A-5C Fantan equipped 2 PAF squadrons and were based along the AF-Pak border areas. Even after the nearly 22 modifications to the aircraft it was a difficult aircraft to operate. The pilots who managed to operate the aircraft successfully went on to more modern aircraft like the F-7P, Mirage and the F-16.
