@KingOfFreeWorld Sadly the T-6B Texan II needs LONG RUNWAYS; a STOL SAAB Supporter that can land anywhere and be ground-mobile in BATTLEBOXes would be better, but we'll take any manned O/A aircraft progress we can get!
@dynmicpara you are so right with the long landing part and I belive thats what makes the MFI-17 better in the other hand T-6B T II is more famouse and thats in my ipenion makes it better
just wait some indian will pop up here and say the usual. Go to hell you porki, i love my india... just wait tick tock tick tock... come on come on where ever you are
Pakistan produces these aircraft indigenously, with its own version - the Super Mushahak. It can even carry a light load of weapons believe it or not.
Lovely little plane! Much more characterful and capable than other types such as the UK Firefly. Saab may not have anything more to do with it but in Pakistan it continues to thrive! Long live it!!!
just for fact: MFI-17 Mushshak new model is "super Mushshak"
Army Co-operation Missions
Besides primary flying training, the Super Mushshak is also suited for a wide range of army co-operation missions including: -/ Forward air control/ Forward area support with droppable supply containers/ Reconnaissance /Artillery Fire Observation/ Camouflage inspection /Border patrol/liaison
YES, we are sure. Want to sell us some MFI-17s? Imagine how much better a MFI-17 O/A with a pilot/observer that can see/investigate would be than a Predator UAV that just pipes back video to a TV screen. We could send back video on top of having men on the scene ready to act.
What is this beautys cost? Does it have short landing takeoff capability?

Why not just use the JPATS? This is better than the MFI-17 in my opinion...

JPATS (T-6 Texan II) needs a long runway, MFI-17s don't.

I think Pakistan sold some to Iran a while back.
