exchange? why are these Barbies & Ken? or transformer toys?
I think you don't care about Pakistan at all. IAF is developing so fast and fierce. Qatar and Syria has a good deal of money and they are also against ISIL like Pakistan. So they can offer money to PAF to get M-2000s from Egypt-Qatar-UAE or even the remaining Mirages of France which might be about 150 of them which can easily be overhauled at PAC with French help and can be upgraded as well.
 
Then what you seniors think??? Will country like Qatar or Syria which has a lot of money can help PAF buy some M-2000s from Egypt and UAE?

What are you smoking.

Why should Syria or Qatar help PAF. Who told you Syria has more money then us?
 
Will it be good for PAF to acquire Mirage-Vs from Egypt now as they are buying MiG-35s???

Also can you tell us other than PAF which are the current operators of Mirage-III and Vs. Also from former operators can PAF acquire more airframe and engine spares???

Question is the refueling prob project scraped??
 
If Pakistan can get Mirage 2000s on really good terms then fine otherwise better spend that money on F-16s. Alot going to be phased out soon. Kill switch is only if you use against USAF, otherwise really really good platforms. Precision CAS of the F-16s has been one of the key factors in the victories in Zarb e Azb

PAF can always rely on Chinese systems for air superiority.

I think it will be far easier to gain the remaining MIrage-III&Vs and even their spares now and continue talks with Egypt, Qatar and UAE for the possible supply of M-2000s till 2020.

More Mirage 3s and 5s are a big NO. The existing fleet now needs to be slowly downsized. Aircraft can be cannibalized.

100% right and True! But you need to understand that PAF has a huge experience in maintaining and operating Mirage-III&Vs so that we should cannibalized most of the air crafts from 200 to just 100 but we also need to get more airframes and engines that can also be used as spares from other countries operating them now or have retired them and are selling them for scrap.
