Singapore Airshow 2016. - See more at: Ready to manufacture F-16 jets in India: Lockheed Martin | The Indian Express

As i stated above, as soon as India starts the manufacturing, which i doubt, there will be no need of them anymore for Pakistan. This is all about timing and US knows that we wouldn't buy from India so forget the dream of Make In India for Pakistan. We are having the right number of our birds before make in India thing. Only future will tell. Rest about induction, it is Indian members started to talk about though i mean the same thing that India has already rejected the Jet so why such sudden love for F-16s.

I know Pakistan wont buy from enemy.....but other country will be....sudden love fo F16 manufacturing with TOT

 

[Strigon]

Maybe this step will stop the f-16 nasha for PAF and look for other options. You would never see those rednecks that yell "Dae tok aur jabs" repeat their usual BS when their actual jobs are outsourced.

As India already knows it so indeed the sudden love is nothing but to cool down the situation for Indian lobbies. After all, Pakistan's F-16s are coming directly so no worries at all and rest about the deal, Rafale deal tells a lot that what is going to happen. Actually it seems to be, every gadget with TOT word attracts Modi ji very much despite needed or not only for Make In India purpose and nothing else.

if TOT word does not attract you...its your problem....
You are just buying F16....India would be manufacturing with TOT....India will love to have TOT of US plane thats out interest....
BTW countries are dying to sell their fighter plane to India...India is not begging to any one.....Rafale will happen...dont you worry

Dying.... India has not learned still from previous deal...amazing. ... Again shows the great India claim with big pocket..

if TOT word does not attract you...its your problem...

It was quoted as India is merely concerned with TOT despite a vintage plane... isn't it? after all the same was rejected before.... though waiting for confirmation of both the deals that aren't matured yet but delays and delays.... Indeed the TOT attracts us and everyone who couldn't build alone but in sensible manners like for newer technology rather of a vintage plane as per India and fear of mere 8 F-16s.

Either India is in rush to prove make in India successful

or

again mistaken for TOT of a plane that India stated as inferior in case of Pakistan.

or

just a calm down pill for the moment..

If any american fighter fits the bill of IAF needs it is F18SH

 

[#hydra#]

f16 is a better multirole bird compared to f18. And moreover f16 is almost half the cost of f18.

F16 is used by PAF since 80s nd they can field better combat strategy with f16 than a new operator.

Seriously Pakistanis are fed up of all your dramas and tantrums. It is since like 6-7 years you guys are doing this drama of "mother of all deals". And even today it is going nowhere.

Just buy a f*cking aircraft and move on. This is only what Pakistanis have to say about you guys right now.

BC 6 saal sai chutya bana rahai hain.

Yahi toh game plan han beta.
Actual plane select hone se pehle hi enemy ko chutya banao.
