Unexpected turn: Pakistani JF-17s replace Iraq’s aging F-16 fleet
Citat:In an unexpected turn of events, Baghdad has inked a deal with Islamabad after two years of diplomatic discourse to purchase their combat aircraft. As reported by The News International [Pakistan], Iraq has joined the growing list of countries, becoming the fifth nation to acquire the JF-17 Thunder fighter jets from Pakistan.
Citat:While the specifics of the deal remain confidential, it’s rumored that Iraq has acquired 12 JF-17 Thunder Block III fighters, with the price tag speculated to be around $664 million.
These new additions are set to take over from the US F-16s, currently the only type of fighter jets in Iraqi service. Unfortunately, these F-16s quickly deteriorated into a non-operational state after their handover from the US, requiring expensive repairs.
Citat:There are several reasons why Iraqi F-16s are not flying. One of the main reasons is the lack of spare parts and maintenance support. The F-16s were purchased by Iraq from the United States, and due to political tensions between the two countries, the US has been reluctant to provide Iraq with the necessary spare parts and maintenance support.
Furthermore, the F-16s are aging and require extensive maintenance to keep them operational. The Iraqi Air Force has been unable to keep up with the maintenance demands of the F-16s, which has resulted in a decrease in their operational readiness.
