Plane is pretty much intact. Looks like a crash landing where the plane ended upside down after landing due to some bumpy terrain.

Despite issues with gaining certain technology transfers for theAltay, Turkey could begin serial production of the main battle tank as early as this May, according to Defense Minister Fikri Isik. Pakistan and some Gulf nations are believed to be lined up as potential customers for the vehicle. Talk of potential delays to the Altay surfaced when local contractor Tümosan was unable to continue working on providing a domestic diesel engine for the tank, after Austria’s AVL List GmbH, which it had as a technical support partner, ceased working with the Turkish firm amid concerns that the Turkish government were sliding on human rights issues. It now looks like Ankara may instead turn to Ukraine for help, with the Altay possibly adopting the Kharkiv Morozov Machine Building Design Bureau’s (KMDB) 1,500 hp 6TD-3 diesel engine.

INDUCTION OF LY–80 LOMADS IN PAKISTAN ARMY AIR DEFENCE: LEAP TOWARDS RANGE AND LETHALITY

Pakistan Army Air Defence is undergoing regime transformation with induction of long range weapon systems on its inventory. In this context, first combat unit of LY-80 Low to Medium Altitude Air Defence System (LOMADS) has arrived Pakistan in January 2017. This Chinese origin weapon system is capable of tracking and intercepting multiple targets including Fighter Aircraft, Cruise Missiles, Air to Ground Missiles, Anti-Radiation Missiles, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Armed Helicopters at longer ranges.


The weapon system has excellent electronic counter measures and high kill probability. The system is fully capable of providing low to medium altitude area air defence to national and strategic assets, field formations and maneuvering forces. Digitized Surveillance Control and Reporting node has also been configured in LY-80 LOMADS for its complete integration with Air Defence System of Pakistan.


Procurement of LY-80 weapon system necessitated training of troops of Army Air Defence for its dexterous employment. The training was organized at Shanghai China, wherein officers and soldiers of Army Air Defence acquired knowledge of operating, deploying and maintaining the weapon system. After comprehensive training by the Chinese experts, the trained air defenders are fully ready to exploit the true capabilities of LY-80 LOMADS against wide spectrum of aerial threat at all times. 


Induction of LY-80 LOMADS is indeed beginning of a new era in Army Air Defence. It has strengthened the Sky Shield of Pakistan and enhanced the capabilities of Army Air Defence manifold. Availability of LY-80 LOMADS would add to deterrence against an intruder aerial platform due to its range, lethality and accuracy.

Any idea how many regiments will be formed of LY-80??

 

[syed_yusuf]

What is the range of Pakistan version of ly80

During Pakistan day parade it was mentionedas 40km

Bangladesh version inducted at 70 km

Chinese version marketed as 70km

So what is correct

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

its from latest issue of MSI journal,its about light guns which will be produced in pakistan POF,even civil people can get them from POF for example sarsılmaz ST9

Sarlimaz handguns like ST & B series are already being produced by POF;

Well I know Pakistan is looking for new handguns and we are testing few of them including Beretta APX and others but I don't want to see more of this company products our guys are already not satisfied with B-6

Sarlimaz/POF initial batches were faulty and I remember seeing a POF ad regarding exchange of faulty guns for a new & improved weapon.

I think LY80 will be subordinated to various AD units.

POF has failed miserably to produce state of art handguns and arms for civilians and sports purposes. Our mentality is of 60's and not for future

POF is a military organisation. It never envisaged to produce sporting equipment. Having said that, all our military organisations of this type lack a professional marketing department which could be run by civilian employees. The JF17 program is probably the only one which has a joint Pakistan - China marketing company. The other issue is the upgrading of the existing production lines esp for firearms to improve their overall quality.
