India gives proof to US on Pakistan’s use of F-16

US keeping close watch on F-16 use by Pak: India favours giving 'time' for probe

Pakistan has yet again walked into a vicious cycle created by use of F-16 fighter jets against India during and now an US investigation is on. Official sources in Delhi said they are “sure” that Washington was carrying out a thorough investigation into the use of the US-manufactured fighter as well as the missile on board it in the offensive operation against India. The US administration has said that America is seeking more information from Pakistan on the potential misuse of American-made F-16 fighter jets by it against India in violation of the end-user agreement. Things like serial number, the name of the company …..everything is with the US. On this backdrop, sources said New Delhi has ‘given proof’ to Washington about the use of F-16 fighters. “The fact that Pakistan has to resort to tactics and alleging that the missile came from a Taiwanese inventory and the Taiwan government clearly putting a denial simply indicate the desperation that Pakistan is facing,” the source said.
