The guy is stupid. I have read his blog and it is filled with basic crap. Let us look at this. If you shoot this weapon you have a problem with your eyes. Unblievable that boys are allowed to give opinions without understanding the facts.
Every f16 has standard ifr. It cost you more to get it removed. Maybe you should read the comment of our former ACM who told in an interview (published in AFM) that the only reason it was not used by PAF in the beginning cause they had no checked it. So a simple and direct question. Where did...
It is a matter of few hours to make it possible to send it by ship. They could send it faster in a herc. I do not see a big deal. And the block2 has inflight refueling. Only 9 months to go.
Only the block52+ can have CFT. You cannot just put them up to do the job. There is a big structural modifcation and it is not an option. Let me put it different. If it was possible then there would be many nations having it already. I doubt the PAF is the first to have it as an upgrade.
I think I know the weight and the logic behind the interview. I cannot give you the answer cause it might be misused by people that either should not be elected or our enemies. Don't make big deal out of it. It is done and just wait and see. It is in the hands of Allah now. You have done your...
I just checked it here. According to one of the best sites in the world it is indeed true. Here copy paste from that forum. Do not know whether it is ok to link the sites.
>>>Hello everybody,
Sorry to keep you waiting for a while, but please understand that it's the first time we'll have real...
I do not think the IAF can fill up the gaps. Besides that PAF will defend its airspace and with long range radars and AWACS it is able to generate enough CAP. Short term war will not be a win for IAF. Long term is an option but if they had guts they would have countered more action after the...
With India buying in the long term so many advanced weapons there is a limit for Pakistan to react. We made lots of fun about LCA but let us be serious. They have older mig29 to be upgraded. They have older Mirage2000H to be upgraded to something serious. They have a few hundred MKI. They bought...
I meant that at first sight you would think that the delta is horrible when looking at displays but a delta is superb at high altitudes, high speed and wingloading. Looking at displays doesn't give you the clues.
Personally I think if this bird gets 4 BVR and 2 wvr it can do the job just fine...
Honestly, the LCA is horrible when it comes to airshows. As expected. It is a delta. Huge wing and one engine. Nice for speed but terrible in longer then one turn combat. I think it will be a perfect asset for Indian Airforce.
It is not that they do not have better stuff, it is about they could not find insiders so they used a ex US military expert to contact terrorist groups in Pakistan and spy on Pakistani equipment. This way they can track and eventually destroy Pakistani military assets easier. This guy is the...
I read in an interview that the Chinese equipment was as good as what was offered by France. The price, TOT and time to test made the big difference.
Besides that it could be improved faster cause the equipment was plug and play and we could just add an aesa radar, better and faster...
Mid of last quarter? November 2011?
That can't be the Karakoram Eagle. That is going to be delivered in the next quarter. J10B seems to ok but strange why waiting that long. Same goes for JF17 block 2. Everything is already finalized so I doubt they need another 8 months to make and besides...
Sorry but is is a CG and not a real pic. They will get them but we need to see how the USA handles the case with the so called diplomatic consultant that shot two motorcyclist in the back and called it a robbery.
Every 4 th gen aircraft is going through improvements to lower RCS. There is no stealth but coatings, less RCS structure, changed radar etc etc. A stealth plane is not an improved old plane but a new concept which starts with a new drawing.
I agree that J20 will not be exported to Pakistan before the PLAAF has enough numbers but I do not think that PAF needs the exact same J20. It needs a smaller low RCS fighterjet for a2a only. PAF does not need a few thousand miles range. It needs CAP for the few stupid Indian planes (culprits)...
I think it is very difficult to know what will come. The fact that it needs to come is very important. The Indians are laughing and happy about so many sellers in India at the moment.
What could it be...
-Upgraded JF17 cause it needs to be tested within next few months and go into production...
