Well this is another big and good news. Finally Pakistan has started to head in the right direction and InshaAllah soon will be a more financially stable and peaceful nation. However the thing to watch out for, would be how to tackle Afghanistan issue? As long as the issue remains it will always...
At the moment PN must concentrate that they get the 8 subs on time and with as many as possible produced indigenously. Pak must take this opportunity and try to turn it into another JF-17 thunder like project which can act as a launching pad for our future indigenous projects. We have previously...
Point is not whether PAC produces 20 or 25 aircraft a year, both the numbers are fine until the meet the targets set. As far as I have read almost everywhere whether it be ACM's interview, PDF or any other source they have been saying PAC/PAF is looking and evaluating AESA, IRST, new Engine or...
First thing first Thunder was never ment to be a heavy fighter so the people who want it to able to take as many weapons as MKI, that would never happen. Thunder was seen as an option that could be indigenously developed inorder to replace the F-7 and Mirages and that too with some increased...
No as of now TAI does not posses such capabilities. The biggest hindrance would be the radar and the avionics upgrade that US still hasn't disclosed (as per my sources). If Turkish were able to do that they would have first upgraded their own fleet but since that is not the case PAF at the...
No doubt that JF-17 has been a great success and is one of the most potent low cost platform available in the market. However that does not mean that we start linking it with one or another airforce every now and then.
First it was Myanmar then Sri Lanka then Indonesia (I guess) then there were...
71 IS HISTORY brother ever since bangladesh decided to part ways Pakistan has grown stronger and stronger. Well no one is under estimating anyone here but entire world knows Haseena is way too much in Indian control.
And if you still continue to disagree with the last part its totally OK with...
bigger economic bloc is in Pakistan's favor however it is very important that Iran must be a part of that bloc. If Iran is left and it falls in Indias hands then it can be a worrying situation for Pakistan however that doesn't seem to be the case since it is very difficult that India can...
Good to see that a deal that was supposed to be signed atleast 5 years ago has finally become a reality.
However my personal opinion is that, 200+ MKIs post a bigger threat then 36 Rafale. However if the numbers are taken to the originally planned 126 then the story would be totally different...
Bottom line is that Pakistan learned a lesson from 90's sanctions (and USA has realized that), took the required precautions. Previously Pakistan was dependent on USA for almost anything but things have changed now. USA's actions has pushed Pakistan further into China's lap and as a result our...
No doubt PAF's pilots are one of the best trained in the world but what happened in the past has become the part of past. Back then we were technologically on par if not advanced then our adversary but today we have neither the matching quantity nor quality.
There was a similar thread made sometime ago as well. It was claimed that PAF would acquire 40 high end fighters however the high end fighter was not named then.
There is no doubt that we are in a dire need of a potent platform and in numbers. However as far as Eurofighter and Su-35 are...
The news is good since if PAF goes against IDF then there will be something to learn. However IMO both the sides if even come face to face would play easy and wont reveal their tricks. On the other hand I think PAF pilots learn more when they go against chinese flankers, Turkish and Emirati F-16...
Well done Pak Armed Forces its high time, we should not allow Pakistan to become the recruitment center for Syria where KSA and Iran are fighting their personal wars at the price of innocent Syrian lives. I would doubt the source but not the news since this is not the first time I have heard...
Used F-16 are a good but only a temporary solution. If PAF plans to purchase these jets they must find them in large numbers, at least 100 more and in 5 years, just 15 from Jordan wont do the job. As far as F-16 from Europe are concerned there would be potentially around 200-250 available...
No doubt JF-17 is turning out to be a really good platform something that most African and certain Middle Eastern and Asian airforces look for and will find attractive.
However in reality you just don't need a good platform you need a strong diplomacy that can withstand and veto pressures from...
First of all its not USA that can hinder the Su-35 deal its our neighbors. They are involved with Ruskies in at least a dozen defence deals that costs in billions $$$ and PAF or Pakistan in general can hardly purchase weapons worth a billion $$$. So that there can be the one and only hurdle...
A really good news indeed. Pak-Turk relations are getting as close as Sino-Pak relations which is a good sign. Moreover Iran's involvement is a pleasant sign too. We should improve our bilateral relations with Iran or else there is a high chance they'll become a part of our adversary's plan...
