Is Indian Aircraft Carrier a Big Threat for Pakistan Navy?

[MultaniGuy]

Not at all, because we have anti-missile cruise missiles and submarines to kill Indian aircraft carriers.

Any idea about how OPEC behaved during earlier India Pakistan conflicts? I just expect them to side with Pakistan for religious reasons. Nothing beyond that.

OPEC and even non OPEC countries have historically sided with Pakistan through fuel and in some cases arms (Iran under Shah), Indonesia has gone as far as offering to directly involve itself and take Indian Islands but i believe a ceasefire was declared before anything came of that.

That’s was decades ago. Why we have been ignore the economy for the past 3 decades, the Indians have been making inroads. We need to build up our economy, it’s the second most powerful potential weapon against Indian navy. With a strong navy, we can buy any weapon we need from friendly nations and maintain our will to fight. This is the second after political cohesion. We need to resolve our political issues and move full force into building up our economy ASAP.

The question was about earlier conflicts.

My mistake. Thanks for the clarification.

No, IAC is not a real threat because Indian carrier operation is pretty weak. You just look at the number of aircraft they put on the carrier deck and how hard it is to move a Mig-29K from hangar to carrier deck, that should give you an idea of how many sorties IN can launch from it's aircraft carriers. hint/hint: not many.

If you compare this to what China has done in a much shorter time. It has 24 J-15s + 3 helicopter on deck at the same time, which means it can do 27 sorties in a pretty short timeframe. That's what a half competent aircraft carrier operation looks like.

Pakistan should invest in naval drones. We have seen effectiveness of air and naval drones in Ukraine war.
A swarm of small long range submarine or over the water drones can take out large ships.

No Indian pilot had landed on an aircraft carrier in two years and won't any time soon. lol

Indians don't really have an operational carrier arm right now and hadn't one in a very long time. Not worth worrying about.

Why Indian Navy pilots haven’t landed on an aircraft carrier in 2 yrs & won't anytime soon

While INS Vikramaditya's repair and refit process is delayed, landing on aircraft carrier INS Vikrant will likely take place early 2023. Meanwhile, naval pilots train on a shore-based test facility in Goa.

No matter what technology indians get they manage to make it look hopeless.

They are very good at bragging about every thing they buy though. You have Indians going into threads telling people how experienced in carriers they are. Experience in being incompetent is not good experience. lol

There is a philosophy behind it i.e. failures make you learn ....... so they keep failing.

We need to focus on good satellites and, reconnaissance drones (WZ-8 as example) and aircraft.

This way we can pinpoint and locate IN aircraft carriers and other aircraft carriers of enemy countries and target them with P-282 and maybe DF-17 or DF-100 if China is willing to share tech.

Why cant we just buy a friggin oil tanker and make it a runway on board, with the added length we dont need catapult system. It would be like a natural runway. Also in ww3, battleships were converted to aircraft carriers all the time by adding a simple flight deck.

Oil tankers are too small in length and overall size.

Also in ww2, naval aircraft back then required much less runway length to take off from.


On top of that, which BB does Pakistan currently possess?
