Timeline
He wished to see the PAF truly transitioning into the 21st century along with procurement of essential hardware and development of infrastructure.
His motto for the PAF was To-do-more-with-less and build PAF as a lean, very efficient and hard hitting Air Force.
Towards these objectives, he launched a massive drive to bring the entire working/functioning of the PAF online and fully integrated.
Procurement of new generation F-16s (Block-52), Spada SAMs, Chinese AWACS, Swedish AEW&C, locally upgraded/maintained and operationalized Air Defense system, Retrieval of Peace Gate-IV F-16s from the USAF, complete upgradation of older F-16 fleet to most modern version, procurement of highly potent Beyond Visual Range AAMs along with host of other weapons from the US, High Tech Simulators, induction and local manufacturing capability of UAVs, a highly versatile Automated Inventory Management System and local manufacturing of Block-1 of the JF-17 weapon system were some of the major inductions that were contracted by him and in due course inducted in the PAF.
