PAF is as usual gun-ho and over optimistic on what they can achieve. At beast, PAF will stop at new radar + EW and that is it. There will be no variant with structural changes, Pakistan lacks the depth of engineering capabilities to do that.

Hello.
If it’s not too much trouble, could you show the pages describing the avionics and armament specifications of the Mirages following the Rose upgrade?
I wonder what radar model is installed on them.

Somehow PAF still feel that JF-17 are not good replacement for Mirages. Now, i dont know if this means PAF believe that JF17 failed in providing these capabilities which a 40 year old fighter jet is providing, like is it this hard to replicate those capabilities in JF17 ?

Possibly, Mirage 5 still has a very decent range and capability, we have rewired many of these for stand off weapons, maybe PAF thinking of holding on to them for a few more years as stand off carriers. USAF is essentially doing this with the B-52, to the extent the B-1 will get retired before the B-52!!!
