I assume that a 500-700 ton craft would have a range of minimum 2000 NM. If they are shallow water capable, they should be able to operate in this column, hence penetrate anchorages and harbors or at least have a SDV payload that undertakes the same. Detection in these waters of next to...

In the 60's, Pakistan Navy ventured in the arena of asymmetric warfare, by ordering Midget submarines and swimmer delivery vehicles from Italy. These are generally known to be limited anti-shipping and mining platforms. Hence was the formation of Pakistan's frogmen branch, setup on the pattern...

It's not a limitation. The advent of SSM relieves the AF of deep strike using A/C only. The issue is numbers. Pilots need to be trained, and pilots need to keep fit. To do that, you need aircraft. Mirage lives on to fill the role, to ensure that we have the pilots and they are fit.

old and outdated. Stop the propaganda against Service. Grow up. This is a great effort by PN. The establishment looks great. Bravo Zulu.

Lets wait for your Rafale's instead, and then see if you F it up like you did the Flankers.

I am just an old man. I don't know much about these topics.

JF-17 cannot replace the Mirage. Mirage 3/5 have a unique space in Pakistan that can only be replaced by an equivalent deep strike fighter, which will sooner or later be acquired. JF17, in its blocks, replaces the A5 (complete), F6(complete), F7P (complete), F7PG (underway) and then F16 Peace...

Nice package to sustain PAF Mirages till 2025.

I was undergoing refit by STM ;)

So whats the progress now?

with over 60 years of military experience, you call my statements imagination?

There is always a tradeoff between challenges, opportunities, and resources. We are not compared to USN. I don't expect you to understand military history of doctrine theories, and posting pictures does not really contribute to education of people on a forum. BR

i agree with Nosy, since he is my student.

Yeah, Nosy is not very kind about AM ZAC

We were so scared when you bought the Su-30, as one of your SU-30 would scan 08 F16 Blk 52s, and shoot down 04 with your adders. The reality and our superior training and planning has shown otherwise. Let your Rafale come. We have already started to prepare for it. Since your pilots like the...

There is no enough space on F22 for 16 SSMs. However, putting so much AsM assets on platform is also wrong. This is suitable for Russian/Chinese Saturation doctrine, where two or four missiles are fired on each target in ripple fire to overwhelm the defenses. Our Navy follows the wester...

They are all powered by Emaan (faith) which is much more potent than nuclear propulsion.

Milsoft provides part of the DLP for the local developments.

So the Turks will be building Pakistan's new miniature submarine?

Okay, "buddy" indeed. Good job.
