Pakistan Air defense

Pakistan should in the future focus on indigenous development with mainly Turkish help with radar systems, and air defense but cooperation with Arab states (Egypt, and KSA mainly) who are developing radar systems with TOT from nations such as South Africa, and are beginning to produce long, and short range radars. Chinese are great partners for Pakistan but it doesn't seem like they want to give TOT to nations and say "assembling" a lot of tech is giving technology to them. Pakistani engineers cooperating with foreign engineers on joint development of radar tech is a great idea in order for Pakistan to be self sufficient, and I'm sure that if Pakistan can develop CMs it can develop SAMs.

Turkish systems

KALKAN radar from Aselsan (100 km range)
- three dimensional radar system for low and medium range air defense mission operations. Benefiting from its electronic scanning capability in elevation and multi-beam architecture, the radar enables fast and accurate detection and tracking of low altitude air targets in three dimensions, providing the air picture for the command & control system.

Fire control radar from Aselsan-(30 km range)
is a short range 3-D tracking radar for land and naval air defense weapon system applications. The radar allows for integrated guns to be directed and locked on to targets, and thus, is suitable for use as the tracking radar in mobile air defense weapon systems. Its naval version accurately addresses naval Close-In Weapon Systems (CIWS).

Mobile Search Radar from Aselsan (70km)-
Short range 3D search and track radar for mobile air defense weapon systems and point air defense of critical assets. The radar can track multiple targets accurately, adding classification and identification information to each target track. The system has been designed specifically for tracked vehicle integration and may be used as the main vehicle-mount search radar for low altitude air defense command control and missile systems.

Egyptian systems

ESR-32A air traffic control, and surveillance radar 250 km-

The 2D L band radar is a fully solid-state radar system that incorporates the latest technologies into an airport surveillance radar system. “The ESR-32A offers the best value and high performance at a competitive price and its ease of maintenance will deliver significant operating cost savings,” a company official says. The ESR-32A has been designed to operate in networked or stand-alone mode to support joint or independent operations of the Egyptian air force. The matched filter hardware facility can be dynamically reconfigured to instantaneously adapt to a variety of coded transmitted waveforms. The array antenna type has a claimed antenna efficiency of greater than 40 percent and the radar has an average transmitted power of 800 watt. The ESR-32A has been developed by the Department of Technical Research and Development, belonging to the Ministry of Defence.

If MDA site info is correct hq-9b version is 300 km range and hq-9c will be s-400 class system with active seeker

If 9b is 300 km range than just 3 systems will cover major Easter border complexes and one can be deployed covering coast line including gawadar, pasni, omara and sea with turbat as deployment site
 
Most of them were turbo propeller and Mig 29 was a very advance plane of the time.

Considering the limitations of turbo propeller and absence of any percision weapons AA were effective specially considering they could hide themselves in terrain but is it true in current modern warfare ?
