Pakistan F-16 Misuse

The United States reprimanded Pakistan Air Force chief in August for misusing F-16 fighter jets by undermining their shared security platforms and infrastructures, a media report in Washington has said, months after the Indian Air Force shot down an F-16 jet of the Pakistan Air Force during an aerial combat over Jammu and Kashmir.

India has shared its concerns with the US on use of defence systems exported to Pakistan being used in "offensive action" against it, informed sources said in New Delhi and noted that Washington could publicly clarify the issue in the coming days.

The United States is "very closely" following the reports that highlight how Pakistan misused US-made F-16 fighter jets against India in the recent aerial confrontation between the air forces of the two countries, a top official of the US State Department has said.

The US is seeking more information from Pakistan on the potential misuse of American-made fighter jets F-16 by it against India in violation of the end-user agreement, the State Department has said.
