What about Super Sukhoi's? No plan to counter it? Or is FC-20 so good that it can take them both at the same time.
BTW isn't it high time that you guys moved on from platform-based counter measures to system-based ones.
According to PAF officer interview (the guy with mustache and glasses ) seriously I am forgetting names dammit , he said only SU30 MKI creates problem to PAF is TVC ENGINE that can evade missiles , but avionics are just as normal.What exactly is a Super Sukhoi? A Su-30 with AESA radar, avionics upgrade and possibly more use of composites? Let it roll out first. FC-20 deal hasn't inked yet, if 50+ a/c are procured along with considerable changes in JF-17 Block-II/III then PAF will be in good shape to tackle them. Not to mention the "six-on-six" AMRAAM carrying capability coming on MLU F-16s too.
Yeahhh...right....According to PAF officer interview (the guy with mustache and glasses ) seriously I am forgetting names dammit , he said only SU30 MKI creates problem to PAF is TVC ENGINE that can evade missiles , but avionics are just as normal.
but THE article states i quote
Islamabad is also expected to order up to 100 FC-10s, to be co-produced by Pakistan Aeronautical Complex as the JF-17. Deliveries are due to begin in 2007. The FC-10 deal would be for 36 of the J-10 variant and would be in additon to the FC-1/JF-17s Pakistan is already taking, this would be the first export of the J-10.
but THE article states i quote
no where it is written it has signed or approved the deal
There has been nothing more than an intent and MoU on co-development(avionics, standardization for the PAF etc)..along the lines the F-7 was purchased for the PAF.
There is as of yet NO purchase order, no money transferred and NO FC-20 beyond a staff requirement and a RFP to CATIC.
For fools who dont believe in j10 for PAF , recently j10 figure was given to PAF chief and that in j10B some pak engineers are also working believe or I dont care PAKISTAN ZINDABAD
What exactly are you trying to say?
Analyst and former fighter pilot Kaiser Tufail expects no new procurements in the near future.
“There is no doubt that the government is facing a very serious funding issue, and modernization programs of all three services are on the back burner,” he said.
“Although I’d like to keep politics aside, I suspect the government is keeping quite a bit of money to come up with various gimmicks just prior to the elections as well as during [vote buying], so defense matters are secondary for the time being,” he added.
One high-profile Air Force procurement project, the FC-20, a Pakistani-specific variant of the Chinese Chengdu J-10 Vigorous Dragon multirole fighter, may be adversely affected by the poor economic and political climate, he said.
Tufail said proceeding with this procurement is “far-fetched for the present.”

Some times we need to look at the real socoa economic factors and the geo political factors too.
Military power is interlocked with FINANCIAL MUSCLE.... since the dawn of time...
Please relate this to PAF and indeed all discussions this way the THREADS remain realistic and interesting
