yeah...well no such rift between IA and IAF. They have always been credible and reliable. Even in these dire circustances they accepted that a helipcopter was downed due to our own mistakes and made it public.

I think showing 'F16B' again a blunder from their side. Caught red handed. Or may be it is the starting point of acceptance of F-16 loss as they somehow have to give some respect to Haidar Shabaz.
Possibly has to do with the local culture. Punjab Pakistan, some parts of northern India are more feudal and hot-headed, and this also allows both, especially Pakistan to go more easily for a physical fight.
Sir I took that in account and also the locals statment and that's why I concluded it could be Indian bombs only in last line, maybe you missed it.
Took me advance search, thankfully I marked the tweet with special tags here it is-
As if Americans wouldn't know your use of F16s?try better than PAF schooling PA on T/Cs as if PA doesn't know that , DGISPR had to change his statement when India showed AMRAAM debris and they knew that they have been caught lying.
This is probably how Pakistan is explaining that its F-16 fighter jet inventory is intact
Read this article u will understand how
PAF inducts first batch of F-16 fighter jets from Jordan - Pakistan - DAWN.COM
PAF acquires F-16s from Jordan
Pakistani sources Dawn quoted from thenews and the news says manufacturing company "CONFIRMED" 9As and 1 Bs
US-Pakistan F-16 Deal Is Dead: Islamabad Mulling Jordan F-16 Fighter Jets Instead
The Diplomat talks about 14 F16s
Try better next time
While reason for lying 5 years ago might be different but PAF used it to hide current loss smartly[/QUOTE]

This explains Ghafoor not getting promotion lol
@The Deterrent this also has another implication. F 16 did all the fighting. JF 17 was a lemon (like we said it was).... what will happen to WINDY BHAI
At first I thought I will read you post but then I realized it was your post and so didn't read it.
F-16B had two pilots in it. Who was the second pilot and why has he not been given his due? In a twin seater, the honours are shared by both the pilots and not by just one. When I had posted the names, @Arsalan123 was lying thru his teeth that Hassan is alive. I once again firmly state that he died of his injuries after 4-5 days. PAF lost one F-16 and two pilots on 27th. We lost just one Mig-21Bison.
Why has Pak come out with half truth? It has to do with interservice rivalry which is common in all armed forces across the globe. PAF is the better service in Pakistan. They still value and respect valour. They forced the hands of ISPR to give credit to its fallen and Martyrs.
And I will vouch for you that you never read this post. You can quote me on this to give you a certificate.
Exactly. This was probably the poor dude who was beaten to death by the stupid villagers who thought he was a hindu because his parachute was saffron in color.
It is not a lemon as such, it is a good replacement for fighters other than F-16 in Pak inventory. Additionally blk 3 will be the 'true' JF-17.
Imagine if IAF had used Tejas in the same role as PAF in this conflict - we would have said that it has proved its worth as an excellent support fighter. @vstol Jockey.
Still no news about the co pilot of Sidiqqi. I think this is the first step towards acknowledging the loss of F-16B and Haider Shabaz.
Also I checked in the net if there are any ceremony photos of awarding medals to Army/PAF but I found nothing(wanted to check when PA officially awarded/announced medals to their Kargil war heroes). They can't keep Siddiqi's death as secret forever as he is going to receive the medal.
Bigger achievement is that they were able to field it.
We are lot far away from doing it.
wait for 14th August in Pakistan and 15th August in India.
The bolded part - i didn't know that, though what you said is logical. Even @The Deterrent also said this:
If Hassan Siddiqui is indeed dead then bringing out his name will once again make Pak media to search for him. If he is alive then he has to be produced, else Pak version is problematic.
Actually in defence of Pakistan, they say that the MKI pilot who died in a car crash a few days after 27th is a pilot of the downed MKI.
