AoA, I dont know why you guys are getting frustrated on the F16 purchase or the lack of JF17 exports. I believe both these planes are in different phases of their life in PAF.
F16 is already a mature plateform and PAF has enough experience to juice it to the max in every role. We have all the...
It is not wise to disclose the date and type of system that will be tested. Because a lot of times the full details are not disclosed even after the test. Plus if any concerned person discloses general info then you will start asking for more PARTICULAR specs .. any hint or answer is going to...
Very true .. We are more likely to come up with a good Dictator than a genuine Politician .. Hell the politicians dont even like democracy in their own parties .. they would rather have their kids take over the charge then promote and encourage genuine leadership from within the party
Actually, KPK Information Minister Shah Farman announced in December last year that the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf led provincial cabinet had decided to abandon the past practice of glorifying party leaders through officially sponsored publicity campaigns. Mr Farman had announced that from now...
Which Pakistani UAV can fly at 75KM Altitude ??
Hope this contract goes via successfully. More such local orders should be encouraged in order to promote local defense industry.
Fighter Planes are just one part of the whole War Game plan. Without the remaining assets you will not be able to perform any mission successfully, no mater what Plane you have. e.g. considering the assets USAF employ in a war theater, it will not matter if you give them JF17 and give PAF all...
I highly doubt that any conflict between Ind vs Pak is going to escalate into a full blown war. There could be skirmishes here and there but that's about it. Because there is every possibility that any escalation is going to result into a Mutually destructive result for both or what ever will be...
Actually this is normal business procedure .. If a country A loans X amount of Money to country B, then A would not like B to use their money but buy products from say country C. What do you think FMS program is?? US gives you loan on paper and tells you to buy xyz stuff from US based companies...
Not to forget the insanely hyper priced Mirage 2000 upgrade package .. Im 100% sure that sooner or later some mega corruption scandal is gona raise its head from this deal.
Purchase of Fighter planes is a strictly Govt. to Govt. affair. Your options vary as your political/strategic relations with that country vary.
To expect that there is a xyz team of negotiating experts (whatever that means) who goes from country to country and evaluates planes based on abc...
Yet, PPP got elected again from Sindh .. means all these ppl should get a real good &()*&; so they could realize that they have been getting &()*& all along ..
All MK has to add is that HE knows everything and the Rest of the KIDS (ppl) in Pakistan are dumb and they have no idea what the World is doing. Only he knows how to use Google for answers and how to deal with white ppl :) I remember your discussions with MK in older posts and I wanted to back...
I wonder why IAF didnt wipe us out in Kargil, Mumbai and Parliment attack ??? how many more excuses they would need ?? If they have super doper unbeatable aircraft, then why did they refrain to atleast bomb few targets into our territory?? Pride is a killer and fear is the thought of admitted...
I remember from your old posts that you work or workd in the auto industry. And from your logic of buying first best and second best Mirage2K im glad your not in PAF. Mirage2K production is closed now and France has moved on to Rafale. Mean while F16's are still being produced and upgraded to...
I dont know what Entertainment channel you watch in CA but Pakistan was never in a comanding position to milk West for advance Aircrafts. Yes we have many issues and not in an ideal situation but talking specifically about the PAF, rest assured there was never such a scenario where we could have...
To procure any weapon system is not a one step, one window operation. And even if PAF is put on a standby notice of sanction free procurement; still the OEM is not waiting for your PO with the stock ready for delivery. There are multiple levels of approvals needed by every OEM from their own...
