INDEED, the only thing that worries me is the METEOR missile. If we can get the technology or an equivalent i will be happy. The Chinese Airframes and Engines have quarter the shelf life of their nearest Western counterparts.

Gangu propaganda is getting to you a bit too much. No weapon in itself is the final solution. Its not the end of the world.

I see some Over Worrying neighbour.


Na bhai thats his opinion.

Then its a shameful opinion to have.
 
I sense there's an urge for a Western fighter. So, why not just wait for the Turks or South Africans to complete their new BVRAAM projects? I say this because once those AAMs come alive, the PAF can acquire Westernized JF-17 variants (with approved British/European radars, avionics, EW/ECM), and diversify the JF-17 stock. Sure, it isn't the best, but at least the PAF get some benefits of Western technology, but at a much lower cost.

With a Lunatic on the realm of affairs next door,i would tend not to take any chances.

Time is the main factor at the moment.
 
Waste of money, since France will never approve Meteor sale to Pak and US will never approve AIM-120D to Pak (assuming it even gets integrated to EFT).
So at most Pak might get US approval for US AIM-120C which is not worth spending 4+ billion dollar on a new fighter.

Their was a chance of France approving Meteors for PAF but the mpments passed once IAF gave written word to MBDA it will procure 400-500 Meteors over the years.
and risk england, italy, spain getting angry..meteor will come if PAF wants it...how do you think we got SPADA decades ago?
AIM 120 D will come as soon as USA allows it outside its NATO allies i.e after aim 260 comes on line around 2023
the same way as aim 120C5 was allowed 15 years ago
 

Do you not find it utterly shameful that a nation of 220 million souls of just as much intelligence at least, and twice more hard working should rely on beggary & hand outs from its sister nations such as Saudi or Qatari Sheikhdom for its weaponry ?
 
With the daily claims by the Indians of Rafales prowess and game changing attributes, any waste of time will be criminal.
 
Bhaioo.
For God's sake dont open threads like these. Do you not see the financial mess we are in. Even if one talks of loans you need to remember they have to be paid back. The current situation is that without the current IMF package you will go into default.
Now when you talk about EFT, F15s or SU35s 2here do you thi k the money is going to come from. If the current mess was not enough we now have the Covid 19 to deal with. B3fore this infection goes it is seriously going to dent our economy. So let us be realistic. We MAY BE able to upgrade our M3/5s and possibly build block 3s as money has already been allocated. Beyond that only second hand frames of 16s are possible nothing more. So please be realistic and consider what is at stake here. Azm is the future and pivotal to ur long term plans. This is where we should be spending every penny we have.
