Precisely. In simple words, we need multiple routes for electricity to travel between the north and south of the country. But the fault lies with previous govts specially the idiot Noonies who went on a spree to increase generating capacity without improving the transmission and distribution...

I am lol. I'm sure there are many more up here on PDF. Please put forward your TECHNICAL questions.

Apparently Guddu Thermal developed a fault and caused the frequency in the main grid to drop to 0 Hz. This tripped all power plants across the country. Even a frequency drop from 50 Hz to 49.5Hz can cause plants to trip. This exposes the lack of redundancies and obsolescence of our grid...

I'm sorry to bruise your ego even further, but even that is about to end. The fact that we imported typhoid, snake venom antiserum and rabies vaccines from India was because of limited local capacity thanks to the incompetence and treason of our former rulers (your dearest uncle Nawaz Sharif)...

It would be a great tragedy if the only result of this Azm MALE UCAV project is a system in the league of the CH-4. But, since PAC is PAC, we must keep an open mind and expect this to happen.

This is most likely what we call an SDM (scaled-down model). I'm aware of this design methodology being adopted in a similar project for the armed forces. If you remember, the PAC tendered the requirement for FPGAs, communication hardware and other equipment which was to be used for the...

And 4-5 years down the line, we can expect to add 50 Block-IIIA's to the current fleet. For a total of approximately 260 BVR-capable fighters and a network-centric capability that is battle-tested and in a cycle of continuous improvement, the PAF will maintain the upper hand and would remain...

We need a Chief of Defence Staff and centralized services HQ to coordinate across all three branches, the strategic forces and military intelligence services. The current Army-dominated arrangement is not sustainable.

The blood and tears have not been in vain. We are headed on the right track. Just think. If even 10% of the brilliant patriots that left the country come back as Dr Moeed Yusuf has done. We'd be unstoppable.

Even the recent understanding and consequent inclusion of SMEs in the defence establishment is merely a cosmetic move. Real administrative, financial and technical decision-making authority still remains with the uniformed overlords. This is a seriously demotivating factor for the professional...

All of these were political appointees and the typical chai samosa types who went to work everyday in PSM buses (the govt still paying for expensive transportation) and then lounged about all day drinking tea and gossipping. Pathetic old sods who should be grateful that previous incompetent...

This is what happens when key officials associated with classified government programs are clearly identified in the media. All the more reason for people on online platforms like Pakistan Defence to refrain from sharing absolutely any information which they may have about programs...

The one key takeaway I have from my work experience is that there is an extreme lack of general understanding and technical competence regarding cyber threats among military circles. All precautions taken are just surface level jobs (not having USB ports on PCs, firewalls, etc) There is no...

Lt Gen Asif Ghafoor for IG C & IT is a good choice since the general also spearheaded the techological transformation of ISPR. Hopefully he will transform the PA's C4I infrastructure and bring it to another level. @PanzerKiel does the IG C & IT lead the C4I directorate of the Army? If it's not...

Everyone is lamenting at how the choice of the DG ISI to lead this organization is disastrous. However, this phenomena can not be looked at in isolation. The military lot in security services ('The Establishment') is not growing in influence as a result of itself. It is growing because there...

Karachi is going to be the pivot of all terrorist activity in Pakistan going forward. We are entering a critical phase of our war against terrorist outfits/proxies/sleepers in which the Pakistani state is bent on consolodating the gains of Zarb-e-Azb and Radd-ul-Fasad and our enemies are...

This screenshot that has been shared in OP simply represents the list of senior air officers of the PAF with their positions and dates of retirement. The July 2027 date represents the date of retirement of the officer in question who is officiating as the CPD of the F-16 project - basically...

This isn't the United States and no, we haven't been developing an SLV in secret using digital engineering principles. SUPARCO is another example of a lumbering bureaucratic behemoth led by uncreative and inept military men who neither have the drive not vision to undertake challenging projects...

To all those shouting at PM IK and his government for only now 'exposing' Indian involvement in Pakistan should shut up. Don't you remember NS and his cronies? They sold Pakistan to the devil. Not a word of condemnation was ever said by these pathetic characters and India was never mentioned as...

Here's to hoping that the Noonis and their Indian masters never learn from their extremely stupid mistakes.
