ISLAMABAD - Pakistan and Iraq has signed a land mark defense agreement in Baghdad for defense cooperation under which Pakistan would provide twelve MFI- Mushaq trainer aircraft and twelve JF- Thunder Block III fighter jets to Iraqi Air Force.

Credible sources in PAF told The Nation that agreement for 1.8 billion USD deal reached during talks between visiting Pakistan Air Force Chief Air Chief Marshall Zaheer Ahmed Babar and his counterpart in Iraqi Ministry of defense.

Very intriguing, so no F16s for barter? Were they let go by PAF?

Would be interested to know more about the deal, how Iraq is going to pay? In $ or trade in with oil.

Pakistan is in dire need of foreign exchange and oil. More Block-52+ F-16s with older mechanically scanned radar at the moment, may not be the priority. Maybe when the economy stabilizes a bit more,

That doesn't make any sense, the PLAAF doesn't use JF-17s. It's an export aircraft.
A year or two ago... ROCAF FCK-1 flew inside Philippine EEZ/ADIZ ... Philippines had planes over there too...took videos... presented it to the public as "Chinese" !
In other words...Staged by both ROC and PH+U$ !
RQ-180 flew over the skies of Sorsogon... Philippine Gov-Military & MSM falsely insinuated it as "Chinese stealth bomber" !

Not exactly sure what your point is, but visual identification made it pretty obvious who the aircraft belonged to then, just like it would for a hypothetical JF-17. Sensationalism doesn't change what aircraft look like.

Nope .
It wasn't a JF-17 per still image (screen capture) presented by the AFP ... Furthermore, they pretending not knowing where it was heading to and forth ...even MSM was on the sham (eg. focusing only on the Gov civilian aviation authority to "ask" about the FCK-1)
From last year ...Staged "overshadow" incident involving 2 FA-50 and (2) propeller aircrafts... both flown afar to one another in order to prevent identification even with zoom-in function... presented to the public as "Chinese" !

Ok....but that is all media sensationalism. None of that has anything to do with buying aircraft. If they want to make up stories they don't even need to wait for any JF-17.
