F-6 "Farewell F-6" skin

This scheme was painted on an F-6 in colours to symbolise the China-Pakistan friendship, during the F-6's retirement ceremony from PAF service at Samungli AB .

The ceremony actually served three purposes; to mark the retirement of the F-6, to welcome the F-7PG into service, and to celebrate the Sino-Pak friendship. The PAF began to rely on China for new technologies after the 1965 India-Pakistan War, when the US suspended its military aid to both countries. India turned to Russia for its arms support, while the F-6 became the first tangible evidence of Pakistan's relationship with China.
