Yes, like having ejection seats :D
Over 140 unique modifications and upgrades were made by PAC to the F 6
eg

Avionics & Displays: Integration of western avionics systems and gun cameras into the cockpit.
Armament Upgrades: Modifications to carry western and French weapons, including the AIM-9B/J/P Sidewinder air-to-air missiles and French 68mm SNEB rocket pods.
Fuel & Endurance: Addition of an underbelly gondola-style (integral) fuel tank. They also tested larger drop tanks.
Safety Improvements: Installation of Martin-Baker ejection seats for improved pilot survivability.
Electronic Warfare: Placement of the EW antennae behind the cockpit for enhanced threat detection and survivability.
Ground Support: Implementation of a special ground power unit that bypassed internal start procedures, enabling significantly faster engine starts and quicker scramble times.

The list goes on and on...but i hope u get the picture.
