There in bold is the crux of the problem with the new generation of Pakistani defense enthusiast posters. Nobody is willing to engage in a civil discourse or better yet learn from the professionals or from senior peers who have gathered knowledge over the years. This why despite being extremely...

A figment of the Indians' rather overactive imagination which acts as a convenient scapegoat for their own failings. Anything & everything that can or will & has gone wrong on the LOC can be put down at the feet of the feared BATs. In reality no such things as BAT exist in the Pak Army.

Thunder vs Thunder isn't DACT The D stands for Dissimilar i.e different aircraft Air combat Training. It is dact only when the adversary aircraft are two different platforms otherwise it is plain simple ACM training.

Tactics! Exploiting your machine's quirks to their fullest. What else is DACT & aggressor training all about if not that? Machines aren't the end all be all & neither is the man. It is how the man uses the machine to its fullest. I suggest going to a site called dt.com & reading a sticky thread...

No "bleeding energy" means losing the energy to maneuver faster than another aircraft. Read up on energy maneuverability theory.

90+ Canadair Sabres actually. They served in the PAF as the F-86E

A little history lesson, that was Imperial Iran ie Iran under the Shah. Iran under the self anointed Ayatollahs' Vilayat e Faqih has always been covertly hostile towards sunni states. Ask any Pakistani who served in our intelligence apparatus in the 80s & they'll tell you exactly what our...

Spot on! For the overwhelming majority here it is a non issue.

Bhai name tag vekhna Si!

Plainly speaking as someone familiar with how things have been going on in Punjab since PMLN came back, your assessment is wrong. A parent is a recently retired Dr & myself being a chartered accountant come into contact with people in the financial bureaucracy of the province. Since I'm somewhat...

nice try dude trying to tell me about the history of my extended family (read the post again & btw Raamay has a martial origin. Why don't you as around for its meaning & no I'm not going to spoon feed). Raamay means lancers. There weren't any Ramdays till well till my par nana went & took his...

Also fun fact unlike Ramays, Ramdays are'nt a sub caste or tribe of Arains. How do I know that? Well let's just say the maternal side of my family had a big hand in educating & bringing up these guys about 4 4½ generations ago. Seeing their current shenanigans, I wish my great grand nana hadn't...

True because there are a bucketload of cases of people changing ancestry/caste as they move upwards. My family is very skeptical of people claiming to be Arains for example who cannot tell what their sub tribe (gott in Urdu/Punjabi) is for example. Many times when looking for rishtas, ostensible...

I don't remember the exact source, but remember reading about a study which showed a majority of Arains share the same haplop group as Hijazi Arabs. Over the years dilution due to interbreeding with other ethnic groups should be expected. Also Arains have particularly mideastern features...

Dude you are WRONG wrt sub castes! My family tree goes back to the Abbasi Caliphate era & that is how we know our descent for sure. This classification you refer to is a post partition thing. Before that & even now Arains like me make sure we know our sub castes. Get in touch with Anjuman e...

Number 5: WRONG! There are plenty of Arain sub tribes around bro. This point somewhat negates number 6 & relates to number 7 & expands on my point above. If you manage to get a compilation of Arain subtribe names, you'll find that an overwhelming majority of those names have a martial (military)...

Shahab bhi baghair nikkah haram hae.

Dude, only a blind or intellectually limited guy would tharkofy on her! See much better girls every day in Pakistan who by our national standards would be average. She is below them even when caked up.
