Great post. I think there have been some posts of very high calibre from some posters. These deserve a section in Professional corner. They should be open for everyone to read and rate but should be selective only to member s to post by invitation. If the Mods agree a section can be established...

Did we ever get a replacement? A

The timing of elections has to be crucial for IK. He needs another 5 years to get Pakistani economy on firm footings. Otherwise we will never be able to recover from this quagmire. He will require a stable government with decent majority and ruling in at least Punjab, Sindh and NWFP for there to...

It is strategically a good call. It would settle Punjab down and possibly get the MQM back as well. I think IK wants another 8-12 months to settle things down as much as possible before calling elections when he is on the rise. This would really bury the opposition. There are no angels in...

You are not being reasonable. He is my brother just like you are my younger brother. Just because I ask you to stop being argumentative is not because of my relationship. It is forum rules that you respect each other, and respect senior posters. Please comply with forum rules. I have already...

Tit for tats are for little boys. Be a greater man and move on or report the post. It leaves a bad taste in the mouth to see fellow members arguing . A

I think whatever has happened will happen behind the scene. There are commissions but we do not know whether they were taken or cost adjusted accordingly. This is the way of the weapons world. A

Firstly do not insult senior posters. @Chak Bamu is a respected poster on this forum. By all means disagree and counter argue but your post is of no constructive value as you do not present a counter argument. With regards to my post, you maybe right but safety lies in relying only on one's...

While fully agreeing with you, I would just add that a higher thrust and more importantly longer MTBO and engine life may yet sway PAF's opinion regarding these other engines. These engines however are far away from mass production and therefore we may talk about integration once these are fully...

I think there is more of an internal deep state assessment of the direction the US wants to take than just Indian influence although the raised skirt of the golden promise of trade and investment opportunities which the huge market offers may have swayed the decision making. The powers that be...

The real question is our worth to the US establishment. I suspect currently we seem not to carry any traction with them at all. Even our help in evacuafion from Afghanistan seems to have been shrugged away as something we HAD TO DO, rather than a favour we have done to them. I dont know whether...

Agree with you. I think once PAF decides to induct a project, it will induct enough to make it economically viable as well as strategically sound. 60 to 90 in various blocks is what we may be looking at. An interesting thought is how this implies to subsequent production of JFT. Do we cap it at...

Iam afraid I have to agree with you wholly. 2014 was the crunch year and he should not have accepted lotas from left right and centre. It may have caused him the majority in 2018 but he is the leader of the road. He should have solidified his ranks developed an infrastructure for takeover in...

I have taken exception to your post. I have reported you and leave subsequent decisions to moderators. A

Dont put words into other people's mouths. You know very well why PAF and a lot of posters prefer more F16s. You also know that when matters pertaining to adversely effecting our security were suggested the government has point blank refused to do so. Thinking of an alternate way of doing...

The small numbers are likely to change as PAF evaluates and incorporates the J10 into its mileau. Along with further upgrades, possibly upto 90 to 110 J10s could be bought. There will be evaluations and possible changes fed back to our brothers in China. Due to lack of any limitations PAF will...

You dont know how wrong you are!!! JFT is an indegenous project and nothing will harm it. J10s were acquired for different reasons. A

Pehlay dono ko bikini pehnao phir beauty contest karwao. Bhai why do military machines have to look beautiful? They have an inherent beauty of their own. Pakistanis love affair with the eff sola is longstanding. I dont think I will change my mind which says the F16 and Rafale are aesthetically...

Even in those times ROEs were being observed. Most of these fighters were shot down over Pak soil. So no biggie. Nothing to brag about. It is no different to the IAF fighters which were shot down in Feb. A

Ghusl karna zaroori hai bhai. A
