In my personal opinion, PAF EW strategy should be threefold and prioritized on short, medium and long terms for an optimal utilization of the available monies and without compromising on the operational readiness of our forces.
Short Term Strategy:
Firstly, we need point EW assets (akin to...
Without getting too much into the niceties, this man posses exactly the type of mentality which serves our purpose the best going forward. If i have to pick and choose between an enemy, i would rather choose today's India on today's geopolitical canvas than an India of 2010!
There is no such thing as a 'blueprint'. Its just a very vague term. Just like we got the 'blueprints' of Agosta 90B submarines and still cant build even one more example of it.
Just like the indians want to have 'technology transfer' and 'blueprints' of everything they can possibly dream of...
NS, BB and their common cronies destroyed the country, its economy, its foreign policy, its institutions, its reputation and and and.... during the past 30 years and left the country divided along all lines. Only things prospered during this period are the balance sheets of their businesses...
“If a final decision had been reached I'd be in a much calmer state of mind. Believe me when I tell you that my heart is with you. I appreciate and would even privately agree with what you're advising us to do.”
What pathetic piece of spineless jerks had been ruling upon us. Its nothing short...
I think commonizing the platforms for all AEW&C, EW, MPA, VIP and other special operations across airforce, navy and army would result in considerable reduction in maintenance, support and manpower training costs over the long term. The CJCSC office could play a huge role in planning on these...
If they were available, we could have used them with Navy as well for its MPA instead of using ATRs. Commonization saves a lot of cost. But maybe there were other considerations or the other jets were all tied up .
Brother, reverse engineering is easier said than done
As an example, a small high pressure fuel injector (similar to what we are using in the IC engines of our cars) is also used in the combustion chamber of a jet engine. This small single injector itself is a sub assembly of different...
You are right. Thats why i said we need to realign our priorities for a full offensive doctrine once the other side inititates, there should be no place to hide in their land. A CM with 1500 km is nothing out of this world. If we can get what we already have then this should be a piece of cake...
Brother, i didnt mean we need deep strike aircraft, what i meant was to have a platform like J-16 to be used as a launch platform for carrying a couple of long range CMs (~1500 km). For example, the Tomahawks currently have no aerial platforms to launch, yet in Japan the idea is gaining ground...
Is there a way we can wreak havoc on mumbai (and/or pune ~ 150km from coast) in case of them hitting our bigger cities? Considering Mumbai alone contributes to over 40% of their foreign trade, this is where we can hurt them and hurt them hard. Can we do it without relying on surface based...
I would just add one interesting thing, the Indian panelists keep addressing our PM as Imran (first name) while our people keep calling their PM as Modi or Modi jee (family name + respect).
They should be calling our PM as Khan sahab (analgous of Modi jee). If they call our PM Imran (first...

Yeah Rafale is the end ot the world and JF-17 is nothing. Just like the super powerful radar of Su-30 coupled with super powerful Saturn engines with thrust vectoring and acting as a missile truck, next time bring rafale with you as well, then we can talk further.
I think investing in brand new F-16s with how the geopolitics has evolved in all those years would have serious implications not only for our tight pockets but also how efficiently we could maneuver in a new multi polar world besieged by the conflict between the two super powers. Looking at used...
