What's new

Pakistan Naval Aviation - Updated

In Mönchengladbach we are still waiting for new Pakistani ATR-72’s. Any new developments? Or is there no money for new conversions?
In the last quarter of the year........In all probability will conside with the retirement of Admiral Niazi
 
Yankees don't allow third party modifications on their platforms. Sea Sultan is PNs own so they can modify it however they want.
Found it, post 328


Americans had put Aim-9 on P-3C and I had mentioned ATR in that context.

The ones supplied to PN lacked this capability. We tried to do it on our own but they refused.

The Westland Lynx is a British multi-purpose military helicopter designed and built by Westland Helicopters at its factory in Yeovil.

Originally intended as a utility craft for both civil and naval usage, military interest led to the development of both battlefield and naval variants, which went into operational usage in 1977 and were later adopted by the armed forces of over a dozen nations, where it primarily serves in the battlefield utility, anti armour, search and rescue (SAR) anti submarine warfare roles.

In 1986 a modified Lynx broke the airspeed record for helicopters, which still stands today. The helicopter is now produced and marketed by Agusta Westland.

3 Lynx Mk.3 were used by Pakistan Navy for anti-ship / anti-submarine / transport duties. These aircraft were retired from service in 2003.

I think the Lynx turned out to be a disaster for Pak navy, they were retired way too early.
