Air Force technical personnel return from Pakistan, first deliveries of JF-17 Block 3s are coming

Turkey has plans on developing UAV based AWACS, perhaps the bigger Akinci can play that role, will be far cheaper and safer.

Yeah, that was the thought process, it probably has very massive AESA radars to identify AWACS and Refueling aircraft at ranges of 400 to 500 kms, pretty much a mini-AWACS itself.

yeah all the focus of US will be on pacific

I believe the 40 is the additional number on top of the current 24 on order, so total of 64 for $4.2 billion sounds more plausible than $4.2 billion for just 40, that would be more than $100 million per airframe. Although nothing is confirmed outside of the initial 24 currently on order.

I believe its the main UAV/UCAV base of PAF

if we end up with 64 JF-17 Block 3s + Kaan (most likely 24 to 48) + Akincis + Kizilelma + Anka 4, that will be quite the Air Force

Not sure how reliable this source is, but its reporting an additional possible sale of 40 JF-17s for $4.2 billion https://defencesecurityasia.com/en/azerbaijan-eyes-40-jf-17-block-iii-jets-in-4-2-billion-deal-pakistans-largest-ever-fighter/

Americans are not even selling F-35s to Arabs, you think they gonna offer it to us?

Azerbaijani Air Force Su-25s participating at the Anadolu Ankası-2025 exercise

if they are showing 3 vehicles at the parade then its pretty much a done deal, they are probably conducting negotiations over the purchase as of now.

resolution is too low to tell, however there is visual evidence on the ground of Pakistani air bases, also the 2nd satellite photo looks edited, the crater quality doesn't match the overall quality of the photo. But I do agree, PAF can gain edge over Indian Air Force with J-35 purchase...

Although India lost Rafales, they revealed that Pakistani air bases are very vulnerable, Pakistan needs to heavily invest into air defense to protect strategic zones.

India managed to strike Pakistani C-130 at the airbase

cause its fake news, it was Syrian Pantsir, Armenia didn't operate any Pantsirs

Armenia didn't have Pantsir

Azerbaijani MoD posted info about Pantsir-S1M, indicating it has been accepted into service.
