I guess being a bit short (not too much) also helps blood circulation while pulling high g forces, right? Here's a few more pics. Sdrn No. 11 with Sqrdn leader S.K. Kamal F-104 pilots wearing high pressure suits for upto 60,000ft T-37 IP and student (early 80s)

Why should anyone bother to provide you "sources....lets see....do YOU have any credible source or indication that they wont? The damn thing isn't even up in the air yet. Until a couple of months ago, they didn't even acknowledge it, and here you are asking for sources of whether they will...

Obama proposes $1.2 bln to aid Pakistani military WASHINGTON: U.S. President Barack Obama on Monday proposed $1.2 billion in funding next year to help train and equip Pakistani security forces to fight Taliban militants. Created by Congress last year, the Pakistan Counterinsurgency Capability...

Sorry Malay, but thats BS at its best. Russia starts inducting theirs in 2015-17 so according to you, China won't have a 5th gen plane by 2025-27? Firstly, you talk about things you know little about. Agreed China is an underdog and has bottlenecks in its aviation industry. Engines is "one...

There is. The image is what you match against. Sure, there is guidance system on board the missile. There are different ways from quite primitive to state of the art satellite guidance. Terrain contour matching algorithms are mostly used. You look at what is ahead, match it to the terrain...

Using google maps ;) On a serious note, how many countries have cruise missiles in the first place? Most countries that have Cruise missiles, also have pretty good images too using satellites. Also you can get it from third countries like India can get from US or via Israel or from...

There's a "hell of a difference" between the speed of a cruise missile and those UAV's tottering over Iraq and Afghanistan.

There is just one explanation---Where do you think Zardari got the nickname, Mr. 10%? I think this is what you are talking about. Basically, from what I understood from this statement, because of its integration of various ECM measures, it can identify potential threats and focus on...

Nabil, This is quite true. Chinese have made tremendous progress in not just avionics but everything. however, one must realize that avioncs is not just one thing but a combination of lots of things. Its possible they have reached western latest products in some but lack in other. So PAF...

Oh! for the love God please do not start a "I know what PAF's should do better than all of you" debate here. Let me ask a few question. Does anyone of you (us) know : 1. Is the UAE AF even willing to offer them? 2. How much the UAE is asking for the Mirages, assuming they are on offer...

Kharian Beast, From my knowledge, it is electronics such as mission computer, radar and missiles-- the article clearly states that electronics from Thales and missiles from MBDA. No engine negotiations are currently one except for possible up-gradation of RD-93's thrust which is very much...

As you can see, Pakistan (or rather the contract) says it will sign for 50 firm orders and 50 options. Then it says prospects go up to 400 fighters which in my opinion (and also from the article) means that pakistan will offer a "westernized" version of the fighter as opposed to China which will...

Arms: France is well placed for a Mega contract with Pakistan PARIS (Dow Jones) - Following a call for tenders, Pakistan has retained the French ATE integrator for a contract valued at more than 1 billion euros to help equip and electronics missiles between 50 and 100 fighter aircraft JF-17...

Its a well known thing that Pakistan had a chance to secure Sukhois and/or Migs form former Soviet and Soviet influenced republics. The offer wasn't a direct one from Sukhoi of Russia but second hand planes. I don't think these were advertised tendered offers so you probably won't find news...

What exactly do you think we should have done? See when MKI thing started, JF-17 specifications were upgraded. Now PAK-FA is coming, expect something to done on FC-20s. Other than that what really do you think we can do? start producing our own 5th gen fighters? The only alternative is to...

a. Mr. Zardari could care less about his own relatives let alone use his friendship or build trust in army. It all depends on the percentage being offered to him. Remember why we didn't buy the Mirages in the first place? b. see (a) above
