Still 2 were shot down. On the other hand PAF F 16 were without bvr at that time too. Today if they fly low we hit them win pan pads and if they fly high we have bvr to take them out. The only thing is PAF need to increase cap durations
The thing with India is that they know their entire Northern border is hot any mis calculation would be devistating as it will be a 3 to 1 war. It's not just PAF they are afraid of but what the Chinese has done with the US Navy is also Haunting the Indians.
There is also some chatter that China might be interested in JF17 as well hence the increased production rate. where will they be fielded and when will be disclosed shortly. This is some thing PAF would like as it would give JF17 a boost in sales.
The only reason why PAF is still continuing to use the Mirages and the limitation of JF17 that can be judged from all the development threads comes down to this:
Historically ground attack aircraft would fly very low to the ground keeping visual contact had their wings mounted on top of the...
If my interpretation of MTCR is correct then this only applies to missiles that are produced by a country and then sold without the other country jointly partnering. If the other country has partnered in development then they have joint ownership of all patents regarding it hence the range can...
Copy rights end after 50 years hence PAF can build any component and parts to make them airworthy. These air frames are designed for 100 year operation hence they still have many years left.
Israeli Kafir are also copes of Mirage V and they are still being offered to Argentine Air Force as...
It looks like PAF is not just buying the Horus upgraded Mirage5s but all 80 that remain airworthy along with spares. May be PAF will rebuild and upgrade them to Horus standards so that it can raise some new squadrons dedicated for navy and land attack roles.
ATR 72 has a higher payload and similar range as that of SAAB-2000.
Sir,
Commercial aircraft are sold as fuselage only and interior is done by the company chosen. Even Engines are sold separately.
Embraer would sell the fuselage GE would provide engines this aircraft would go through a few...
AOA Bhai,

We know that Pakistan army recently wanted to buy the Latest Russian anti tank Kornet. We know that the biggest supplier of these weapons is Egypt so it could be possible that they are being flown here and on the return leg Egypt might be take some things from Pakistan.
Good work so far keeping it civilised.
As far as air war is concerned there are many advantages India has. However at the end it would come out to who blinks first and the tactic used. In air India can come out superior at least on paper where as on ground China would come on top.
we had that approval in 1965 hence no need to ask them again.
EDIT.
If the Americas ask why did we do this tell them in their own language.
WE DID IT ON GRAND MAMA RIGHT. This is what the Americans say when they have been doing business for a very long time (over 50 Years).
Sir, producing an aircraft is not child play. PAF was embarking on a journey that would produce an aircraft for the first time which needed to be equivalent to US 3rd generation F-16 and modified by high end weapons to bring it
at par with any 4th generation aircraft. Limitations that PAF faced...
