“This Fighters will become the most modern and letal Air Weapon System in South America continuing with the leadership in systems of the FACH in this region.”
I don´t think so. Brazil are upgrading its fleet of fighters, acquiring a brand new one (I hope the Flanker which is more than a match for F-16s).
Venezuela is upgrading its fleet of F-16s and have more than 20 years experience on it. Peru has a respectful fleet of fighters and even Argentina with its A-4AR Fightinghawk (Mini F-16) which is still very capable. Also, ten jets is a very small number.

Yes, but even the Flanker System (if Brazil buy those birds) will not be modern than Falcons Block 50+, in the other hand, Brazil “are upgrading”, the Fach already done that many years ago…..I remember you that Fach’s F-5 Fleet Tiger III Standard are Python 4/Derby capable including HMS.
Venezuelan Falcons are F-16 A’s (Block 15????) so older and the Argentinian Ar-A4 please….they will be BVR capability some day? i don’t think so…..
May be in modern Aircraft we could say that the Peruvian’s Mig-29 with R77 Archer capability could front the “Actual” BVR capability of the Fach but nobody knows if the 3 Migs with this capability are operational.
By the way, in systems, the Fach is go ahead in the region.
