I stopped writing anything in this forum since last year Indian occupation of kashmir and no reply from our side. But Mastan khan's brutal and correct analysis forced me to take part. When I was in school in 1989,s at that time science digest was a magazine to inform us about defence updates as...

And Mastan bhai , when I was a kid , I read an article on F16 in mid 80,s . At the end , when I read that it can carry 6 air to air missiles, I went into shock. This aircraft was so much appreciated, that I thought, in one mission it could destroy At least 40 enemy aircrafts................ And...

Mastan bhai let's kids rock. Have you seen pictures of jf17 block imagination with kanards and special inlets. I think jf17 block 52 will be like B2 shape.

Mastan Khan. I,m an old fan of you and you live in a realistic world. Can you point out, what PAF 10 years plane should be?

Now India is going for 90 Grippen C/D . Almost confirmed. Can anyone tell me what making hurdles for Pakistan to procure 50 J10 at 2 billion dollars??? Or to get 24 second hand Eurofighter from italy? How longer we will wait?

I,m constantly in favour of j10b. Because of less price comoared to European fighters and technologically and aerodynamically superior to JF17. Few squadron of it will help us stop gape measures till j31 or anything else. It will be equipped with most moderen chinease avianics, radar, weapons ...

Every second week, a new aircraft emerges on these pages. Su35, then mirage 2000 and now typhoon. Hope we will get one

First of all I,m thankful to Masthan Khan conforming that our great air force has chooses jf17 over j10. Before it's induction in our air force, someone had told me that jf17 will be our mainstay fighter, not j10 ??? And I was surprised at that time.... There is no comparison between the two...

Mastan khan. You are 100 percent right.Every PAF chief knew our weaknesses and forthcoming shortages after 1990. If you remember one of PAF chief,s interview ( I think by 1998) it was one of the most disappointing interviews by any general ever and he highlighted all weakness and indian coming...

Still I insist on j10

I want to say something different tonight. It was PAF plane to get 111 F16 by the end of 1996. It was keeping the air force up to date. This is end of 2016 and we have 78 F16. Means we are 20 years late. What we should,'ve or rather must have done was to procure 32 Mirage 2000 in 1990,s . We...

I do,t think F16 will be a sitting duck against rafale, though time and again it will need upgradation.As I,ve mentioned , indians are now searching for single engine fighter aircraft to replace big numbers( Mig21,s and 27,s). So most probably do,t think of Grippen to be offered to us( Indian...

Well. 1.4 billion dollars were to be paid for 36 j10 as it was planned before. Maybe, with new systems its price goes to 50 million dollars. But we have to pay for it. 1.8 billion dollars in 4 years spane is nothing. Consider if we were back in 2003 era, where we had only 32 F16 with no BVR...

I do not see any Russian fighter in PAF colours. Russia is to sell S400 after 2 weeks and multi billion dollars defence deals in pipeline. European fighters We can,t purchase as eurofighters are very Costly and Grippen , india may purchase soon as now hunt for single engine fighter has begun...

No. F16 acquisition was never nullified by mirage 2000 or mig29. Mirage 2000 look down capabilities were not up to the standard and mig29 was just point defence air superiority fighter. Even now F16 is called su30 beater
