If I had a penny for every time I have heard this crap from a newbie here. Some are either to blind to see the obvious or too stupid to comprehend the inevitable. Take your pick and move on

Sorry what? Russia just gave you Mi-35s and China CATIC WZ10 Attack Helicopter was rejected by the Army because it’s engine could not perform in hot and high weather. I asked the Chinese CATIC President on why could not they offer a better engine? He responded that the helicopters given for...

A team from Turkey had recently visited the US to seek third party permission for sale of the US made power plant in this helicopter to Pakistan. They were refused permission by the US officials and with the current tiff between Turkey and USA it will be very unlikely that these helicopters...

Interesting. Does anyone has any photos of the SLTA made and used by PN on Subs?

Out of the factory into the USA storage while PAKISTAN Army sits pretty with nothing here yet These ain’t coming either anytime soon as well. The engine is American and they are not willing to give Turkey third party sales permission. So Army aviation is screwed again thanks to these wise...

Really a very stupid and quite operationally revealing video by this uncouthly haired and bearded SSG operative under instructions from his superiors. SSG operatives work in shadows and when you work in shadows you are better served if enemy thinks you are dead. Cannot blame a dead guy for...

Austerity is for BLOODY CIVILIANS only, don't touch my perks - ISPR

Daudsons Armoury has an exception being one of the oldest firearms manufacturer in Pakistan. They have been at this for many years now. They have essentially copied the Singaporean AGL from early 1990's. As the story goes is that when the Singaporeans sent their 40mm AGL for trials to Pakistan...

Just three comments. 1. M1A1 Abrams had failed the desert trials it was rejected. Zia never favored the US tank 2. Gen Asif Nawaz was favoring the M84 tank that had performed marvelously during Army trials and was declared the best. T-72 was never on the cards. 3. T-80UD deal made Gen...

Because its engine and some of the electronics failed during desert high temperature trials. These tanks are built mainly for cold weather ops and its difficult to get them operational in hot weather environments. Second problem is again the Galol Mobil Oil for the engine that can only be...

Amazingly, the Polish manufacturer is not known for manufacturing the MILITARY ASSAULT BOAT required under these tenders. The brochures you have posted above from their website also does not show anywhere the required boat type. If it is a prototype, than the tender conditions specified that no...

DP Navy last week signed the contract with a Polish Company Techno Marine for purchase 14 (30 Tons) and 4 (12 Tons) Military Assault Boats for COASTAL and CREEK areas patrolling respectively

Availability of funds IS the issue. Order was under FMF. Pakistan Army depleted its FMF allocation or it got stalled by the US Government. Final payments to clear delivery of the AH-1Z are yet to be done. US asked Pakistan to use own funds of apply for a loan. Army refused to use own funds or...

Not Embargoed but simply Pakistan does not have the requisite funds to complete the procurement process

Flying Tank

I raised this point a few months ago that the AH-1Z deal has gone south mainly because of financial matters under FMF and Pakistan Army refusal to buy them under a loan or from own funds. Chickens have come home to roost now

In other words, ISPR is complaining that although we can control GEO, ARY, DUNYA, SAMAA etc etc but don't have a handle on this FB, TWITTER (which they also use), to say the things we want everyone to say and believe. Wake up ISPR, this ain't Zia or Mushy era anymore.

As per my information, steel/alloy is mainly being imported from China.

KS&EW is arrested by demands from Pakistan Navy. The DG KS&EW is a serving Admiral at the end of his tenure and devoid of independent thinking. R&D and Design Department requires out-of-the-box thinking, customer engagement, hiring top professionals in the field from civilian background, etc...

Nope. That is too small a platform and mainly designed for riverines. I have not seen any Military Assault Boat made by TechnoMarine and used by any Navy around the world. I am not sure that NHQ is equipped with such a negotiations capacity as they move on requirements on urgency basis. For...
