We do not even match up Pakistan as far defence goes: IAF Vice Chief

I think you need to get some knowledge bro. India is buying only 36 Rafales and 12 S-400 SAM batteries. And Indian Officials never confirmed any news about the Su-35.

On the other hand Pakistan has confirmed advanced AH-1Z Viper Attack Choppers+ Z-10+ MI-35+ More F-16 Block 52+ J-31 is also in the cards. And you all know about the news of Su-35.

Rafale's Quantity will be increased once we get the delivery they're quite on numbers because of Russians Displeasure. Not 200 but defiantly 2 more sqd's . 12 Sam-400 is a very damn good number man. the Su-35 was a misplaced news.. it was meant for the upgrade of Su-30mki to super Sukhoi standards which is similar to Su-35.

as for AH-1Z and Z-10 we'll have Apache's and LCH in bigger numbers than yours. F-16 you're getting only 8 not a big issue and ya we've the news of Su-35 that's never coming to Pakistan... trust me you'll get the clear picture next month. and some new news about india getting FGFA/Pak-fa also i need to remind you about Navy acquiring F-35

No news about Rafale quantity increase. And you must be knowing Pakistan will acquire HQ-9 ( S-300). Nearly 16 batteries will be aqcuired. And about su-35....

Russian officials have confirmed. Alexy Y Dedov says Pakistan can buy anything it wants to buy from Russia.

It'll be increased once the deliveries begin. for IAF's size 36 is not enough that's why IAF officials kept on asking GOI to buy more, the reason for the signing of the deal and increasing the numbers is because of the Russian Pressure. Rafale negotiations finished all they need is to sign the deal but it was delayed to end of the year (mostly jan 26th when Holande is coming to India) because not to anger the Russians, Modi is going to Russia in December to give contracts to Russia from FGFA,Nuke Sub,Frigate,S-400 which will calm down the russians and then India can sign the deal with french.

Pakistan is in Talks with Chinese since 2011-12 about the batteries but no news, becasue of the costs.. HQ-9 was not really effective that's the reason China itself went on with S-400.

Ya Even Russians were about to sell mig-29 su-27 to PAF when India Decided to go for Mirages, then India had to limit the numbers of Mirages and give a huge order for Su-30.. these are pressure tactics brother.. Once Modi goes to Russia all this will be sorted out

Were you there at the test of HQ-9? If USAF had F-22 why they inducted f-35? Was the F-22 Inferior?

Salute your Logic

FGFA won't become a reality before 2025 we know that. By the time PAF will have 250 JF-17 ( Can be less because of orders)

Why do you induct JF when you've F-16????

F-22 is a Air superiority stealth fighter while F-35 is for ground Strike with Less stealth than F-22 and F-35 for exports while F-22 only for USAF

Russia will sell its military equipment to Pakistan UNLESS India stops Rafale order

We do not even match up Pakistan as far defence goes: IAF Vice Chief

NEW DELHI, Nov. 19 (APP) Indian Air Force Vice Chief Air Marshal P K Barbora while complaining against Indian political class for playing politics on military requirements said “as far as defence goes, we don’t even match up with Pakistan.”Playing politics over defence purchases impinged “very badly” on the country’s military requirements,” he told a CII seminar on energising aviation sector in India.

P K Barbora while expressing dissatisfaction also about India’s Defence exports said, “as far as defence goes, we don’t even match up with Pakistan.”“The internal politics over the years is such that whatever defence requirements are cleared by the government, they are opposed by the opposition parties and the same happens when roles change and opposition sits in government, “ he said.

Barbora’s observations on Tuesday about recruitment of women pilots in IAF also generated heated debate in the media.

He had said “they may be recruited as fighter pilots provided they do not become mother till a certain age.” He also suggested that having woman pilots in IAF may be a bad investment for the government.

Today, he said he did not mean that what had been debated in the media over his remarks saying those were his personal views and not the policy of the Ministry of Defence.

Associated Press Of Pakistan ( Pakistan's Premier NEWS Agency ) - We do not even match up Pakistan as far defence goes: IAF Vice Chief

well IAF vice chief knows we cant match pakistan in air force as we niether have devine & highly trained fighter pilots nor DSI tech like them

So the moral is every step has a reason. China is inducting S-400 because they want to get more powerful SAMs. This does NOT mean that HQ-9 is a failure.

FGFA won't become a reality before 2025 we know that. By the time PAF will have 250 JF-17 ( Can be less because of orders)

FGFA's first prototype will come next year. this December R&D Funds will be released to the Russians.. and by 2019-20 first flight will arrive. Come on don't embarrass me.. you've been building JF from 2007 and and its been 9 years and only about 50+ fighters. and what's the use of Building such a low class fighter when we're moving on to 5th Gen??

 

[Gallium Nitride]

JF-17 is not low class as it gives a 4th generation platform. Block-3 will belong to 4+ Generation. And I guarantee you that FGFA won't come into reality before 2020 or 2025. Still we managed to get 71 JF-17 in 9 years but how many Tejas LCA have been inducted till now? 35 years of Hardwork will go in vain unless Tejas MK-1A is introduced early

It does... after all they claimed to improve their fighter performance better than Russian once which they cloned. Finally whatever they build was not good enough they went again to the Russians for Su-35.. As for HQ-9 they've alredy claimed to enhanced/Upgrade them to the level of THAAD and Patriot missile Systems but still they want to buy S-400 why the reason was hq-9's performance was not par with S-300

JF-17 is not low class as it gives a 4th generation platform. Block-3 will belong to 4+ Generation. And I guarantee you that FGFA won't come into reality before 2020 or 2025. Still we managed to get 71 JF-17 in 9 years but how many Tejas LCA have been inducted till now? 35 years of Hardwork will go in vain unless Tejas MK-1A is introduced early

What !! Are you claiming JF's a High end fighter??? Tejas's Mk1A itself has the features of your future mk3... how you're going to gurantee on that?? do you know the main Issue that's going to be cleared with the russisn this December?? its FGFA/Pak-Fa, this month when Defence minister went to Russia, he has given the numbers of fgfa will be bought. and he was there to finish the paper work for the deals so modi can come and sign the deals.. the first deal is FGFA and remember is when the first prototype comes to India by the end of next year or first quarter of 2017. by 2019-20 fighters will land at Indian Bases.

LCA was not allowed or made to not give priority by IAF becasue they wanted foreign mall. If PAF had money thee's no way JF is coming to pakistan at those quantities.. and please stop saying you've managed to build. it was the chinese who build and gave you guys, what you do is build small componants and the rest Assembled in Pakistan.

IAF has already recieved LCA
