LM has signed a $62B "indefinite duration, infinite quantity" F-16 order with US Government to provide commoditized F16Blk70 to Allies. @ 60M per unit, we are talking about over 350 airframes. Some are bound for PAF.

Salza wants F16s like Pizza right now

"IF" the US release CSF it will be for C-130s, Zulus, MRAPS etc. It will be very hard to get F16s on CSF (offensive weapons)

We should have a middle deal where 60% of the funds will be provided by GoP where as 40% through CSF but I believe we are bent on having F16s 100% through CSF.

Agreed I believe PAF will pick big here since production is huge and buyers are less not too many Airforces needs F-16s plus LM will be comfortable give Max to one reliable client rather lobbying and finding more buyers outside

Exsisting to be converted in USA ? Or Turkey like it happened with the MLU (doubtful) or the best option :pAC Kamra ?
Why are you people so infatuated with Turkey? Even after the F35 fiasco, you haven't learned anything?

Dont worry about where it will happen, when it has to, it will IA.

naah F16 is still a hot commodity

have been saying a lot that an F16, with AIM120 D (or even AIM 120 C5 which we have) is more than capable to finish of Rafale, piloted by an Indian.
