J-31 are not coming before a Decade. In mean while you do need something as a Stop Gap.
Idea is to Purchase Less Numbers of Capable Platform to Boost over all Capability of Airforce.
We don't need to buy Big numbers.
2 Squardons of JH-7B, 24-30 Su-35 will prove Very Vital and act as a Perfect...
About Some Mirages I have said in Particular !
Not about whole fleet !
And their are countries who want to have cheaper Birds for Some sort of Air Defense.
Again I would absolutely Agree with @MastanKhan . People here should do some research about JH-7B, its different as compare to JH-7A. One member also raised Concern on its Radar. Well PAF can get better Radar if it want. When ever We Purchase anything from China, we do give it Modernization By...
Mirages and Most F-7s are now History. We should Get Rid of them as Quickly as Possible. Only F-7 PGs will remain with PAF for sometime as they are relatively Newer and have better performance.
Regarding Mirages, The Machines Have Crossed their Last Point of Deliverance.
So its Better to...
You are talking about JH-7A, where as JH-7B is a different beast. If still PAF/PAC/PN not got satisfied with its Radar. It can be replaced by some other capable Radar. And when ever PAF Purchases anything from China, They always do its Western Modernization. Even JF-17 Thunder has Western...
Well I think we should not waste money on J-10Bs as Thunder has more or less similar Capabilities. We need Airsuperiority Fighter + Strike Aircraft/Bomber at the moment. JH-7B will be ideal as it will not cost more than 20 Million USD. If we want something Better than it, Su-34 will be the Best...
This Beauty can also be considered for a Strike Aircarft considering PAF . Cost is relatively low. Offers Great Capability + Payload + Hardpoints + PESA Radar + HMDs + EW ! Anything you want !
Good Choice for PAF/PN both.
#SU-34
Well It would be better if PAF Purchases 2 Squadrons of JH-7B. Cost is also low, Fighter Capability for Striking Back at enemy is also Great. Can also carry Pods.
Even for Navy's Requirement this Aircraft is Great.
I don't know why PAF/PN has never shown interest towards it !
It provides Good...
Hey Man, Concentrate on your own Business. Don't create Fuss Around !
What we have done or What we haven't has nothing of your Concern !
Go and Inspect Failures of Tejas and Arjun !
Well This topic has Given Indians Something to Smile at. Its Not a Negative Title nor a Negative Discussion against PAF. Its infact a very Constructive discussion. It would be better if Indian Members Concentrate on Tejas. We have to admit whats getting wrong. But I guess its Indians who need...
I Think you are underestimating J-31 :)
Even Pentagon has expressed its Concerns on J-20 and J-31 !
Wait for them to come into Production line.
They surely have alot to stun their Opponents :)
Right but you also need Airframe Modification, Extra Payload Caring Capability and Atleast 9...
I was wondering that is it possible that PAF/PAC takes Assistance from Mig Corporation Regarding JF-17 Thunder Block 3 and Block 4 ?
It will be valuable if get some sort of Input from them in This Jet !
Secondly sooner this Bird is Changed to Medium MRCA, the better it will be for PAF. Extra...
We are stuck in same F-16s but their are alot more potent and capable platforms emerged out there.
I am not questioning the Capabilities of F-16, It has ruled the Skies for many years but That era is Over now.
We should move forward to look for more potent Heavy Duty Fighter Jets.
Regarding...
Guys can it be possible that PAF could get the Assistance of Mig Corporation in the development of Block 3 or Block 4. And what will be the Effect on its Performance if we place a TVC Engine on it ?
Besides I absolutely Agree with @MastanKhan 's Point of View. People are saying that JF-17...
Its rather strategy which makes one achieve impossible not the $s !
Means the Point he has Raised in particular about JH7B for Striking Back at Enemy is a very Vital one. This Aircraft not only Gives you Decent Payload, but also is equipped with some Modern Goodies and can be enhanced as per...
