Intersting press release. Eastern Command GoC, kind of seems obvious now.

And the 9m333 mobile very short range air defence too.

The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) carried out two successful test flights of the Very-Short Range Air Defence System (VSHORADS) missile on Tuesday. The missiles were test-fired from a ground-based portable launcher from Integrated Test Range at Chandipur, located off the...

Personally speaking, since the chances of F16 in IAF were low to begin with, I don't think we have got that much of a leverage. What this might be is , that we may be trying to say, okay since you (USA) are continuing to send arms in Pakistan, we are gonna quickly shop for a couple of items...

Was it AS350?

The moment you add something like even SPIKE LR missile with decent ATGM capability with a longer range than that of manpads, it cannot be carried by any or all UCAV. It needs bigger UAV with a payload of 500+ kgs. And the moment a bigger UAV is involved, a old S125 will still shoot down it...

Just guess the cost of a 2 decade old Strela 10 ammunition. Or a 00s SAAB RBS70. Now guess the cost of a Heron type UAV along with its sensor suite. Propeller driven armed UAVs have zero survival chance against a functional 90s SAM system.

I am against this. That is a perfectly fine surveillance platform. No need to tweek it. UCAVs aren't required untill they are something like Avenger system of USA. They are costly vs the avg Sam missile which will have to pull less Gs to get it down.

Carbines RFP to be released soon. The ammo category makes the MINSAS chambered guns invalid.

DSRV will be hosted upon these ships to conduct Submarine Rescue Operations..

The other option is to actually deregulate Fuel and Currency fully. It will be a huge shock but for a very short time period. The chances of stability are higher after that. But deregulation is a political suicide. Pakistan needs a military backed technocratic govt to take a couple of hard...

The requirements for heavy lift helicopters for IAF was like around 40 units. The high cost of Chinook means only 15 have been ordered. A further order is on the back burner due to high costs. V22 is much more costly to operate and acquire. Its out of the means of IAF. 11 were cleared for...

Put a ban on imports except fuel, food and medicine for a few months.
