OR may be you get it all wrong. Briefing was about Pakistan's response strike mission in which No F-16 took part. F-16s were part of fighter sweep ... when DG ISPR said No F-16 was used, he was clearly pointing towards original Swift Retort strike. Mig-21 and MKI were shot down when they tried...

Biggest take away for me was the fact that if you have fanatic government and media, you can get the highest military honor even after getting hit, and being captured by the enemy.
On a serious note, this incident showed the value of EW/Spectrum warfare. Sooner you occupy the entire...
Yes, Turkey can build all of those without Pakistan and, I am saying this seriously. But if you listen to the words of TAI's chief there is a big elephant in the room which can't be ignored and Mr. Kotil talked about it i.e. "I don't have enough engineer in Turkey". This is what Pakistan brings...
If 25 J-10CP are coming by the end of this month, will they all go in a single squadron? i.e. Sq. 15.
As we know PAF is reportedly going for around 60ish J-10C, it means there must be at least one new squadron i.e. increase in Sq strength. But if that happens it would be interesting to see under...
I think this latest development is not a goal in itself but a mean to get something further. PAF is looking to integrate Eastern weapons with Western fighter usually, it used to be a other way around. Chinese platform would get a European avionics/weapon package PGs is a prime example. For...

And how our preparations can continue without a regionally interconnected economy? We are building linkages North-South with China, but markets relies on in our east and west. If we are not an enabler of these markets in terms of interconnectivity, we are...
I for one also didn't like ACM's body language ... He looked like as if he is trying to make his PoV or understand what IK is throwing at him without stopping.
On a lighter note! It looks like ACM is looking for that pause where he can enter the PM's speech which must have begun like "Dakihye...
Have no idea if I am supposed to laugh here or cry! Have you noticed how much of GDP we are spending on defense compared to them? Have you noticed what it translates in terms of billions of USD they are spending on their armed forces? Have you noticed per soldier spending by each country? Did it...
It's really a pity who thinks of him as anti-vaccine without listening to what he actually said and what he said and you quoted makes perfect sense. Natural immunity is always better than vaccine induced immunity no matter which infection we are talking about.
No army can crwal on empty stomch .... and Pakistan is learning this. I have followed NSA Moeed Yousaf for years through talk shows, his writings etc. He always said with conviction that the conventional balance of power between India and Pakistan is fast tilting towards India and if this...
The region is going to spiral down towards a more violent trajectory. Recovery from there would not be easy. Or is this part of some pretext under which at some point in time, Iran will be attacked by Israel using Arab state soil?
Well, reading last 2 pages I have reached the conclusion that this thread must be locked for reply till the arrival of J-10C, if the news is true:stop::stop:
You are mistaken here my friend. That response was after he said J-10 induction is routine matter and then a journalist cited Sheikh Rasheed's statement about 25 jets on that DG ISPR said " I can't confirm anything on that account" .... See, here 'that account' means the exact number of J-10s...
Don't forget the removal of hydraulic backup in FCS and then enhanced use of composites. Not only it carries additional hardware, it will also carry a pair of extra larger PL-15s as well due to dual racks.
