In a week Pakistan lost 2 UAVs one of PAF & one of PN both were near border area, is it possible that India may have jammed their communications to show their capabilities??

Could the Z-18 ASW replace the Seaking Mk-45 in PN service.

"While they (PLAN) finally have a Y-8 maritime patrol aircraft, it's still years behind P-3C and serving too small in number"

F-27 PN.

Z-18F should be able to serve on CV-16 along with large future combatants likes Type 055 and LHD/LPD classes. Z-18F is larger than other ASW helicopters like SH-60, NH-90 and Ka-28. It can carry more sonobuoy and has more snobuoy openings than SH-60. It can also carry dipping sonar along with up to 4 Torpedoes. The rest of the electronics and combat system has been upgraded from Z-8 with a new large surface search radar and modern MAWS and RWR antennas. It also has the range to really hunt modern nuclear submarines. That's why it is expected to be a part of the air wing of CV-16 and future Chinese carriers
