I remember reading that Munir Sahab passed away few years ago of cancer. Maybe someone here can verify. May Allah bless his soul and grant him a place in Jannah.

I hate to break it to you, but the C919 isn't just flying, it is on track for certification by next year and has already received 1000+ orders. And that is for an unproven aircraft from an unproven manufacturer. What do you think its order book is going to look like once it gets certified and...

I still remember the day when PDF went down. I thought it was probably another cyber attack or something like that because the site had been down couple of times that year. It never came back, sadly. They had a sane membership acceptance policy. Unlike this forum.

I'm not talking about healthcare services. I'm saying the government can help some of the main local drug companies merge into a big pharma giant. This pharmaceutical manufacturing company, with the government's support, can then start volume manufacture of most generic drugs and can also...

You built a nuke industry from scratch, didn't you? Could building a pharma giant be harder? Imagine a Pakistani drug company that can produce generic life-saving drugs like these in-country. Not only does it have a market of 220 million people available to it, but it can easily export these...

The success rate of Iron dome is neither anywhere near 90% nor would it be cost effective against unguided rocket fire (or artillery fire, in the case of Pakistan). It proved to be a big failure when the last time (2017 or 18) they started targeting Israel. Israel has an interest in creating...

Actually, the costs of operating fighter aircraft are far, far higher than the cost of operating long range SAMs. Also, modern aircraft are far more expensive than SAM systems. The phrase "worth their weight in gold" comes to mind. Why do you think Pakistan prefers single engined planes over...

This is a great system. And Denel can help Pakistan in developing domestic SAMs. However, the Cheetah/Mongoose are a CIWS. They compete with the Russian Pantsir and Chinese FK-1000 and cannot provide area air defence and dont really do much against the serious aerial threat to Pakistan's...

Aster is from Eurosam which is a joint venture between Italy and France (thales). Do you seriously think France does not decide who this system will be exported to? CAMM 1 is 25km ranged, and CAMM 2 is a 50km ranged derivative of the british ASRAAM air to air missile. It is not a system that...

The Aster 30 Block 2 is a good choice but the Aster 15 and Aster 30 Block 1 aren't. However, chances of the French releasing even the Block 1 Aster 30 are slim. You can simply forget about getting the Block 2. An euro weapon system is best avoided as these countries will always be a pain in...

I also think that the LY-80 purchase was not a good decision. With a 40km range and only 6x missiles per TEL, it neither has enough missiles for saturation. Pakistan should instead have gone for a combination of the FM-3000 QRSAM that has a 30km range and 8x missiles per TEL and the FK-1000...

It looks like the PAF finally sees how unsustainable it is to rely on fighter aircraft for air defence. It was an absolutely flawed doctrine, the Soviet Union and China realized it decades ago, even Europe did. But because the US was in no danger of any significant numbers of enemy aircraft...

I believe that it was a mistake that the design of JF-17 was not updated in the past 20 years. Consider the difference between China's technological level of the 90s and where they are today: back then they were trying hard to get a Mirage 2000 level aircraft like J-10 to fly, and today they...

This is a satirical post. Dont take it seriously

So this is not a missile serial number but contract activity code. And it is used for both Taiwanese sales and Pakistani sales. Do you think if you could find this number with a simple google search, the IAF couldn't find it over two days from the same source that you did?

Really? a number scribbled with a marker on a junction box on the inside of an aircraft's skin? Is that how you think a fighter aircraft serial number gets stamped? I'm amazed at your intelligence. Actually I'm not. It's your stupidity that i'm amazed at. No wonder your pilots got owned in...

Is the news confirmed? It doesn't look like anything is confirmed yet. Saudis investing in the company is the best thing that can happen to Denel in terms of securing finances and survival of the company. It literally guarantees the survival of the firm. Selling Denel to a western firm...

The thing is, Mastan Khan is the devil's advocate for PAF. He is the criticism PAF badly needs. He actually has some very valid points on PAF's procurement decisions, its historical acts and its leaderships decisions. In th present instance, whichever out of the various possible reasons lead...

Please ban these two idiots randomradio and the other jackass called sneaker. Both of them have been trolling this thread and every other thread since morning.

These two idiots have been trolling you all day and you are all replying to them. Quit being idiots. Dont feed the trolls.
