Pakistan Air Force - PAF received three F-16

Introduction PAF F-16A block 15 #84705 showing off the typical Pakistani camouflage scheme. Pakistan has ordered a total of 111 F-16A/B aircraft. Of these, 71 were embargoed by the US due to Pakistan's nuclear weapons program. Of these 71, 28 were actually built but were flown directly to the AMARC at Davis-Monthan AFB for storage. Over the years, various plans were conceived for these 28 aircraft: Pakistan wanted to get the aircraft or their money back; they were offered to various nations, none of which were interested; ultimately, the US Navy and USAF entered them into service as aggressor aircraft.

Ultimately an order for 18 F-16s was placed with an option on another 18. Inventory Peace Gate I Pakistani F-16A #82702 over the Indus river, near Attock. Note the standard PAF F-16 color sche...
