ISLAMABAD, Oct 2: The ongoing negotiations for the purchase of F-16s jets have culminated in the signing of a letter of acceptance between the governments of Pakistan and the United States.
The package includes 18 new F-16s, upgraded used F-16s, upgradation of the present fleet of PAF F-16s, air-to-air and air-to-ground weaponry and other support infrastructure, an official press release said here on Monday.
Pakistan had earlier put off signing the letter of acceptance after complaints from its air force that the planes were “bereft” of vital electronic warfare systems.
