Blain 2. The way it sounds to me is that the Co's in SSG needs to be trained to give right directives to Jr's. Once done, than there will be a smooth sailing. I know some Off's and they seem to be of right caliber. There seems to be a problem somewhere in between. But, where? Our guys are good...

I have observed that we have been discussing SSG in cold climate and anti-terrorism situations. But, what happened to these guys when they went to Africa in joint exercise few years back. I don't think they fared well? I hope they have got polished for Jungle and Desert warfare by now.

Echo 1. Which long missions are we talking about? Refueling is done over home country or neutral air space. The speed of all the a/c are brought down between 300~350 Kts and if they loiter else where than they are sitting target of SAM and AAM.

Well, It is now official and in the press that Nawaz Shariff when he was in power had passed state secrets to than Indian PM Gujral. What a Traitor.

I don't agree with my friend in saying that refueling can take place in the vicinity of Lahore or in case of any other city in PK, as all are in easy reach from IAF air bases. A BLIB + 3~4 on there radar can scramble a section of MIG 29 or SU 30 or even Mirage 2000 withh after burner into PK and...

Though it is a good news that PAF is getting 3~4 inflight refueling tankers, but the question is that refueling is done 40,000 ft, so if an a/c is topped up going EWNS there are so many airfields in between with JP4 & Jt-A fuel. There only need would be when ferrying a/c from China or US. Maybe...

Isn't this a smaller copy of Kfir (Israeli version of Mirage).

It is not feasible to install antenna on B727 and these a/c's days are over. I think we should look into small twin engine jets Are we getting IL76 or IL78 as inflight refueling tankers? I believe we are getting four such examples. But the question is that inflight refueling is usually done at...

Well Cheetah 786, don't get so emotional. I am also a Pakistani and have love for for my Motherland. I was simply telling that what RAW is doing in Baluchistan and N/S Waziristan. Rumors are that they are buying Suicide bombers to create panic in Pakistan. Yes! you are right the minority here...

The people of Pakistan are sitting with there "Eyes wide Shut". Because majority are uneducated. Just ask anyone in PK, they will tell you it's our neighbour who is creating all this s--t, but they still watch there movies, TV channels and above all our Media is sitting and doing nothing. Maybe...

Few years back Swedes did offer Grippen to PK and we opted for F-16. I think Senecma engines from France can be installed in Grippen.

He is a True Patriotic Pakistani. He does not go to other countries and talk anti Pakistan like some well known opposition leaders do.

India should be # 11. It has become Heaven for Rapist, Molester, Kidnapping, Murderers and Bribing, etc, etc. Most of the foreigner are sending back there family members to there respective countries. Even the Russian's (friends) are not safe.

I don't understand why PAF is opting for SAAB 2000, which is a Twin Turbo Prop and much slower. We should have gone for the same Erieye, available in Embraer 170 or 190, which would have been much smaller and faster.
