700M is a lot for 16 MiGs, even if I take off 100M for training, logistics etc, I still get one MiG for 37.5M US!
I was under the impression that they would be retiring the Mirage 2000Bs andmaybe some Cs as well ?
🙁
Pakistan should buy up the French Mirages once these planes get replaced by the Rafales in the “l’armee de l’aire”
ummm not really
Bindian does not equal Indian since there is a B there, so what does this B mean?
PXXY is but a shortened name for Pakistani and is used worldwid by Pakistanis themselves, only you guys have told me that in England, its considered a racial slur, nowhere else, not in canada anyway, I jsut asked this to my pakistani friend, he never took itas a racial slur, get it now
Is Brit a racia slur?
lol
How about a yakee?
take the stani out of Pakistani and you get, well ****, there is nothing wrong in it, unline Bindian, I am not adding any letters, because somehting tells me that the B was not added there for friendship purposes, besides it is not Indians who came up with the word “****”, Pakistanis and westerners did and protest ver a shortened word is new to me.
damn, calling the British people Brits makes me a big racist now!
Are you Turkish or are you Turk, oho watch out the Pakistnais believe that this is racist. I won’t be calling you guys that since you seem to find offence but I refuse to believe that its a racial slur, its ridiculous, its simply a shortened way of saying pakstnai just like Brit is for British!
The link does not exist or does not work by the way
With 27 F-16s left, it would be a great news for the PAF to get more of them, of course, what does conditional acceptance mean?
Maybe another BVRless batch, sho knows, but they would still be better than those f-7s
However never trust those Americans, a sanction here and there and the fleet gets grounded again, better stick to the Super &
I had the impression that the MCA would replace the IAF strike fighters such as the Mirages, MiG-27s, jags etc while the PAK-FA would compliment the Sukhois in air dominance and tough missions.
You know about this Paxx thing, only in England have I heard that it has been considered a racial slur, its simplya shortened form of saying Pakistani, in Canada, I have never heard of a Pakistani who has protested against that name, in fact most brown ppl call themselves Pxxxx, it does noteven seem to have anything to do with the country anymore. IN the rest of the world, its not a slur, this is an international forum, hence no non UK person would know about it being a slur, besids i don’t see how it is a slur, calling someone Bindian is different, you have added a B that has nothing to do with Indian!
you could call an Indian Ind but since Indian is short enough, people don’t do that.
Our Dutch friend is right, however you have to be impressed by Algeria, who knew that they had such a relatively modern air force
The price you pay for a forum being free I guess
I understand what he was saying, I just do not believe that it will be that easy for the F-22. The curious question then becomes what the heck is going to happen once China, russia etc get stealth fighters as well, if they do not see each other, how will they engage each other.
wow
this heli pic above is amazing, nice quality, this must be a5 Megapixel camera, the pic is so clear.

I always thought that if and when the F-22 has to launch its Amrams, it would have to go to Encon 3 or something like that, meaning not that stealthy, besides when the internal bays open for the missile to be launched, isn’t it possible to detect it. Also a missile does have a radar cross section, your counter measure system computer could calculate easily that this dot is moving towards you and would alert the pilot, other planes who are data linked might also then be able to detect the F-22 and alert the russian or Euroor Chinese pilot?
What happened to Bangladesh’s MiG-29s?
All of the TDs and PVs will aparently be painted white, yucky!
The colour white tends to mean good luck, light etc in India culture but still, what a bad paint scheme!
Another bad crime against an ac would be painting the LCA white, yuck, its such an ugly paint scheme!
