Chinese warning ministry at work...they are doing their job...let them do it.

I still think the F 16 will be a very good replacement for the Mig 27s and the Jaguars. Gripen has too many components that are American made. The spares for the F 16 can be gotten in grey markets which would be difficult if the Gripen is chosen in case of sanctions. Anyways the F 16s are going...

Well F 16s will be replacing the MiG 21s and the MiG 27s in the future...that is like the lowest end of our fighter contingent. It wont even be in the frontline units i guess. The F 16 is much better suited for that role in Indian airspace.

The first message was posted in 2016.

Wow going back from Bull Pup design to the conventional design.

Well the fight is for a replacement of MiG 21. The F 16 or Gripen if selected will be in the lowest end of the Fighter hierarchy of the IAF. If the IAF is going for the F 16 or Gripen then I guess investment into the LCA MK2 is utter nonsense. We must divert the funds and manpower to AMCA and...

What can turkey and Iran offer to Russia?

That guy is a critic...he could have boasted about Long March but did not...rather congratulated us. just relax. If we were a part of the P5 we could have accomplished more. Nut we are not....so this is an achievement for u. lets celebrate it till we get the ULV.

I absolutely second that. But no foreign investments are allowed into the state.

Yes the Jaguars are active and are being upgraded with the AESA radars for maritime strike.

Nope i guess....

Well so you are going to set up toll plazas enroute? So maintainance is also an integral part of the project so what are the norms and who is going to shell out for the maintenance is it you or the Chinese? well and I thought up that 15% interst as the Chinese banks had negotiated around 4 to 5%...

So you think you can pay off the 15% interest rate every year?...I am not an economist but i still have my doubts about how Pakistan is going to pay it off. And Chinese people always dont hire the locals to do their work...they prefer their own people working in these projects and companies...

Well yes the AL 31 is too complex, but costs much less than P&W F100. That is the reason why the WS 10 engine was created. But Turbofan engine technology concept is much more simple but the basic sciences like metallurgy and physics must be reinvented. For the cost of a single P&W F 100 you can...

We dont need 6 80 000 ton carriers in our arsenal right now...3 is more than enough. We are not fighting the USN or even dreaming to do it in our back yard. I still think even 6 is less for you. Well i want to see which country people know the 'truth' the one which has access to all the search...

We dont need to invade but we need to thwart any invasion if it takes place.

That is why I asked you to go and ask one of those experienced pilots out there in your airforce about it. You will not believe me anyways because of my nationality.

I think we can get back to the topic of PAKFA/FGFA. The expertise of Russia far outweighs most of the countries in aviation design and development. No one can deny it. And I think that $135 million a piece is a bang for the buck. And if you go and ask a general for a choice if he would fly a...

No man you are wrong. Chinese wanted a carrier of 65k tonnage and we wanted a 40k tonnage. the negotiations for Gorshkov started when Chinese bought the Varyag for 20 million dollars. And We were under sanctions for Nuclear weapons those days. We have a pace of acquisition that would put shame...

Well the reason is the vast expanse of the Russian mainland. They need a lot of fuel to patrol the huge region that extends from pacific to the baltic and the artic to Asia minor. So they need a lot of fuel. They pioneered air to air refuelling concept in the 50s. That is why they needed to have...
