Pakistan's Airborne Early Warning and Control Aircrafts

IMHO, PAF would certainly acquire some Western hardware on F-16's to get them communicated with Erieyes. ZDK-03+JF-17 combo would give real tactical ambiguity to PAF against IAF as except from Pakistan and China, nobody would have exact idea of the true capabilities of these AEW platform.

AFAIK they (F-16 A/B) were carrying a Pod on wingtip in Red Flag....
 
The issue is simple.
The erieye uses Link-16 and so do the PAF falcons.
The protocol that will be used to communicate between the KE and the JF will be different.
To convert both link-16 data and the other protocol on board the Aircraft will require extra processing power and effort.
Instead.. the Erieye also sends its data back to the ground, from where it it sent to the JF via UHF radio.

It may not be efficient.. or as effective as a direct link. but its a cost and effort saving measure.

All aircraft will be able to communicate with each other on secure radio..
Whether its the JF to the erieye, or the KE to the Falcons.

Santro do you think this strategy will work in real time battle field? where JF-17 and erieye working side by side. Time to send data to each is certainly less then sending data to each other through a third party. The time lost in between sending a data to ground and then back to destination aircraft considering atmospheric factors and what if JF-17 is at somewhere where your signal will reach with some distortions. Time loss and Signal distortions in data sending, could they put JF-17 at disadvantage in Real time battlefield?

It would, however, it depends on how many times the picture is refreshed.
for eg.. a single update by an erieye would give a JF a picture of the battlespace.
And all the JF's in that flight have that picture, a picture that is added to by their collective sensors.
So if the picture is coming in every .. say with latency... one or 2 seconds. it still allows the flight to plan out its next move.

what the hell jasoos tiyara mean lolz are they talking abut AWACS or UAV?

think its UAV but if they are trying to mention here AWACS then

They are talking about AWACS because that is what PAF is acquiring in the quantity of 4 , why would PAF be acquiring UAVs in the quantity of just 4, Secondly for UAV our media uses the term "beghair pilot k tayaray" plus you know how dumb our media is in reporting defence news so forgive them for that but these are AWACS
 
Maybe ISPR could do a better job of briefing media and then we would not have such problems with media.

Why always throw blame on ISPR or military related institutes?This is not such a humongous problem that the media needs assistance from ISPR. These are basic terms which any person can know about by simply googling it . I bet you if they had spent atleast 5 minutes googling there wouldn't have been such blunders. Media should be responsible for her words,if they are running such costly channels they should atleast hire some people who have bit of knowledge regarding such aspects and not like lay persons who don't even have slightest of ideas about what they are uttering
 
I think it is responsibility of "Muqtadra Quami Zuban' and "Academy Adbiyaat Urdu" to define specific terms for both UAV and AWACS.
 
sorry i didn,t point of jasoos is pakistan getting awacs or some drone? or any thing stealth
 
If its ZDK03, then news should be "dosra taray"......coz we already have on ZDK03
