What's new

Pakistan will get New Air Defence system within this Year - CAS on ARY News .

what does CAATSA affect specifically in the Pak-US context? W ill it lead to stoppage of deliveries of additional F-16s that pakistan isn't buying? or the AH-1Zs that the US isn't delivering? or the engines for the T-129s that the US isn't signing off on? or the OHP Frigate re-armament that the US blocked?
gas turbines for ships?
the trade surplus?
doing a Cambodia on Pakistan?

There are better options available, depending on what PA/PAF priorities are:

Long Range SAMs:
S-350Aster-30FD-2000 (Export HQ-9)
Missile Range120 km100-120 km125 km
Loadout12 missiles/TEL8 missiles/TEL4 missiles/TEL
GuidanceActive Radar SeekerActive Radar SeekerSARH Seeker
ControlTVC Motor + Lateral ThrustersTVC Motor + Lateral ThrustersTVC Motor
Peak Maneuvrability60 G60 GUnknown (but likely to be ~20g)

S-350 Strengths:
- It has 12 missiles on each launcher
- Sanction proof
- potential integration with a whole range of advanced, low-frequency russian radar systems like the RLM-LE aka Nebo-UM (VHF/UHF band, 600 km range), the RLM-DE aka GAMMA-DE (L-band, 600 km range) and RLM-S aka GAMMA-S radars

FD-2000 Strengths:
- it can be potentially upgraded with longer range missiles
- potential integration with a variety of chinese radars

Medium Range Options:
There are a lot of medium range options available:
1) Camm-ER/Land Ceptor (40+ km range)
2) Umkhonto-ER-IR (30km) and Umkhonto-R (60km)
3) HQ-16C (70 km)
4) Hisar- O+

But the best option would be to wait for the Turkish SIPER which is expected to debut in 2023 with a multi-missile configuration, and a maximum range of 150+ km.

Fs-2000 is 125miles or 200 km later version are better and with dual seekers and active plus more range but range is less important vs pk, eccm and quality is
 
. .
YJ-18 anti-ship cruise missiles with a strike range of 340 miles, CJ-10 land-attack cruise missiles (range 932 miles) and HHQ-9 surface-to-air missiles which can engage aircraft up to 186 miles away.

That’s is 300km range 4 hq9

Don't know about radars. But discussions are still underway for an air defense system meant to full fill Air Force demands.

Yes TPS77 never came . It was pretty obvious , so now which one are we getting and any idea what those low level radars were.
TPS43 & LAADS also need a replacement now ,

A very realistic option for PAF. I was expecting Italy to offer something sooner or later hence always thought PAF would have an option for a western system, hopefully we see it soon.
