The first thing that would prove testing on board will be new plat form with foldable wings. The present carrier is a jump sky type carrier and j-20 needs a catapult type aircraft carrier which is under construction yet. That's the pre requisite for J-20 a catapult. The space that j20 requires...
Presumably 32 will be in total out of which two are simulators for training. I wonder when is next PAF song coming as our beloved Air Force doesn't show new gadgets unless their is an occasion.
First, it's on a landing angle that's why it's lights are on. Landing lights are indication for the tower crew who also confirms in return to pilot that your landing gear is down and seems ok.
Secondly it's a Mirage 2000 and not M 3/5. So who ever made this photoshop picture he doesn't know both...
Yes certainly project is flourushing otherwise PT-3 would not have been made or tested. News are that PL navy has got interest in it as J-20 is a very heavy contender for catapult type aircraft carrier, it's underconstruction and a stealth variant instead or along with a j15 is only a viable...
I hope it comes out like this, but the intake doesn't seem to have inner roots for such job, by inner roots I mean no space for routing the wires or mounting, as it's seems to just a plane body hull unlike the F-16 intake which was designed from the beginning for such a mount.
If there is a repeat order of Aselon pods then the number comes to 32 pods, as first order was comprised of 15 pods for targeting and one for training or a simulator pod, now multiply it with 2.
I don't think so PAF would change all present thunders to this radar as it's new and untested yet. PAF would change only after plaaf is configured to it. And as far as buying new jets PAF is damn too slow than even India for deciding it.
Instead of going to mirage 2000s PAF should seriously consider J-10c and make it more advance. Even if it comes at power to block 50/52 how can one say it doesn't give any thing extra. What else PAF is looking for. Replace old Mirages and all F-7p type with it and it will give a super punch...
Pakistan air space has been divided into 3 sectors each sector needs to be fully covered by AWACS as both eastern and western sides needs full attention. If each sector requires average of 3 aircrafts then nine are total requirement. Now if the sea sector had made more demand than usual then for...
Not procuring on technical reasons is not a crime for e.g J-10 was declined by kaamra engineers team on the basis of Time between over haul was considered very low. Only 600 hrs of first overhaul, Mirages were also declined of soaring cost and maintenance setup flaws, only crime could be bribe...
No doubt PAF is at disadvantage on both fronts qualitative and quantitative. Rafael would be like a new F-16 against Mig-23 or Mirage 3/5. As in eighties we had the edge even with fewer F-16s. We need a equivalent fighter like typhoon, f-16 v etc to counter the balance. Even if the J-10 with...

That was not just only gps fooling but actually it was a perfect new example of hacking drones software with including its data link. Drone was hacked and hijacked in mid air and landed at Iranian air base.
As their is no Afghan Air Force operational. Still Jf-17 has been extensively used on ground attack roles on western borders, even LGB's were used from thunders, but with ground lazing or buddy lazing. Now it might be possible that Aselon pods have already been tested in real action without...
