Exactly.. Tomahawk and Babar have the same dimensions and Tomahawk is definitely capable of being fired from a 533mm tube.. how that capability is achieved for Babur is a different matter altogether.. US detecting a "harpoon launch" could very well be Babur being tested from the sea..

Your childish arguments are in contradiction to your so called "grey hairs".. or the brain just could not keep up with the realities around it.. or (which is more than likely) you are just pretending to fill up pants that are too big for you.. Coming to the topic at hand.. we don't need to...

Just like the Pokhran thermo nuclear devices? LoL.. grow up kid! When we say it works, we are DAMN sure it works..

EXCLUSIVE: Nirbhay Cruise Missile Deviates From Trajectory, Terminated Mid Air BALASORE: A developmental test of India’s first home grown cruise missile Nirbhay failed once again with the weapon system deviating from the pre-designated trajectory forcing the mission team to terminate it...

i dont disagree with this, but ONLY heavy deep strike fighters are not the solution to the DEFENSE of the coastal areas.. which is the PAF's primary task.. reason being that these air superiority/deep strike fighters are primarily an OFFENSIVE weapon.. they are more expensive to maintain with...

Add IFR and you have a decent CAP of our coastal area or better range (giving flexibility to tactics e.g coming in for a kill from the west) in this config..

How cute! Remember the chinese sub port calling in Karachi n India making a hue n cry AFTER it was disclosed.. go read up on credible stuff before chest thumping here..

what i don't see being discussed in this thread are the technical aspects.. the cockpit clearly does not have HOTAS.. while both our front line fighters do (F-16 & JF-17).. how would that impact pilot training or would that be just negligible? would that be one of the changes required by PAF? i...

are there any HMDs (chinese or from some other source) being evaluated for the JF17?? :what:

^^kindly go through the thread.. even going 5 to 10 pages back would give u ur answer.. its just been answered too many times here.. would it not be more practical (makes more sense to me anyway) to replace the mirage VPA3s at masroor with IFR equipped (a.k.a block-II) JF17s.. would give them...

reported by sir Pshamim couple of months back.. was discussed here in some thread if im not wrong..

if they were delivered, would that mean they can now be used with the MLUed and Blk 52 F-16s?? or would the years of storage effect their operational capabilities?

it seems kinda "too empty" from the inside.. i always thought the "goodies" would be controlled from a separate workstation manned by someone other than the pilot and copilot.. :confused:

werent the targets pre-programmed on Ra'ad?? to attack a target at sea one would have to include midcourse adjustments to cater for the moving targets.. and if that is true that means targeting equipment on the missile has changed.. :enjoy:

we really dont need a AC.. as Armstrong already mentioned, the economics involved would be way off the charts for the PN and does not cater in its sea denial doctrine.. subs are easier to maintain and are a headache to track by the opposing force.. the fear it projects is sufficient to keep...

research.. read.. analyze.. deduce.. its as simple as that.. what does MTCR stand for? MISSILE Technology Control Regime.. is the PN getting any missiles from France?? NO! Is the Agosta being modified physically?? NO! The only modification would be in the fire control of the SUBTICS system. Can...

Dude! be realistic.. :blink: What you're suggesting goes into the realm of imagination. Even if we had funds, we would have been lucky to have ordered a quarter of the numbers u suggested. And 212s? You fail to realize that 212 is not an export version just like the Raptor is not for export...

PN is going the Israel way for now by deploying a cruise missile based deterrent

the 533mm tube is perfectly capable of firing the Tomahawk cruise missiles and as Babur has similar dimensions as the Tomahawk, there would be no need of any kind of physical modification to the Agostas (France, MTCR does not come into play as no modification done and France is not selling us...

yes im very much aware of that.. i was saying in context to this statement "This was part of the 'strings' or 'conditions' that PAF will not operate these new fighters against India and will be solely used in WoT." provision of Amraams by the US of A means the Blk52s can be used as "self...
