Well was it given a chance for a full trial period? Just because Dassault and Thales didn't show up with flashy powerpoint presentations and fireworks doesn't mean they should be discounted, at whatever the price it's still lower than EF and with a lot more ToT than the American (and to an...

Eric Margolis continues to deliver fire, trust me he's someone worth following.

What I got from reading this article among many things is that the Indians have shown their hand which they played much too quickly and gave away the following...the MMRCA tender process, which many had predicted much earlier on, is indeed an unfair display of political favoritism that will rob...

Thanks a lot terrorists. Next time there is a cricket match in your neighbourhood, I hope PAF cluster bombs it. :angry:

Saw this on Al Jazeera and was waiting for it to pop up on here. What is not quoted on here is when the journalists went to a Brahmin landowner not far from Mahilal's village and they told her of the complaints of the Dalits. She said something along the lines of, ''They would never dare...

The MM40 variants are surface launched as opposed to air or submarine launched. The block 3 version of this variant has an improved range of 180 km via a new propulsion system, better maneuvrability and higher resilience to jamming. It borrowed technology from cruise missiles to be able to...

Flying fish with a deadly bite: naval forces await third-generation Exocet By Richard Scott There are occasions where an event in military history becomes inextricably linked to the impact of a specific weapon or equipment. For example, public recognition of the Exocet anti-ship missile...

No problem bro, join in on the discussion though it needs your input.

Enigma there is already a thread regarding the topic here : http://www.defence.pk/forums/world-affairs/25256-girl-coma-after-school-punishment-dies.html

The circus is in Mumbai, get your tickets here folks!

A little girl was punished to death in a school in India by her teachers. Why shouldn't this be discussed further ? There are a myriad of topics that can be ventured upon in a professional manner stemming from this tragedy. I did my part in condemning corporal punishment in all schools, let's...

It's only a religious issue if proven in court (let's wait and see if this case ever sees one). Knowing the Indian legal system, even if there was a bit of intolerance as an instigating factor, it will never be known. Schools in Pakistan must also go through reform and cut out this corporal...

Thanks Webmaster & Co., a job well done imo. :coffee:

I am sure it looks better than it performs but that's just a hunch.

I'm not exactly certain what has been paid, but these planes are still prone to a final approval from Congress and future sanctions.

Good point, infrastructure and pilot experience is already there. However there will come a time when PAF will have to wean itself the F-16 and now as we gear our airforce to induct many Chinese platforms, it couldn't be a better time. Plus I have so much faith in the senior pilots that I am...

Colossal failure only in strict sales and marketing terms. It is a very, very capable bird with a bright future in the ALA. Also no one is going to give you their latest developments without making you pay a hefty price. France will not just hand over tidbits for PAF to use on JF-17 or FC-20...

It would be worthwhile to scrap the Block 52 deal and replace the order with Rafale. France must be itching for a foreign market for this bird. The U.S. withheld our F-16's after taking our money in the past, well then let's screw this order and check the French out.

Doesn't matter my friend, in the end the US has been documented in doing the same thing you are accusing China of doing, whether in their own country or on islands where no law governs the land, it boils down to the same thing. Many would beg to differ, the Chinese have a wide variety of...
