Bingo .. and that is exactly why this statement is made .. any "SANE" person remotely related to this industry would know that its a Bluff call .. however the baboos on the other side will probably go nuts and put their plans under further reviews and evaluations .. further delays .. who knows...
Chief's statement is meant for our neighbor .. who is about to make a call for Rafale .. Maybe make them think extra HARD with some more delays ... Nothing more, nothing less ..
It is a very alarming development. Don't know who is right and who is wrong but Russia is in no position to attack any Turkish Military facility as it will not be possible to sustain such operations logistically. Turkey will have the upper hand with or without Nato support.
And if for some...
Argentina was in advanced stages of selecting Kfir but yesterday they have postponed the decision till the elections. So probably the new Govt. is going to re-evaluate the options again ..
How many embargoed planes expected to join PAF with MLU ?? Also any news on the new built Blk52 sqd ?? There is news today that Air Chief having meeting with US counterpart for capacity enhancement of PAF in terms of fighter jets, advanced weaponry and allied equipment.
Our senior member Mastan sb, experiences extreme mood swings after every 2-3 months. First he will praise JF17 and its practicality, then he will criticize it for being unable to carry 10 BVR and defeat F22 and then finally he will blame PAF for being traitors and unable to procure F22. And then...
If the performance is similar to what is being claimed then we could eventually also see SR and MR SAM batteries for Land and Sea based defense systems based on these missiles. This will be a true game changer for us in South Asia.
Did you read what I wrote ?? Are you sure u just boast ur current strengths only ?? Do you know how long you guys have been bragging about LCA, MMRCA, AMCA, FGFA on this forum ?? In case you have forgotten then I suggest you go to their respective threads and look at the dates on first posts...
My condolence to the families of these Martyrs. May Allah accept their shahadaat and grant them Eternal bliss in Janna.
Sorry that I am not up to date with Turkey's current news but I thought that Turkey was fighting with ISIS based in Syria. Where did these PKK terrorists came into play ...
Some unfortunate news from Yemen. Around 52 UAE soldiers embraced shahadat on 4th Sept when an ammo depo was targeted by Houthi rebels with a Rocket attack. I first thought it was a propaganda by Yemeni Rebels. But more and more main stream media and now UAE itself has acknowledged it. It is one...
Thank you for sharing these pictures. I do not know much about Algeria but from the pictures your armed forces look very impressive. It seems you have both western and Russian origin equipment. Very modern, well equipped and trained soldiers. May I know what are the general threats faced by...
How so?? In fact all these three delta aircraft also have the same small wing pylons like the mirages .. please google their images and compare the size of pylons with non-delta aircraft.
Good to see PAF doing PR for Zarb e Azab and importance of F16's accurate bombing runs in media. I think they are building a good campaign for US Govt. and will try to purchase the remaining 18 Block52 and a sqd or two of used ones from USAF stock.
I think Iran will be gearing to scoup Su35 as and when allowed. However IMO, since Iran already has a sqd or two of Mig29's. What Iran can do in the 5 year wait period is ask Russia for spares (and in guise, upgrade kits) for their current Mig29's and ask Russians to establish complete overhaul...
Will be interesting to know the delivery time and associated weapon package with these Choppers. Probably PA is going to see this as a test case of after sale service, training + integration before we show seriousness in other items.
He also mentions to discuss purchase of New Russian Fighters ?? I think this is a significant statement and deserves a separate thread. Any idea on what type and quantity will be under discussion .. Will it be the Su35 or Mig35 ??
