#1 SW: Are they buying Eurofighters to replace the F-16s or are they just surrendering their air force?

Air force? Belgium has an air force?

#2 Belgium is downsizing Air Force. To sell F-16s,they have to get US permission. Was a neat attempt to bypass Congressional ban on Pak weapons sales

#4 "âIndia is buying all sorts of weapons from the United States, Russia, South Africa, France etc., but on the other hand it was trying to prevent Pakistan from buying even the bare minimum defence requirements,â Khan said."

Bwahahahahahahahaha!! Mommy, Mommy they won't play fair.

Unlike the terrs Pakis, India is not a war mongering nation. Nor will it sell its technology to terrs countries like Iran or Saudi Arabia. There is a huge difference in military intentions, regarding both countries.

"Are they buying Eurofighters to replace the F-16s or are they just surrendering their air force?"

Yes, they are replacing the F-16's with chocolate covered Eurofighters.
