My selection of AK 103 above as the preferred rifle for PA has held true. Pakistan to place an order with Russia very soon for thousands of units is the news I hear today. Good Choice PA

The biggest drawback and ENEMY barring local companies to get into defense production is the NO COST, NO OBLIGATION BASIS policy of the armed forces. This means that they want all the development cost to be borne by the manufacturer while providing ZERO GUARANTEES and ZERO FUNDS into the entire...

Afghans Dumbwits should know better regarding two cardinal rules of combat NEVER bite the hand FEEDS you (Afghan Transit Trade) NEVER start anything that your enemy has to FINISH

Besides RAVEN, Army has been currently offered MUAV's from France, Germany, Korea, Poland, Estonia etc. Yes this has been going on since 2011. Army bought Mini UAV system from SATUMA thereafter. But the SATUMA system is giving problems in Camera detection, identification etc. Army asked...

Its NOT free or under FMS! Army is buying it through its own funds!

Latest reports suggest that PAKISTAN ARMY HQ is again being forced to buy the Raven Mini UAV System made by the Aerovironment Group (USA) for its foot soldiers. The same system has already been rejected by the Indian Army last year due to poor performance during trials. Pakistan Army is very...

Lip Service Only! South African National Defense Committee that approves or disapproves major defense deals is influenced by Indian origin South Africans that scuttle every major defense deal when it comes to Pakistan. That is why South Africa until today has never been able to sell anything to...

Pakistan is looking for a top attack ATGM because India has inducted the SPIKE from Israel recently. Eventually and keeping in view the cost constraints as well, Pakistan will go for the Chinese Red Arrow 12 top attack ATGM. Getting it from elsewhere will be difficult if not entirely impossible.

^^ Try to concentrate on the subject at hand .. If you can't ... Don't post jibberish!

Did not say it never happens. Read the comment again for proper assimilation of what I said! Same goes for you too @Irfan Baloch .....

Pappu Jee ... both examples you have given may be stop gap first level training measures though in my experience I have never seen ground based AAA or MANPADS firing at towed targets. They always fire at independent drones with either propeller based or jet based engines. Towed targets do not...

@Irfan Baloch the target types you have listed are for air-air firing practice and not for ground-to-air air defense purpose. And generally these targets are not towed at 2.5 Mach but at much lower speeds by the aircraft. High speed tow will shred the targets to pieces before they can even be...

There is no training drone in the world with a speed of Mach 2.5! Even if their is one to be made it will be too expensive for Pakistan Army to operate and maintain!

Thank you gentlemen for the information above. But my information is that the speed of the locally made target drones is very less to provide realistic training to the AD personnel of the Army. Similarly the Navy is not using any of the locally made drones as well. Army is also using some...

What kind of aerial targets does the Pakistan Armed Forces use to train operatives of Air Defense battalions? I have heard that a mix of locally made and Chinese aerial targets are used. Any information or confirmation from other members?

I share your observation as well. The LUNA crash I was quoting was a few weeks back and it was pictured & reported all over the media as well. It was deemed to be flown by the 'Rangers'. I did not know about the Luna crash in the marsh areas. Was the PN testing it under local acceptance trials...

Luna cannot be operated from a ship simply because its retrieval mechanism is quite complicated. It requires a large net and accompanying cranes that cannot be installed on ships. LUNA will remain for land use only and probably by the PN Marines in marsh areas next to India. Its a limited...

Superb! Indigenous and Iron Clad! Well done to LUMS and the two chaps!

Can anyone confirm if PN is using LUNA UAV System? I have not seen any media reports or photos or even any buzz related to the use of the said UAV by the PN post its sale contract in 2012.
