The number will be rather closely linked to the number of J-10Cs, given the tight budgets, it makes sense to induct more L-15s when more J-10Cs arrive. You don’t want to end up in a situation where you have more L-15s than you need because J-10Cs are significantly more expensive and hence might...

The “report” is real, the meaning people understood from it is not, there were no fuel shortages or broken tanks, only gear oil shortages which have been mostly remedied.

The attack had absolutely nothing to do with this acquisition, planning for it has been taking place since well before the attack.

K8-P is an intermediate trainer, the L-15 is an advanced LIFT trainer, different roles and usages. That’s for LIFT training on the JF-17 platform, and it’s also a full fledged fighter, this is for training J-10C pilots. The JF-17B has several other roles to serve given its a fighter aircraft...

The moment people start the conspiracy theory talks, I lose interest, sorry.

Maybe they can’t stop it outright sure, but They can certainly try to be helpful instead of straight up detrimental to the cause by giving as much space to the TTP as possible, but we’re giving them no reason to be helpful. jango summed it up well.

Absolutely agreed. The presence or absence of the US in Afghanistan only ever affected Pakistan/continues to affect it because the country allows it, that is honestly one of my major gripes with either side of the political spectrum in Pakistan as well, whenever something bad happens, blame...

I didn’t say the Taliban are behind them, I said that the Taliban do nothing to stop them. As it stands, Air Force and naval air assets make both easier targets (a plane is far easier to destroy than a tank or a ship) and far more expensive losses, it straight up just makes tactical sense for...

This is exactly the problem, blaming them instead of our own shortcomings, and then they say why nothing ever gets better. Ask the several hundred people who’ve died in the last year due to terrorist attacks how lucky they feel. The lowest amount of terrorist attacks in Pakistan also occurred...

I shouldn’t have to point this out, but that wasn’t an Anti-IK post. It was a very collective failure, many people had the right idea and many people had the wrong idea within the same government and establishment, some of the blame definitely falls on IK too, that being said, his presence or...

We’ve had higher ratios during WoT, 2009 and 2014, but without a major active OP, yes, this is likely the highest ratio. I wonder where all those Pakistanis are now who celebrated the American exit from Afghanistan and the Taliban takeover, the ones who thought all the people who were warning...

Regardless of wether it’s a weak spot or not, I don’t think the guy was aiming for anything in particular, he just placed the explosive wherever he could, though at the end, as he pulls the safety pin, you do see him aim the warhead of the IED towards the tank. It’s basically an improvised...

Yes. But it’s not as commonly used as people might think. APFSDS/T (Chinese 125-1) was still the most common/Standard round in PA inventory despite the induction of Naiza until a few years back.

What makes you think I support this or any form of cruelty that commonly plagues some sections of our armed forces? I condemn them just as much as I do the politicians. Whoever is in power at whatever time equally oppresses this country.

As far as i know, The capability to work with and produce steel of this grade exists within Pakistan and its industry. But something being technically possible doesn’t mean it’s realistically possible, especially given the state of some of our largest steel plants.

Yes we do. Naiza DU has been service since 2001 and can penetrate 550MM of armor around 2000M. BTA4 in PAs inventory can do 600MM, Sejjel can go beyond that even. Though these are very arbitrary and generally pointless figures given the lack of supporting characteristics.

Just because a round is DU doesn’t mean it’s magically better. The best APFSDS in Pakistani service currently is not DU. It is Tungsten alloy. Though PA does posses and use DU ammunition as well.

It is unfortunately true. Even the part where this was played at some (not all or even a majority, but definitely some) campuses of the Army Public Schools is true, and quite frankly embarrasses me to even consider defending the institution that’s doing this. But the truth is that most of the...

While this rather cheap publicity campaigning against certain parties and people and for certain people that we’re seeing recently in the form of documentaries and paid posters and protests in many cities, particularly Rawalpindi, is deplorable and saddening, regardless of its source from within...

SSG switched its camouflage recently and the men on the left are SSG(N) and not SSW. In the complete photo you can see SSW troops with their FN2000s standing further to the left.
