Pakistan to buy 40 SU-35 or Euro Fighter soon

[volatile]

For short PAF is considering only 2nd hand stuff.

Did they informed you about 2nd hand stuff ? On a serious note PAF needs an additional platform for maritime duties / deep penetration

Yeah since we might be getting SU35's, why not subtract 1 and get SU34 also .

In your dreams only.
Such visits are Mainly of ceremonial nature and have little strategic value other than a few tea coffee talks.
Infact Putin has decided not visit Pakistan as there is little or no substance for his visit:

IMO Air superiority is a must and we need a platform that can secure skies ,SU34 is a nice bird but bomber what we need big daddy SU35 coupled with A2G/Sea weapons ,reduced cost and confirm aerial deniability to enemies

Much likely to go towards EURO fighter because the GCC already has it and facilities have high concentration of Pakistani man power which can be absorbed into Pakistan acquisition.

I would agree. However, weapon acquisition now also looks at geo-politics. Any purchase from Russia will send Indian and russian relation tumbling down the spiral.

Maybe an ignorant question(Don't know much about this), but why are they not going for F 35? I heard it's going to be the next big thing.

 

[Hassan Guy]

Why?

It is but we had enough of american products they attach too much strings with their aircraft,so much so they have made PAF think ahead of american planes and are looking both east and west for a suitable alternative.

 

[Bratva]

Where does it say Typhoon or Su-35?

Is @Quwa and @Bilal Khan (Quwa) two sides of same coin or Quwa is passing through a split personality phase ?

Paf has direct contact with this GOT character named troll indian.

But we need to expand our f-16 block 52 fleet.

 

[Ind4Ever]

Policy has to changing every Air Force is going for double engine and most 5th Generation are double engine so it's we get our things straight


42000 is great increase type to turning Para Military into some sort or National Guard equipped with Tank Destroyers and Light Tanks and IFV and MRAP and finally light attack helicopters like Z-19 or similar


Really keep thinking that we would be ordering these Jets soon

OK

2nd hand F-16 will keep coming from different countries and will be upgraded in Turkey

the biggest dilemma of sukhois is its mantainence its a terrible pain in the neck cant ignoare it cant escape it either and thats with all russian hardware one of the key problems for why India started to diversify with western equipment even when russian equipment is half the rate of there western counterparts they tend to take more time and resources to keep them in usable condition hence end up more expensive in due course of time

but what is PIA ?

Sir PAF's backbone had been F-7's and F-7 PG's (Chinese versions of Mig-21) , before that PAF was extensively using F-6 (Chinese version of Mig-19) , so I believe PAF has extensive experience of handling non western military equipment !!!
