PAF to Acquire Fighter Jets from Korea

[Altis6453]

I don't get why a lot of politicians and locals have this mentality that the U.S. has the moral obligation to protect us in case of a conflict with China or any other WPS claimant. It's also crazy to expect that the US will keep giving us boats and aircraft for our military without compensation. Parang nanlilimos parati.

i type corrected.
F-14 tomcat nga si tomas cruz. dual engines and variable sweep wings. originally designed to "whip the enemy".

It can still hold its own to any aircraft except maybe the raptor hehe.. it is such a dominant fighter plane pero sobrang mahal lang bilhin at i-maintain. F16 alam ko mas practical for us even now.

Dapat mag lease a fighter na lang ang pinas... Lahat sagot ng aircraft company.

they do. mutual defense and all that...
but only after their congress says so.
big word.. "after"..

this is in comparison with japan..
"don't bother to put up an armed forces. we will protect you, no matter what..".

Japan has a thriving homegrown arms market. They have their own warships, armor, small arms, ASW aircraft, etc. They just haven't been allowed to export them until recently.

Raptor 5th generation fighter jets are exclusively USAF, not even the Israelis are entitled to it

I hope the PAF was able to get the other Golden Eagle repaired. It was damaged by a bird strike a few months ago and was consequently grounded.
