Tentatively looking to wednesday now.Thats all we can do

I believe these aircraft were bought (if in fact all these khafee rumours are true), after 27th Feb 2019. Chinese premier basically offered anything and everything to PM IK. IK didn't just do nothing with it, but asked the three services to go on a spending spree that will create a rearmament that Pak has been lacking since the 1980s.

So, PAF pilots have been training on these platforms and learn, adapting them in China for more than a year now. This is not like the 1980s when a plane could take years to master - at that time, Chinese doctrine was very primitive and thus Pak had do develop doctrine, tactics and operations from scratch.

Proof in this regard can be seen on how quickly the PAF got F-16s operationalized against Afghan and Soviet air forces.

Another issue raised is naval aviation doctrine, some are saying developing this will take a long time. They are ignoring that PAF / PN have been operating Mirages and JF-17s as naval aviation platforms for decades. All that is happening is more capable aircraft are now here, giving them greater range and payload.

Drowning men clutch at straws. Same people that didn't believe these purchases are now making up stories about how adapting to naval aviation will take a long time, how adapting new aircraft will take 8 years or whatever other garbage theories they are spewing. Mature analysis suggest PAF would be able to get new aircraft operationalized as fast as the Rafales, if not faster.

This is not, what the upgraded variant PAF is acquiring, capable of carrying ... it is much much more. These figures are for the JH-7 let alone JH-7A or the JH-7AII : which we are acquiring.

Indians have already shot down many...which haven't arrived here yet.....

ALCM integration ?

 

[AliYusuf]

ALCM integration ?

Quite likely.

 

[Nightfox]

Quite likely.

That would make good use of the clearence

JH-7 went through an engine upgrade already prior to the A11 variant:

China required the WS-9 to power the Xian JH-7 and JH-7A strike fighter programme, which an Asian government expects to total 320 aircraft by 2020, conceivably requiring 960 engines. There are reports of an upgraded 9.9t-thrust WS-9A.

ANALYSIS: Can China break the military aircraft engine bottleneck?

China's political and aerospace leadership is painfully aware that that its airpower ambitions are severely impeded by the lack of what it calls a "Chinese heart," or modern indigenous aircraft engines.

Americans arent stupid. What do they have to do with this? They will try even harder now to find more influence over PAF and PA in general. Which means there shouldn't be any issues with regards to more F-16s. Infact it would most likely be made easier now.

I don't think Americans or Indians (especially in our case) are unaware of what our forces are planning/doing. They already know about these acquisitions but they are quite because it only shows:-
1). Americans seem to lose control/influence on Pakistan Armed Forces.
2). Indians with their Rafale acquisition seems a lost cause, as they have not yet fully receive their Jets and PAF has an answer to them.

Imagine a Ceremony

Just thinking about it giving me chills ❤❤

 

[capricorn5192]

PDF is again in denial Mode ....raat ko achey bhaley soey the....

I think the members their know/have information about these acquisitions but the management is purposefully denying it/not acknowledging it.

 

[capricorn5192]

Americans aren't Pakistanis. They don't keep trying harder and harder to please a foreign state, that is a distinctly Pakistani thing to do.

They never pleased Pakistan but had influence over us by FATF, IMF, WB and Military Sales. They will likely facilitate F-16s like @Pakhtoon yum said.
