This report is absolutely false. Even if it is true, it is great, now the IAF will have Su-30 and F-16.  |

Please note that this is just a rumour and should be treated as such.
And please, don't fight the Pakistan-India war in this forum !

F-16s? India?
Look over the Indian Air Fleet OrBat. How many NATO-orgin aircraft do you see except the Mirage 2000s and Jaguars?
Russian and NATO-orgin aircraft don't go together well, at all. |

| I totally agree with the Webmaster. What I don't get is, did the PAF buy USAF Surplus F-16s in the 80s ? |

| Thanks Webmaster, but my question was did Pakistan buy second hand F-16s, or new build F-16s. |

| I believe they were all newly built for Pakistan. The embargoed planes were flown directly from Forth Worth into the Sonoran desert. |

| Well that clears everything up then. I was worrying that the PAF got some old ones because of economic pressure at the time. |
