What is the Best fighter jet for Pakistan Navy Aviation?

[Nishan_101]

I am with that Navy should go for 30 JF-17s Block-IIs including 7 dual seat. Later, they can go for another 30 Block-IIIs by 2018.

Would not mind seeing few C130 gunships in the inventory for naval and marine air support.Navy would need its own base airbase either base faisal could be transfered to the Navy or masroor could be extended.

So these C130 maybe used for pick n drop of military people families on Eids etc?

If we had the money, then J-11B would have been perfect. As we don't guess the JF-17, or wait till our economy improves.

PN is probably never going to get a dedicated shore-based Naval Attack squadron, but if it did, then the french Super Etendard with the Exocet ASM would be a great cost effective addition.

ETENDARD is no longer in production.......a second hand perhaps, yes.

for any Navy which have to provide air support from land bases to its fleet it needs long range fighter / bomber as per their needs and resources, and J-11B & F-18s fits well in this category but sadly due to economic situation and geopolitical situation PN can't afford this luxury.

I think many of you have fallen off the boat.
What the country needs is not masses of many different aircraft or new types in the near future.
Bin everything but the F16s and the FC1s. Invest in modifying them and weapon load and rather invest in counter insurgent aircraft and helicopters to support economic stability for the country. Poking India doesnt serve your interests. Regional stability does. Thats how Russia, India and China have emerged. The threat to your sovereignty has already invaded it. Your other threat is from the north. Do it the Swedish way and lower cost through commonality. Quality not quantity. At the moment you just look like a bits and pieces force to the rest of the world. Your obsession with US equipment also seems crazy. Do China or do Europe and keep it simple.

Why have the two of you restarted a four yr old thread?

currently its the Mirage with AM-39 Exocet ASM - in future it will be the JF-17 with the C-802 or the AKG.

Well, since the CM400AKG has been tested on JF17, it would definitely be there along with the C802/3 of course.

 

[Zarvan]

I would love to see 54 J-11 C backing our Navy

It would be great to see some footage some day, Thunder releasing CM400AKG and C802

Modi is in power. Your wish might come true.

Politicians say anything to get votes, what happens afterwards is different story

If both the navy and air force invest production facilities could improve, more and better jf17s for everyone!
