The funniest part of F-16 counting drama is that no one from Pakistan said a thing or even leaked a thing when actual counting was going on. This is quite unbelievable given them posting every nitty gritty of the entire saga. And when an article quoting anonymous sources comes out, every one in Pakistan establishment wakes up saying they are vindicated by the report as if the counting happened without them even knowing about it.
Yep. Even before HindustanTimes broke the story about Pentagon spokesperson denying any count, I theorized similarly that no count had taken place.
There was a huge incentive for Pakis to clamor about the said invite to count and the counting itself...........as they might fear that US might just keep mum after the count (given their frayed relationship)

Meanwhile on peedee eff, they are continuously peddling their usual lies. These are not just brainwashed zealots, but pathological liars and narcissists at the same time.

There are lot of items in Pakistan whose prices have inflated by manifolds.

But I don't think its going to hurt the morale of their people. Unlike India where things are normal besides elections, Pakistanis are actually feeling heat and bothered Indo Pakistani confrontation. They know they are locked in a war. So, they will tolerate this all and stand with their state.

Lockheed Martin, the manufacturer of the F-16, said the company had not received any contact from Pakistan over the F-16. “Usually, the original equipment manufacturer is immediately contacted when their aircraft goes down. However, there was no inquiry sent from Pakistan,” a senior official said. “This adds further credence that no F-16 was lost.”

Hahahaha are you serious. Pakistan is trying to hide that they have lost an F-16 and you think they are going to tell the OEM? Why will they inform the OEM - so as to cash out the extended warranty?

Cmon mean, I’m sure you don’t buy that nonsense and logic. Let alone whether an F16 was shot down be, why on earth would Pakistan contact LM if it wasn’t a regular crash and if the territory of crash was not somewhere where the location needs to be determined.

Where is the second and third pilot caught by Pakistanis? Million dollar question. Un-replied so far. Gafoor Sahab ke muh par taala kyon lag gaya. Agar wo dusre aur teesre pilot ko dikha de ham maan lenge ki unka F-16 taiyyara nahi maar giraya gaya hai. So simple.

All four of the AAMs carried by Abhi's Mig 21 Bison appears to be accounted for, which would imply that he couldn't have fired one at the PAF F 16, supposedly downed by him.How you folks gonna explain this??

It is pretty clear the last two missiles on the right are the same missile rearranged to look like two.

Even if that were to be true,where did they manage to obtain the second IIR seeker from if Abhi had in fact managed to fire off one R73 as has been claimed??

Dude, look at the quality of image provided by the Pakis, it screams deception. Compare this with the image of the AMRAAM missile provided by India, it showed the serial numbers clearly visible.
Obviously this image has been tampered, low quality imagine provided to hide the actual serial number of the missiles.
Something is terribly wrong with this pic dude.

From the Wreckage of the F-16, as simple as that. The first IR seeker looks pretty fucked up.

Well, that's a valid point and not that it escaped my mind either.I'm just trying to clear up this whole damn situation in my mind with as little possibility for any kind of doubt and confusion while maintaining as much neutrality as is humanly possible.

Well, that's not outside the realm of possibility, could also be due to impact upon crash.In any case, we've all seen the video of two chutes opening up at some distance apart, so it's quite likely that PAF lost one of their air craft.
