If truth is what, you are searching, then let me direct how - everyone can verify independently the facts on their own
Social Media platforms have been abuzz with heavy social media counters from INDIANS as well as PAKISTANIS after Indian media agency today morning released a set of pictures that showed a wreckage of PAF F16 which was shot down by INDIAN Mig 21 Bison after PAK fighter jets tried to retaliate against a action of INDIAN fighter jets blasting terrorist bases in Balakot, which is near Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Lets FACT CHECK & prove FAKE claims of PAKISTAN DGISPR Major General Asif Gafhoor as well as PAKISTANI social media Propaganda makers.
Dividing Our expose into :
1. AIM 120C AMRAAM missile showed by INDIA is sold to TAIWAN<—-Big Lie
Later yesterday in the evening Tri services chiefs exposed PAKISTANI lie of PAF F16 Falcon not used to attack INDIAN assets by exposing the actual wreckage of a AIM 120C AMRAAM which PAKISTAN fired at a INDIAN AIRFORCE asset whose wreckage fell in the INDIAN side of border. This is the closeup pic

The contract number mentioned here is “FA8675-05-C-0070” which can be easily found in Raytheon contract website :
“http://archive.defense.gov/Contracts/Contract.aspx?ContractID=3193”
which says exclusively :
Raytheon Co. Missile Systems, Tucson, Ariz., was awarded on 28 December 2005, a $50,739,270 firm fixed price contract modification to provide for 102 Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile Air Vehicles under the foreign military sales program for the following countries: Czech Republic, Hungary, Jordan, Malaysia, and Canada. Total funds have been obligated. This work will be complete in July 2008. Headquarters Medium Range Missile Systems Group, Eglin Air Force Base, Fla., is the contracting activity (FA8675-05-C-0070/P00016.
i.e The AIM120C AMRAAM missile series with contract no (FA8675-05-C-0070) is sold to Czech Republic, Hungary, Jordan, Malaysia, and Canada & not TAIWAN( No where its mentioned that its sold to TAIWAN)
This clearly debunks PAKISTANI website Tribune.com.pk Fake FACTCHECK link :
Missile shown by Indian generals appears to be one sold to Taiwan | The Express Tribune
AIM120C particular series(FA8675-05-C0070) not sold to TAIWAN!!! so for heavens sake stop fooling people.
2. F16 Falcon Jet Not used to attack INDIA<– Another lie
Now many of our readers must be wondering how such series of missile ended up in INDIAN side of Border after the attack by PAK Jets ?
Now Does it ring a bell, if it doesn’t… lets do it for all of you.
The answer to the question is this PAKISTAN bought second hand F16s from Jordan & inducted it in its airforce after US govt blocked the sales of F16 to PAKISTAN over inaction to stop terrorism.
Here is the Proof with Links : US-Pakistan F-16 Deal Is Dead: Islamabad Mulling Jordan F-16 Fighter Jets Instead
Now lets come back to the main agenda, the below pic shows wreckage of PAF F16 Falcon of PAKISTAN AIRFORCE which was shot down by a INDIAN Mig21 Bison
The serial number of the downed PAF F16 clearly shows : “80269”
Now how to check yourself & Confirm :
————————————————————-
Here is a link of the F16 fighter jet database with the serial numbers of the jets : Airframes
You just have to enter the serial no & it will display the details of the jet
The Serial number in question is “80269”, if we enter we get result :
Now if we click on ” Details” on the right hand side of the result, We get :
Airframe Details for F-16 #78-0269
Now how to cross check if this Jordanian F16 is sold to Pakistan or not ??
Simple go to the Link : Airframes ,
In the search bar type PAF & click on search
You will get your answer is the 3rd Grouping ( Marked by the arrow ):
Q. )Now people might be confused why its showing Jordanian flag for a Pakistan jet still??
Ans- Because it’s a third party purchase b/w Jordan and Pakistan, USA is not involved.
Confirmation if Jordanians sold its F16s to PAKISTAN??
****************************************************
You can also confirm this if you dont get this diplomat link by going to the dawn.com link : PAF inducts first batch of F-16 fighter jets from Jordan - Pakistan - DAWN.COM
Which now clearly proves that the Jet which attacked INDIAN military installations & was shot down by Mig 21 Bison is this Jordanian F16 jet which PAF inducted to address its depleting squadrons issue.
3. The Body in the wreckage is not a F16<– Another Lie
Now another big controversy that the PAKISTANI social media users are spreading is they are denying the downed jet is a F16 and saying its a Mig 21 which was shot down.
Now lets do a image analysis of the Engine found in the wreckage of the downed jet
Pic 1 is from outside view of the engine :
and pic 2 is surely engine inside part as both images compliment each other :
4. AIM120C AMRAAM is compatible with JF17<–Big Lie
Pakistani social media users are also peddling this lie that AIM120C is compatible with JF17 like the below PAK user
The answer to this question is this :
