As frustrating as it is that we are not even able to procure an obsolete piece of equipment, it also shows the extent of trepidation of our enemy since 27 feb 2019. I wonder how we will get the blk 70s if we cant even manage mirage 5s.

It is not a ideal world my friend, getting the right product and the right price and at right time is not easy.

All game is fir india next jet deal for rafales France looking into 110 + rafales deal with heavy kick back, to make india happy thay will do what ever is not in favour of Pakistan
On the other hand what this M5 deal give them, when specifically no solid kickbacks involved

As per reports and news the PAF is planning to retain Mirages for strike role till 2025 or beyond, meanwhile the Mirage Horus certainly has better radar and equipment as compared to Pak existing Mirage fleet so if PAF is able to induct a squadron from this deal, replacing existing 18 Mirages and to cannibalize remaining jets for upgrade of own fleet than it is not a bad deal but perhaps Egyptians demanding higher price tag or Indo/ French factor is there. Please clarify if you have any further information.

Price IS the issue for now, but it will be sorted out IA.

Hi,

Feb 27th was a nail in our coffin---.

Pakistan is going to pay a very heavy price for not joining GCC in Yemen---. It would be a miracle that Pakistan comes out unscathed---.

That offer was something that happens once in centuries---.

The Egyptian Mirages bring new capabilities to PAF. My personal opinion is that they will be inducted as replacements for the existing fleet, and not for spares. On the other hand, the existing fleet might be used as spares for them.

Your opinion?

Hi,

If there is an issue---I believe that pakistan should involve saudi arabia in finishing off this deal---.

My understanding is that these mirages are pretty well equipped---. They might end up in lead role strike platform---.

This is what is scarring the anti-Pakistani elements.
