CASA CN-235 is also among the platforms that will be retired from PAF service. Their limitations in range & altitude resulted in very little operational value to modern PAF operational construct.

These Platforms in limited numbers were initially bought to cover shorter hops with lighter payloads to ease of C-130 burden. However, small fleet usually results in higher life cycle costs.
