    LEAKED: Pakistan Army Requirements for Tender of 75,000 New 7.62x39mm Rifles (May 16, 2017)

    This is what is referred to as a COMPLIANCE MATRIX to Pakistan Army's GENERAL STAFF REQUIREMENT (GSR) as per points under PARAMETERS heading. Such a compliance matrix is submitted by the manufacturer at the start of the paper evaluation of the rifle systems. Looking at this LATE LEAK I imagine...

    Pakistan's Service Rifle (G-3, Type-56) Replacement Competition 2016.

    Nothing has happened as I predicted long ago except for perhaps in the imagination of one or two dudes here. This rifle replacement chapter for the time being is now closed.

    Pakistan Navy commandos training on a US ship

    The US Spec Op Sergeant (in his typical American accent) is simply showing/ teaching skills that are already part of CQB and ship-board hostage rescue & clearing basic training. I think this exercise is more of a goodwill gesture than a real advanced training exercise. And are US Marines (with...

    Pakistan's Service Rifle (G-3, Type-56) Replacement Competition 2016.

    Serious Time and Money (especially from rifle makers) has been wasted in these so called trials. From day 1 I had mentioned that these trials will lead no where and here we are still using G3 and Type56 from China. Enough said

    First Pakistani Army Viper Attack Helicopter Spotted

    Initial payments were made through FMF. But than for the remainder payments FMF dried up. Americans offered a 'loan' to GHQ, Bajwa refused and now GHQ is trying to muster up funds to do around 30-40% remainder payment so that the birds can be shipped. Lets see how that happens and when.

    Alcotán-100 Systems, for Pakistan

    ALCOTAN 100 program is in trouble. The purchased system is way off the accuracy scale as was claimed by the manufacturer. Initial supplied lots being with held by the Army of further distribution to units. The manufacturer INSTALAZA has asked three times for amendment in the contract calling to...

    Pakistan Navy has 2 new Swiftship corvettes on order

    Problem was that NONE of the other US major Shipyards were ready to consider Pakistan Navy's request (since 2015) to build a 75m plus Corvette. I don't know how and why Swiftships agreed (perhaps the twin Pakistan origin owners felt sorry). So lets see how this pans out in coming years.

    Pakistan Navy has 2 new Swiftship corvettes on order

    This is a US FMS aided purchase through Lockheed Martin. SWIFTSHIPS has been contracted by Lockheed Martin who is selling these boats to Pakistan under the Foreign Military Sales program. Unfortunately under FMS you cannot buy any non-US made boats and fortunately perhaps, they have also...

    Alcotán-100 Systems, for Pakistan

    Already discussed here before. It is a bad investment. No TOT, the missile container is sealed and disposable and not re-usable, If the VOSEL unit goes blink, the entire system fails at the time of firing, each sealed missile comes from Spain filling pockets of the manufacturer and the local...

    Heavy Industries Taxila Special Show 7 September 2017

    Frankly, I find these 'Military' News shows pathetic. Armed forces should be more selective in their projection on news media. Such shows mostly try to show the prowess of the 'news anchor' than highlighting the abilities of the forces. These half minded political tarnished TV anchors with zero...

    I did not see the contract for the S-400 personally but I am privy that it is being purchased from Russia as well.

    Pakistan to induct S400 and Pantsir-S1 SAM and Igla-S ManPAD Systems for Air Defence

    I think enough to say that I've personally seen the CONTRACTS for SHORADS, ESHORADS and LOMADS signed between Directorate General of Defense Purchase (DGDP) and Rosonboronexport (Russia) for the purchase of said AD systems earmarked for delivery by end of next year. That should be enough...
