They're updating the monitoring of PAF F-16s, as the contract indicates.

Yeah, technical security team was part of the Block52/MLU contract. As the years go by though this becomes more and more pointless. Very few countries will be still be operating the APG-68/AIM-120C7 combo after 2030 I reckon, so unsure if there is a stipulated timeline for how long that team remains in place

They're upgrading the facilities and food, so the intention is to expand the program to a longer duration.

Seems pointless but I guess none of us are really privy to the logic behind many decisions, I am sure there is still critical tech on the platforms

They're literally updating the hardware/ software for up to date monitoring of the fleet and here we have blk 70 V kit fanboys jumping left and right. What a shame.

Blast from the Past:

Over 11-12 Years back, Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) did modernize PAF's Vipers.

It's the same capability sustainment program don't know why some I'll informed ones are blowing it out of proportion. No V kits offered let nor are we getting any blk 70s. Why the fuss on an old news. It's just 700m$ sustainment program. The block 2 from block 1 had more upgrades than this. Gosh.The old announcement resurfaced with V-MLU power boosters. Nothing but Mich Masala, which too much is

V-MLU Mirch Masala, hazardous to health.
