    Notes

    FAP
    MiG-29SE fitted for R-77E
    MiG-29S fitted for R-27R/T
    Mirage 2000E fitted for Super 530D and Magic II along with French PGMs
    Mirage 5P fitted for Magic II
    Su-25K fitted for R-60MK
    Su-22M fitted for R-60MK

    Peru lost the Cenepa valley air war with Ecuador in 1996 before it got it's Mig-29s and Su-25Ks. It lost 4 planes (Su-22 and A-37) in dogfights, and several more to SAMs (Blowpipe) and held back it's Mirage 2000EPs.

    FACH
    F-5E fitted for Python 4 and use M-2032 radar
    Mirage 50s can carry Magic II or Python 3 and use M-2032 radar
    Mirage 5s carry Magic II
    All thier Mirages have canards


    I would say now the FAP has the edge but the F-16s could wiht ease change things.


    Any comments?

    hehe, chile hasn't fought a war in like a hundred years..

    Last time they did, Bolivia ended up with no coast line.

    And yeah, the FAP looks like it has the edge big time.

        If it all hinges on Air Supremecy, then it'll be the Air Force who's pilots take more risks and pushes the envelope to achieve the mission objective
