Its old allotment was to 26 Sqn...now after sending 12 a/c to 26 Sqn, Peshawar this one is allotted to 16 Sqn based at Kamra.

Any authentic news of that Black Panther being inducted in PAF. I personally doubt so, because, JFs were suppose to replace Fantans/Mirages, and Fantans are well know as Black Spiders, I don't think there exists anything as Black Panthers.

Yes, 16 Sqn is now flying Thunders from its new location Kamra. After evaluating the required strength for a squadron it'll go back to Peshawer.

Off the topic: After induction of Bk52's No.25 Sqn is no more at kamra, they have been posted to Jacobabad....i really miss the delta winged fighter's presence at Kamra:frown:

no my friend. there were two squadrons of A-5 in service! one was called "Black Spiders" and the other one "Panthers"!
in feb last year, thunders were inducted as "Black Spiders" to replace A-5s, and inshallah by this month another squadron will be inducted to replace A-5s and will be called Black Panthers.
note - a-5 squadron was called just "Panthers"
 
Thunder programme seems to progressing very smoothly and rapidly I MUST SAY

We are only hearing about mirages being next to go because of higher maintainence costs.
Whereas, it is possible that PAF had grounded all squardens of A-5 but will raise second squarden later.
 
I have never seen a Thunder in Pak colors with any thing more than a wing tip missile? are there any pics with 4 or 6 weapons.
 
Things regarding the Radar & BVR have just gone quiet.....will we ever have some good news on this subject???

Well hellloooo!!! does SD-10 ring a bell? it has already been integrated with Thunder .... Also as said by the senior members numerous times, PAF is more than happy with KLJ-7 which in all likelyhood be used for Blk-2 as well. So for the next 100 or so jets, that or a slightly improved version will be the radar.
 
I dnt want AESA in block II bt

IRST
1 more hardpoint
higher thrust engine
increase in payload
and a radar with atleast 150-160km range
and raad integration

these thngs are important to be done
 
actually 26 have been fully completed but 22 have been handed over to the PAF after T&E

Well the article says that by middle of last February, 22 had been delivered to No. 26 Squadron while another 8 were going through various flight test phases and would have been delivered by the end of that month.
So going by this account, there should be at least 30 JF-17s in Squadron service.
