The APG-68 out classes the BARS in almost every area, as does the AMRAAM v the R-77.
The fact you have bestowed the title of "AMRAAM Dodgers" instead of "F-16 Killers" on the SU-30 competes not only this argument but my last post on this. Feb 27rth told us everything we want to know about the...
Again, easy to see why you are the forum clown, am sure another ban is around the corner.
The BARs radar is a generation older then the APG-68 and two generations behind the KLJ-7A.
The Rafale is a superb piece of kit and very modern but lets not kid ourselves about the SU-30. With no upgrades...
So glad pilots and people on the ground are safe. This is the ultimate strength of PAF now, we lose a JF-17B and in a few months can churn out a replacement. IAF lose a Rafale or SU-30 then they have to run to Russia or France....
More you post crap, the more desperate you get. China has a massive impact on the Indian Air Force (check out title of this thread, may surprise you).
" After two years of evaluation and negotiations, on 30 November 1996, India signed a US$1.462 billion deal with Sukhoi for 50 Russian-produced...
UAE, Saudi, Kuwait and Qatar navies are all very small relative to air strength and major reason why the need US naval protection.
Navies are very manpower intensive. Just for one Frigate you need a crew of 100 trained men plus 10 officers, most navies have two crews per ship, so 200 men plus...
Good luck protecting it against moderns SSKs. Feb 27th you kept your sole carrier in Bengal sea.
with 42 MIG-29s and a servicability rate of 35% as well as training and maintenence, how did your (admittedly strange) math come up with 24 planes on the deck?
You know you are agreeing with me right? The fact that the SU-30s were kept at bay by F-16s and could not influence the fight or even get off a shot but had to preserve themselves (as you admit) says everything. No reason to think things will be any different in the future unless the SU-30 gets...
As you say, it is not a full AESA and certainly will not keep up with the very latest AESAs from the West and China, who incidentally, have had 30 years developing ECM/ECCM to specfically counter the N011. The fact the SU-30s have not been though any sort of MLU in 30 years clearly shows it...
Yeah, many were super confident on Feb 27th too.....
PAC will start churning out AESA equipped planes, so rather then talk lets see what happens....
The current SU-30 is still using technology from the early 90s. That is 30 year old radars, although the Bars is powerful it will easily be...
This is the most stupid and ill informed post I have read by an Indian poster on this forum, and trust me that is some pretty stiff competition. US Navy worried about PLAN taking over from them. They are LIGHT YEARS ahead of IN.
They will be fielding a carrier in the Ford class size and SSBNs...
Ye3s, totally agree on teh Israeli example, and even Indian observers mention the strides PAF has made compared to IAF in these matters. On Feb 27th a network centric PAF performed well. The investments made in training and AEW show this. I would argue here IAF needs to catch up in terms of more...
