I would like to add few points. 1. The service life of an fighter aircraft depends mainly on a. Aging of airframe b. Engine condition. Engine can be easily changed, but airframe service life is more or less 10K hours. So, if it crossed 10k hours then no airforce will upgrade.
Every thing is possible if you have passion. Mirage has unique aerodynamic shape but you can modify it by precise calculation so it cone easily customize in geometrical shape without the damage of air friction and you can install ESSA radar if you can do otherwise we have much excuses. Mirage has powerful engine thats make it different with other aircraft. In maximum thrust you can gain two mac speed which make it still faster aircraft. Body shape provide it to carry heavy load that why it consider as a boambar aircraft. It extra ordinary Wings make it low altitude flight. It is a trophy and piece of marvel. Slightly modification it will be equal with Rafael. PAC can do easily.
For perspective please note that US B52 bombers were inducted into the USAF in 1955. They have been extensively upgraded accordingly over the years, and continue to faithfully serve USAF in it's specialized role as the intercontinental conventional and nuclear delivery heavy bombers. Remember US defense budget has no constraints, money is never an issue, and USAF gets virtually anything it desires. If they have kept these birds around for all of these decades, that's because they are still useful to USAF in their nich role, all the while still inducting new stealth fighters and bombers. So mirages can be upgraded with newer and better avionics, defensive equipments and latest standoff weapons indefinitely in their specialized role as the ground strike, and interceptors.
PAF has invested a lot in this machine. So there's a chance... maybe some of the Mirages maybe integrated with some new weapon (complete modification is not possible). Moreover, J10C are replacing it.
Finally it's time to replace Mirage 3/5 ROSE I, II and III. It's immediate successor Mirage F1 is now operational in only 1 or 2 countries (Iran with ex Iraqi aircrafts and maybe Morocco) all the rest of the F1 operators have retired it at least 20 years ago. Countries are nowadays even in process of replacing their Mirage 2000'-5's, as French Dassualt Aviation has stopped it's production line a decade ago and already being replaced from the French Armie de le Air and Marine National. Aur yaha hamarey awam Mirage ko ek aur upgrade deney ki baat kar raha hai! Nope! this time it's not gonna happen and by 2030 we'll only see this delta wing aircraft as monuments on streets and in museums. In Sha Allah. Time for Thunders and Dragons to take the place.
Mirage is a very good air craft , still it can be used for ground attack in Afghanistan and Iran, this air craft can easily protect our western border and ground forces .
Mirage 3 ko upgrade karna bilkul possible ha. Israel ne bohat upgrades ki theen. South Africa ne bhi Atlas Cheetah k naam se upgrade kia tha. Israel aur South Africa k mirage 3 asal mirage se kia gunah ziada advance ha. South Africa ne to Mirage 3 per kilimov RD33 engine bhi laga dia tha.
I Watch all Your Videos. Your videos are world class .Information Provided by you is very much accurate .Also I Really like the way you describe things direct to the point not like other youtubers who keep on repeating same thing just to lenghten the video. Keep up the good work .
Unless the Mirages are replaced 1:1 by a new aircraft, I doubt PAF will retire these SIXTY year old airframes. Why? Recent wars have tended to be prolonged. The size of the Airforce is important to sustain war effort. So reducing number of planes and pilots is not advisable. PAF did a great job keeping squadron strenght high during 90s and the naughties. It is even more important now with a new globak war at our doorsteps. Mirages can play a 3rd tier role to deliver bombs on ground forces after Air Superiority is achieved. Alternately Mirages can be used to attack ground targets in high risk missions preservong higher tech assests like J10, Thunders, F16s. So unless every Mirage can be replaced by a JF17, Mirages serve useful purpose. If an upgrade helps reduce operational cost etc, then yes an upgraded Mirage makes sense. Whatever course PAF decides it will take into consideration the cost benefit analysis. Mirage no longer bring capabilities to PAF that it can't use J10 or JF17 or F16s. So it is only useful because of ground attack role, existong fleet and infrastructure, and the large number of pilots it supports.
*(Head Wobble) oooohhh noo nooo Saaar squadron 51 was made inactive because we Indians decided that they were just too good to use. We are very old civilization and we like to play fair.*
It's time to bid farewell to the finest jet that protected Pakistan's aerial frontiers for decades. Now it's airframe is too old and frail. Any more upgrades can never make it a formidable jet given the fast-changing aerial warfare technology.
and we will end up paying for new aircrafts --- need to spend money on schools and education as their pilots and our top brass will settle abroad to enjoy their retirement while the common and illiterate will sing patriotic songs on empty stomach
Hm Pakistani ha jugar lgany me bhtreen we can build a rocket with petrol and nuts 😅 we have brain to perform these kinda miracles with 100 percent efficiency Pakistan zindabad Pakistan army zindabad Pakistan air force zindabad 💪🏻
Mirages are already too outdated now they will hopefully will be retired max by 2028 as they are now used for ground attacks only not for air engagements
Bro some Indian youtubers are saying Jf17s rader is useless. Air cooled AESA rader is a joke . Please make a video on jf17s rader and electric warfare capability
While you take note of what your enemy is saying about your weapons, but keep in mind their ulterior motives. They want to demean and disparage Jf17s for vanity reasons. Truth about Jf17s is otherwise.
Pakistan has sealed a deal of 5th generation J 31 stealth fighter jets with China. PAF will acquire a total of 100 units out of which 40 are about to reach. One unit costs US$ 85mln. That means it's about US$ 11 billion deal. This is huge. Undear Lindus, Forget thinking about mirage upgrades, start worrying about J 31 deal 😂
Plus max mirage is a 3rd generation fighter jet 😂why Pakistan will spend money on a 3rd generation fighter When Pakistan already have JF17 block 3 plus now J10C Pakistan will focus on them plus the 5th generation fighters
Mirage Air crafts were inducted into Pakistan Air Force in 1967. Pakistan have large number of Mirages, all Air crafts purchased latest were used cannibalism purpose.
In these years Pakistan should have copied their Engines of mirages and should have at least copied the Body, But Alas! too lazy or to say Hudharam to do this, China has done this with Russian jets without their permission.,
For an aircraft that has conveniental controls and not fly by wire to make it have an AESA radar is hilarious to say the least. These deltas have lived there life we need there replacement ASAP...
1st flight 1967 me UK me li thi. Hmne first batch ka order1978 me diya aur phir 1990 aur 2000 me 2 batch licensed produced kiye. Uske spare parts India me hi bnte h aur source code bhi tha hmre paas so AESA radar integrate kr paaye.. Wo bhi 60 jaguar me jo 2000 me order kiye the. Baaki 60 me airframe life nhi bachi thi.
@@ahmedkhan-bi8lv PAF ne jo mirage 3/5 90s me liye the wo already second hand the.. Usme se mostly use ho gye fleet sustain krne me.. Kyonki mirage 3 ki production 1980s me hi stop ho gyi thi. Hmne new jaguar k batch jo 2000 me order kiye the uski hi life aadhi bachi h.

@@aamerjamal aapki baat sahi hai lekin JF-17 thunder ko dedicated ground attacks k liye effectively use kiya ja sakta hai or jitni payload capacity mirages ki hai utni hi Thunder ki b hai is liye mera nahi khayal PAF aisa kuch karegi. Puri dunya me PAF ko ye aizaz hasil hai k wo sab se behtarin decision leti hai wo b time pad
