Low frequency radars have amazing range. Would expand the quality and effectiveness of the Pak national command and control system.
I personally feel that Pak already has a few HQ-9s. More would be nice but I would advocate a local alternative to supplement the HQ-9. Even if this local system is based on tech from Nasr, and isn't particularly accurate or effective at shooting down, it would add a whole new dimension for ingressing Indian fighters. Now they would have to meet PAF while having to maneuver away from SAMs simultaneously. That right there would really make the overall Pak IADS more effective.
I heard from some of my clients (car customers) discussing about S400 SAM system and they were of opinion that in congested airspace where more the 50-60 aircraft ingressing and egressing - altitude differentials this equipment will be next to useless. this weapon requires killing zones which will be hard to maintain. then one of them said..but still how do we take it out..other said...there will be always leakers and sneakers... (i sincerely do not know what are that!)
then they said ...now you understand Su-30MKI, S-400 are made with mind set of Russia big area to defend..larges swaths of space needs defending that is where for them they are best solution. but for Indo-Pak Region they became liability..Su-30MKI size became a liability because of need of fuel to operate at ranges required which is non-essential in Indo-Pak Scenario..You must understand congested airspace and highly contested air space..
