i am not talking about parchi system i am talking about face to face dialogue like two mature people who are RESPONSIBLE to run PAKISTAN ..yes the public has right to know about everything what about Abbottabad Commission Report .From my point of view DAWN LEAK IS Treason and so is Abbottabad...
Pakistan is a nuclear state people should not forget that and being a nuclear state THE ARMY have to be mature and responsible and stop acting like a 5 year old child. if the army didn't like what they were looking at why not send PM a message instead of tweeting like a GF whose BF is a...
there is an article in wall street journal about German arms industry might be a case of Germany relaxing arms export.may be we can wait a bit longer and ask the Germans if they want to participate in our Gun trials .
i cant read the full article as you have to sign up .
Bilal Khan Sir have you heard of any heating issues with the puma helicopters ? because i havent heard of any heating issues otherwise oil drilling companies would have stopped using them long time ago ..
R.I.P sorry my friend its a dream item the army is busy replacing G3 gun AND looking for self-propelled 155mm gun-howitzer . they dont care about what happens to a normal soldier whose travelling in a death trap Toyota . how many more lives need to be lost for them to realise MRAP...

WE should discuss Rooivalk and super puma as a combine package in a separate thread then a lot guys filling up this this thread wont keep going back to same old thing again and again .
with rooivalk you are adding h215 super puma as well as a package similar product similar engine similar transmission plus Rooivalk is in Apache category ...and if the army can act like a smart business man they can add the MRAPS and G6 howitzer (IF PASS OUR TRIALS ) 4 PRODUCTS one supplier...
the whole point of investing in a right product is to start your own helicopter industry learn and fulfil your requirements instead of patching up like we have been doing for last 20+ years where we have bought 10 from one supplier 5 from another supplier instead of building them in house...
Rooivalk Mk2 + h215 for Pakistan are ideal as both helicopters need a customer who can invest and then keep upgrading and learning from them .right now both helicopters supplier are stuck in a corner with no one willing to invest in them
jk the only way to sort out the parts supply issue from airbus will be to add the Rooivalk +h215m and h225m as a package for all 3 armed forces + including the civil and paramilitary forces too make it a bigger package for airbus that they cant refuse ask for some technology transfer so we...
i agree with you on that when you look at numbers of helicopters in all categories its too much fish market style purchasing going on clear example is MI 35 , why just buy 4
GOING back to super Cobra there might be a case of similar to F16 someone gott a big bribe to buy them
any one got...
right now the army has got too many different types of helicopters for doing a similar job ....may be a senior member would like to open a separate thread for gunship and transport helicopters to have a proper discussion.
i think if the army can be a bit patience and use some brain for a change...
Respectfully Sir do you think rooivalk will be a lot better option then Turkish or Chinese as pak army aviation department is familiar with the engines
if you look at what airbus been trying to do from past couple of months in Romania with the revival of the production line for h215m to reduce the production cost and compete with Russian mi17 helicopters in my view it is possible ...last year business report issued by airbus shows airbus only...
so we paid $975 million dollars to USA instead of taking a good opportunity to streamline a supplier for 2 different categories of helicopters and not just a simple supplier a supplier who wont stop you from upgrading the helicopters instead they will work with you to make the product better...
I have got a question what if instead of getting AH -1z viper for a almost 1 billion dollar why Pakistan army didn't go for South African roovialk ...it could have been a similar project like jf17 start from basic and keep upgrading ....why spend 1 billon dollar on usa helicopters which you...
