Thunders hunting for the first kill

[Windjammer]

As reported earlier that the gradual induction of JF-17s into operational service has freed some F-16 units to concentrate on other missions. Where as the F-16 was the prime ADA fighter in the PAF inventory but recently this task in some sectors has been taken over by the JF-17s giving the F-16 pilots more time to polish their skills on A2G missions.
The adoption of JF-17s for ADA has also been confirmed by Alan Warnes during his recent visit to PAF.

Student pilots kicking in the A/B to hone their air-to-ground skills with their ever sharp Hawk-eyed instructor sitting as GIBS in B model for assessments.

Spent time with the superb Black Panthers at Minhas today. Two of their JF-17s on ADA were scrambled with full loadout and headed east.

Thunders should head west,

and first enjoy some afghan and persian cats.

There is no aircraft in Iran or Afghan airforces that can challenge JFT

These aircrafts should be used on Afghanistan or Iran in case they try to intrude into Pakistan.

I am sure that Thunder will hit it's target very soon!

 

[Path-Finder]

Thou don't fear their brand spanking su-22s, mig-21s from the Soviet invasion era? O Lord, how naive. AGinst their mighty jockiez and equipment, PAF stands no chance.

As their is no Afghan Air Force operational. Still Jf-17 has been extensively used on ground attack roles on western borders, even LGB's were used from thunders, but with ground lazing or buddy lazing. Now it might be possible that Aselon pods have already been tested in real action without ground support.
