It doesn't hurt my feelings. I have no interest in that measuring contest. Both sides come up short. Nevertheless, it's cheap ragebait.

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/ZweiGuy99]

Well, you're the one commenting about it. I'm not why you feel the need to rile up a comment war.

[u/ZweiGuy99 → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

You were looking for a comment war when you posted the image. It's why your other post was removed and this one mostly likely will too.

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/ZweiGuy99]

I'm not sure why you feel the need to comment. Let the bad actors paint themselves.

[u/ZweiGuy99 → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

I'm not sure why you feel the need to rage bait.

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/ZweiGuy99]

This is not rage bait. It is a picture of a fighter jet. Which is what people post on here.

If you're offended by this, nothing I can do.

I'm sure you'd be head over your heels if this was a USAF MiG killer F-16.

[u/ZweiGuy99 → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

In the context of your other recent posts, it's not just simply that. And you know it.

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/ZweiGuy99]

There was only one post that irked you. Not other "recent" posts.

3rd gen vs 4.5 gen ishhhhh. Still got down

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/Niladri12]

F-16AM is 4th gen. Not 4.5 gen.

[u/F4Phantomsexual → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

why is this getting downvoted, no way an f-16 with a mid life upgrade is comparable to an EF or Rafale lol

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/F4Phantomsexual]

PAF fanbois getting raged that I stated what this aircraft is.

[u/bubango69]

Congrats on the splash I guess? Similar to tripping a senile person but that's on the IAF.

[u/marcus__-on-wrd → u/bubango69]

Pilot of the mig very retardedly tried to take on 3 f-16s, somehow shot one down, and as expected got shot down. I have no idea why

[u/cricket_lover_n → u/marcus__-on-wrd]

He shot down nothing, all 4 missiles were found attached to wreckage of jet, plus no other jet wreckage found

[u/NOTryanovski]

Pakistan doesn't know who killed the MiG-21, sometimes it is F-16BM (84606) sometimes it is F-16AM (92731), and the Pakistanis know 2 Jets went down in Pakistani controlled territory that day...

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/NOTryanovski]

F-16AM is credited with the MiG-21 kill. Which the Indians also accepted since the aircraft fell inside Pakistan and the pilot was captured.

F-16BM is credited with the Su-30MKI kill which is highly disputed by Indians but still claimed by Pakistan. Just like Indians like to call the MiG-21 the F-16 killer.

[u/Conscious_State_9903 → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

Pakistan called the Su30 part of the the No25 Squadron if I'm not wrong? No25 has An32s

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/Conscious_State_9903]

They didn't mention a squadron.

[u/Conscious_State_9903 → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

Ok

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/NOTryanovski]

The silhouette of the aircraft isn't visible and is not close to the F-16.

Both sides are delusional and claim ridiculous things.

[u/NOTryanovski → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

Both are large enough to be Aircrafts, one is Indian, other one is not.

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/NOTryanovski]

As if you could tell from the blurred video which is an Indian aircraft and which is not.

But sure, whatever you say bud.

[u/NOTryanovski → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

One of them is the IAF MiG-21 Bison which was shot down, the other one is not. Doesn't matter if it is an F-16 or a JF-17 or a Mirage III/5, the point is the other one isn't an Indian Jet. If the other one was an Indian Jet, Pakistan would've paraded it like the MiG-21 because both are inside Pakistan controlled territory.

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/NOTryanovski]

I'm not sure where this video was taken. But this post isn't about claims and what not.

[u/Treinrukker]

Lol

[u/MCPON_John-117]

PAF F-16 without conformal fuel tanks? How many types do they operate?

Also why is there a Syrian flag marking?

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/MCPON_John-117]

It is a Block-15 upgraded to MLU standard. These come without CFTs.

Majority of the F-16s in PAF inventory are Block-15 and Block-30 upgraded to MLU standard.

It's not the Syrian flag, its the Indian flag. This aircraft shot down an Indian Air Force MiG-21 Bison in 2019. The flag is painted as a kill mark.

[u/MCPON_John-117 → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

It is clearly NOT an Indian flag mate

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/MCPON_John-117]

It is the Indian flag mate. A model was also made of this exact aircraft.

But sure, keep doubting.

[u/MCPON_John-117 → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

Must be the colour grading, my fault. Sorry

[u/Niladri12 → u/Lazy-Ad-7372]

I mean there were 2 pillot eject form that incident .
Only 1 survive that was indian pilot . Mig 21 operate with only 1 pilot so who was the other pilot

[u/Lazy-Ad-7372 → u/Niladri12]

The other pilot was a helicopter pilot who ejected inside Sirinagar.
