our country's armed forces believe that the best defence is a good offence & a mobile moving defence rather than a stationary target! hence PAF always invests in fighters and not so much in SAMs!
SAM systems are too costly & can be destroyed by SEAD operations. hence pakitan with its limited resources avoids good SAM systems.
the first GULF WAR showed how a SAM system can be annihilated by a major super power on the first night of hostilies! hence PAF is not keen SAMs unfortunately.
It's old strategy....There should be a balance in offensive as well as in defensive capabilities...!!!
