Mirage III / V of Pakistan Air Force

[Pakistanithinktank]

Hi, to quote something I posted in another thread... "These planes can still be used as bomb trucks for our western front". There is still a lot of ordnance which is custom to these planes (H series glide bombs), and they could be used to hit terrorist hideouts.

Yeah, but they’re turning into a liability now. Two squadrons of J-10C and more JF-17 Block 3s are stepping in to take their place. The retirement’s already rolling, most Mirage III and 5 jets are being phased out, especially the older ones that are worn out and hard to maintain.
Some of the ROSE upgraded Mirage 5s might hang around a bit longer for limited roles like strike or recon, but even those won’t last past the late 2020s.
