PAF F-16 | Discussions

We had total of 16 mirage variants in service at one point iirc but only 5 or 6 variants with any meaningful difference were in service at any time

Thanks for update, but yeah 6 different variants is 4-5 too many
 
Wow, thought it was much more during Gulf War 1 & 2 and then Yugoslav conflicts.

Just checked and you are right, very few USAF air to air kills.

Wow...

F-16s primarily served in secondary and a2g roles as f-15s and f-18s led cap and air superiority missions in most conflicts
 

this rugged thing is not going to end up in its grave even after it is being discontinued in services all over the world.

no matter what people say, the days are over for it, or it is a thing of the past. No, never.

a legend never dies; it lives forever, and it proves it.

praised, admired, honored by the opponents in the form of a great adversary, fear, anxiety.

the young on this forum or those who keep joining learn about it, know it and keep it alive on this forum after it becomes history.
 
The psycholgical hold this plane has had on the enemy since it was introduced still remains. Irrespective of us having J-10C and JF-17C, Indians always say "F-16" when making false claims of downed jets. They cannot get this plane out if their heads even after 40 years.

Ask a Pakistani about any Indian plane, he will not know what to say. As both Indians and Pakistanis to name a PAF jet, all of them will always answer F-16

Its not that. For them getting spanked by J10 and JF is absolute nightmare. You know, the "chinki technology" , "Junk fighter", all that non sense. They rather be at receiving end of American F16 then any other platform. Its deliberate ploy, keep the focus of their discussion to F16 and make chutiya of their nation, while not telling them what J10 and JF did to them. Its more embarrassing for them since how they Tejas endup against what JF is doing, which is leading from the front.
