I think that this is being developed by some special weapons engineering labs at Golra. HIT specialists may be deputed at Golra to assist in tank chassis integration etc
The other day I was driving past Golra that I saw an Army tank hauler with a chassis of an old T-59 having a 16 MBRL system on its top. What a wonderful idea to have against any projected cold start of the Indians. The rockets are stored in the tank hull (I would presume they should have a...
I concur with that. PAF SSW has recommended the SCAR-H for replacement of its rather bulky FN2000. But the problem is that the new administration at GHQ at this time is not too keen to progress with the purchase knowing that funds from Finance Ministry are not forthcoming. Lets see how long can...
USMAN BHATTI seen here signing the so called LoU is the DIRECTOR OF 'EXPORTS' at POF. This LoU represents POF selling its goods outside of Pakistan and has nothing to do with the Rifle Program of the Armed Forces
Oye Choochay! You think that by posting a photo of the CZ rifle or quoting someone from the CZ factory or showing Usman from POF signing an LoU (which in practical terms means nothing) with some Czech guy means that Armed forces has bought and contracted the BREN? How is the weather on Mars...
The CZ rifle consts around a $1000 bucks a piece, the Chinese made Type 56 costs around $122 a piece. So far no complaints have been received from the units on use of the Chinese Type 56. POF has even tried to develop one in-house but it failed due to the poor metallurgy. So despite all the...
Generals should retire gracefully and cherish the respect they gained by playing their innings. Accepting positions such as ambassadors, political leaders, consultants for foreign governments is below the dignity in my opinion. The longer your put yourself on the playing crease, the more you...
We started testing because we had been 'promised' funds under SADA funding from the Government. Currently that 'promise' is not coming through with only trickle amounts being released for some other projects. I know you are partial to FN and indeed its a good weapon. But I have stated my...
The Belgians will never agree to a full ToT. Italians will also not agree to a full ToT. As I mentioned before, Pakistan will have to buy a hefty quantity of rifles of-the shelf (maybe around 200-500k units) before any of the two above agree to perhaps a partial ToT. I do not see this...
Private Sector in Pakistan is still far more capable then the Government in any capacity. There is always a starting point in this direction. That starting point is to privatize military complexes like HIT, POF, PAC, etc etc and by appointing qualified civilian COO's to head these organizations...
As usual, Pakistan Army may MRAP's kee KHICHREE pukk rahee hai!!! So many MRAP's all over the place shows the fluid state of confusion in making decesions!
The biggest WRONG in Pakistan is the military industrial complex being in the hands of Government. This has to change sooner or later. Tanks, Aircrafts, UAV's, Ships, armaments, ammunition etc have to be manufactured with greater efficiency and cost at the hands of the private sector. Government...
While the good Indian Commander has presented the ISI with threadbare the dimensions of the ops of RAW in Baluchistan and also given the names of his higher-ups etc, he now faces a larger threat from his own country then he does in Pakistan.
While Indians are in no position to demand anything...
As per my information this prototype platform was purchased by the Pakistani company for a hefty price of around US$1M in order to be demonstrated at IDEAS and later handed over to the Army for potential tests and trials. I stand by my original assessment that this is not a locally developed or...
Factories making light armored vehicles (NIJ IV) are in Karachi yes, but never heard of a MRAP and MCV vehicle manufacturing factory in the private sector in Pakistan and that too in Karachi. Can you please let me know the exact name and address of this place near KSEW?
I have my doubts that this is made in Pakistan. I know HIT and their abilities very well. This is certainly not made at HIT. So the question arises, where exactly has this been made? Who are the previous users of this vehicle? How many units have been sold so far? If its an exclusive prototype...
This is certainly not manufactured at HIT. The metal work is extremely neat and inside are European specification seats and equipment etc. My feeling is that this may be a prototype developed by some Western company that was lying rejected somewhere. Blitz Krieg Defense Solutions (who is...
They should have shot and sunk it so that like not claiming the dead on LoC, the Indian Navy would hav denied a los sub at sea as well. These IN underwater Cadets were hovering to mark the sea lanes and PN tactics to protect the CPEC ships route. Recent departure of goods from Gwadar without a...
