No. The team built two aircraft - a helicopter and a fixed-wing plane. Both were all electric aircraft, powered by Li-Po batteries.

Didn't KRL manufacture some 'indigenous' MLRS in the 90s? If any of the guys here have some info about those, can you please share it? Or please dircet me to the correct thread/link?

While it is entirely possible that the drone was not shot down since its casing remains largely intact and the only visible damage is to the propellers, electronic warfare can not be ruled out. In case of a quadcopter/drone crash, the propellers are usually the first part to be damaged beyond...

The PakTES-1A will carry a low-to-medium resolution EO payload. The EO payload has been developed by SUPARCO in collaboration with the Space Advisory Company (SAC) of South Africa since no facilities existed in Pakistan which had the technology to develop the payload indigenously. As far the the...

It is about time that the KSEW developed this critical infrastructure which is pretty basic for a shipyard in the 21st century. The KSEW still uses 1960s infrastructure and techniques to produce ships and submarines. One has to look at the BAE Systems shipyard in Rosyth, where the Queen...

Actually, a depressed trajectory is selected to give maximum range to the missile. According to extremely basic principles of projectile motion, the angle of launch should be 45° for the range to be maximum. Pakistan does not have any known missiles of ranges longer than 2750 km (i.e. the range...

The drone probably stayed over Pakistani territory for quite some time. It must be remembered that the No. 2 Squadron is based at PAF Base Masroor, Karachi and it takes time to get from there to the area in Balochistan where this drone was purportedly shot down.

One begs to ask: How did he ever manage to get all that gold braid and those medals? What wars did he fight and which wars did he win? These are the people who ran away to India and the West while there in Afghanistan's mountains WE were fighting THEIR war. As soon as the war ended, they came...

This design looks like it is till stuck in Mughal times. Sure enough, we need to keep Islamic architecture in the argument, but modernistic values also have to be incorporated. Just look at the Aga Khan Hospital, or the Allama Iqbal International Airport, for example. And also, this is a...

Sure enough the infected hardware is causing setbacks for the North Koreans, but sooner or later they will find a way around it. A determined enemy must never be taken lightly. If a poor, impoverished country like North Korea can survive on sanctions for so long and challenge the world's...

You can never expect your enemy to be afraid of you if it does not respect you. And the actions of most Pakistani members of this forum do not warrant the provision of respect by their own countrymen, much less the enemy. Remember, the eyes of the world are on you. Each word you write is taken...

NESCOM has four major divisions: NDC Fateh Jang: ballistic missiles, GLCMs AWC Wah Cantt.: air launched weapons, ALCMs, LGBs MTC Karachi: AShMs, ASMs, boats and submarines (highly probable) PMO Taxila: UAVs As far as GIDS is concerned, it is just a 'front company of front companies'. AERO=AWC...

Iran is the friend who steals your girlfriend while seemingly trying to help you make things right with her. In short, Iran can't be trusted.

What are the specs of the HQ-9? I'm asking because it will be the logical next addition to Pakistan's Air Defense infrastructure.

In Pakistan, a glaring division exists between the mainstream industries which directly benefit the economy and population through hard foreign exchange earning and the so-called 'strategic' organizations. Whereas the mainstream industries can not even produce a TV set on their own, the...

Any idea about its launch site? I'm asking because I saw the missile's initial stage of flight from my college in Karachi. The missile seemed to have been launched from a north-westerly direction. Either way, it's a great achievement. Pakistan's strategic organizations are on a roll!

The IL-78 is a behemoth. And with its antiquated, 70s era Soviet technology is a really difficult bird to fly. A PAF IL-78 pilot said so himself in a Special Dunya News Defence Day 2015 program. Wajahat Saeed Khan 'tripped' the pilot into saying so. Lol. No wonder the PAF is upgrading them. We...

That is so profound. Reason enough to believe that we're perhaps the most resilient nation on the face of the Earth. However, my grandfather mentions frequently that when Ghulam Muhammad became the Governor-General, Nehru said, 'We've sent Ghulam Muhammad. Pakistan won't survive this decade.'...
