President elect Macri of Argentina will have a difficult job deciding which aircraft to go for. Remember the deal is not done yet as this new govt has to give the final go ahead. His main agenda is getting the economy back on track after four years of almost no growth. At the same time the air...

This is political posturing. And like all such postures there is no logic behind it. Who cares what Ginrish says anyway. Better he says it so others know it's an ignorant statement and stay away from commenting on it.

I wonder if larger fuel tanks for Thunder are being considered. The current tanks are almost of the same capacity as those on F7s/Mig21, minimal improvement perhaps. Huge tanks on Rafale though.

Waiting for the next issue.

Alan Warnes on Twitter :- Plenty of JF-17 news for you Thunder followers. But it will appear in AFM and prob Arabian Aerospace's Dubai news.

Looks like you need a MOCA or an MMSE or better yet a frontal assessment battery. Standards on moderation in this forum are going down it seems.

50 CM-400s are more than enough.. with 100 802s as well. The enemy doesn't have 100 to 150 warships. A few high profile hits in the Arabian Sea will be enough to give us the upper hand at sea assuming we achieve air superiority.

F16s with AESA in the current geopolitical scene is going to be very difficult. Focus is shifting from Afghanistan towards the middle east and Ukraine. Even the CSF funds are unlikely after 2015.

In COIN ops the traditional air and artillery support of bombing or shelling fixed coordinates is getting almost obsolete. In an on-going ground op dynamic targeting is the name of the game with direct contact between commanders on the ground and air assets. This is where time-on-station for an...

I dont think anymore F16s have been inducted since the Jordanian ones.

The block I can drop LGBs on a target if painted by another aircraft like the F16. Hopefully the block II will paint and bomb on its own.

You missed the explanation for Rashid Minhas Shaheed in this opening statement.......

Agree with what you say but did you really have to open a new thread for this?

Pathetic.

CCIP mode is the best........

Why PAF? Aren't those USAF insignia on the wings?

PAF may have thought they could do the same with E3/E2 as they did with F16/F5.

They are modified Pumas in Rambo3. Pumas with fake wings attached to carry "weapons". Look at it closely in the film.

Per the flight global report looks Iike PAF is looking for major improvements in block III. AESA, IRST, pods attachment under forward fuselage.
