I think we definitely need to give up on our love affair with the Viper, after 40 years, any relationship needs a bit of spicing up...roll on the J35.

Why would they just give up on airframes that still have life in them? I don't think they have that kind of fiscal luxury.

I'm not saying immediately, that would be ridiculous, but no need to waste any further resources in upgrades or acquiring more.

Han to our priority is defense and we can sell our F16s to Ukraine if we wanted to.

On the old forum, someone mentioned seeing them being upgraded in the US.
Maybe it was @Raider 21 ?

The Block 60 fleet has had updates from time to time.

The Block 60s are to be with UAE only. Pakistan Air Force can only take pictures with the F-16E/Fs. UAE and along with many other supposed Muslim air forces could have helped Pakistan but they never have. PAF was a feeder of IPs and techs to the Middle Eastern air forces and those are dwindling significantly (90% of them have been removed from UAE Air Force).

The Block 60 was the pinnacle of technology development funded by UAE and the UAE royalty rights alone of those aircraft would bankrupt Pakistan.....

So any operating exposure of UAE F-16 Block 60 aircraft to Pak military is as remote as them (Paks) flying Indian Rafales.

Which is why I am fairly certain those citing “sources” have either misheard or are construing wishful thinking or off the cuff remarks as some gospel.

After spending some time on Pakistani forums you can pretty much conclude the standard for what counts as credible information can range anywhere from a random YouTube by some guy with 20 subscribers or their family friends wishful thinking, and then it does rounds as if it's already confirmed. Safe to say never believe anything until you see it.

Agree ... UAE not going to gives away the most capable and customized F16 b60 deveped from there own finding...

This jet still have many potential year left in it....

Once there life is over in future... Even then no chances fo PAF ..
Remember UAE relationship with India .. for them India is much more important now then Pakistan..
