Are those really PAF S-211s? Nice pics Sir AZKAL! :thumb:

No Gun pods or M260 Rocket launchers? Just unguided bombs... what if there's any hostile birds in the air or any kind of threats? :dunno:

Just a Q, WHY NO GUN PODS, S.CAM, or Anything?

What's the point of patrolling the area without all these? If ever there was any kind of activity to respond or threat, will they just have to go back to base and then re-arm n back to the area??? :dunno: That's just waste of flight hours, fuel, time & Money!
Unless it's a training exercise..... But still they can "hit two birds with one stone" to save time and money like (Training exercise + patrolling) right? :armyroleyes:

At least "Gun pods" should be installed at all times especially if they are playing the role of the F5s...... They should always be armed!

very nice pics. this S 211s looks better than the OV 10 Broncos. We need to buy more of this S 211s and look for other sources affordable to our budget like other countries who have excess in their inventory like in Central Asia, in eastern Europe, etc. and then the PAF can modestly upgrade them and these are for example; Mig 29s, SU 27 or 31, F18, F16 or F15s, etc. we need to keep on looking for better deals.

What unguided bombs are you talking about?

I see none on the S211s in the pics posted by AZKALS.
