1. Giving up on Kashmir tentamounts to neutering Pakistani narrative on the issue of people's right of self determination. The only problem is Kashmiris want independence from both India and Pakistan. This is a solution which is not acceptable to either. So this remains a thorn in the side of...

Was this the man now dead episode? A

Yara. Sorry to say this but do you have dementia or selective amnesia? Not a couple of weeks ago you brought up the same subject and I explained to you that the Ozgur upgrade cannot happen without US approval. Secondly the programme itself has not been installed on the Turkish fighters. Why will...

Both HIT and PAC were founded in 71 so there wasnt much to destroy in 71. KSEW was founded in 57 and if you look at its history it has gone backwardssince its inception. Recently it has been revamped but considering its age it is still dependent on designing help and metallurgy. We have no...

Oh bhai!!! Bai ja araam naal. In english take a chill pill. The Pakistani polity has got its cahunas and political independence in shackles, held to ransom. Current economic chaos will not allow any meaningful response to any aggression as we simply do not have the reserves to indulge in a...

Tells us how much you know!!!!! Anyways nothing compares with the mighty samosa with its rambunctious Uttam no where to be seen AESA radar. It is so good no one has actaully seen it> A

Lets get things in perspective. A. Bajwa extension- wrong policy by IK although the logic at the time was to have the Chief support the new government. For this 1 yr extension should have been enough. B. Foreign aid- I dont know how much of a role Bajwa played but seems logical as he had the...

Can we stick to the topic please or do we need a clear out? Please act like big boys. We should not need the Mods to police every section. Regards A

Bhai. Istand by what I said. The last war we had was 71. We have had skirmishes with small/medium arms usage but other than 26/02 no/little usage of any defence equipment. Now think of the cost involved in maintaining/buying them and think of their usage. Aside from the preventative aspect which...

We have been slaves mentally for decades. However these are international norms and all civilized nations adhere to them. We dont winge when we get aid from the UK,why should we not join in the grief of these people. Joe Biden attended the fumeral. That does not mean he is a slave to the UK...

Nothing of the sort!the picture is reversed in fact. You have to understand their perspective. The less we get the more secure they are and the less they have to spend on their defence. Being predominently a trading nation it wants to expand trade by spending money on trade development. Defence...

I can only surmise but here it goes. A. H series are bulky and given their weight are unsuitable for wing deployment ( I guess the weight is around 1100kgs). B. It needs a designator POD, the integration of which is additional work for very little gain. C. PAF has now acquired the GIDS series...

Besides why would the mighty US worry if a few brown butts get fried. Remember wars are the adverts the US defence conglomerates thrive on. A

I dont know whether to laugh and cry. It maybe your opinion and as such needs to be respected. But as a picture of ground realities, it is a pathetic version. We have legacy fighters still in use because we dont have enough money to replace them. Instead it is suggested we sell off fourth...

Is it possible for you to point me to the post?. A

Who are they? The opinions of arm chair generals do not matter much to the policy planners of the PAF. We will hold on to the F16s for the next 20 to 30 years as we have done to the M3s. We do not have much choice in the matter whether anybody likes it or not. If there are any more"THEY" in your...

This is the internet and no one can be stopped from expressing an opinion. He had some friends, others who disagreed with him and yet others who did not like him. He did not help his cause by getting on a high horse and berrate anyone who disagreed with him. I suspect his,sources were genuine...

No one is buying more F16s. If you read the news it is to provide opportunities to upgrade and maintain the CURRENT fleet. No new weapons/ platforms/capabilities are being sold. We have a fleet of 75 ACs which still need to be maintained. A

Inna lillahe wa inna elaihe rajeoun. Indeed he has gone on where all of us will go. May Alĺah forgive his shortcomings and grant him Jannah al firdaus. Ameen. A

The photograph is from a previous meeting as it shows ex Air chief rather than the current one. Coming from ISPR it is shameful. A
