Always surprises me how many Admirals we have for a relatively small Navy

Germans must of given us assurances on these engines then backed out last minute, must of been for a major reason as this will damage their credibility as arms suppliers. Anyway, I say f**k'em, eventually China, South Korea and Turkey will be producing world class sub engines, just that we need...

I am surprised that spares have not been blocked but reality is that the minimum in cooperation is continuing it seems. We held a exercise just last month with USAF in Pakistan and as recently as late last year contracts are still being awarded for updating the AIDEWS on the F-16s and extending...

Germans will not be bothered about us now, after Russia/Ukraine they are about to embark on a massive rearmament programme and almost double their defence budget. They are taking Euros 100 Billion from 2022 budget alone to requip. A lot will also be spent on Navy. We are last in line and ouur...

What has he "f**ked up"?

Did not Number 9 and Number 14 get more kills during the Afghan/Soviet war?

Lt Gen Manoj Pande set to become Indian Army chief Read more at: https://www.deccanherald.com/national/lt-gen-manoj-pande-set-to-become-indian-army-chief-1097230.html Interesting as he is an Engineer and also has no experience commanding formations on the Western front.

Appreciate you taking time to translate for us, thank you.

I guess you could take away a few infantry divisions from other corps too, for instance now Western border is much quiter (relative to previous years) can Peshawar XI Corps be done away with and it's area of responsibility taken over by 'Pindi and Quetta Corps? Ultimately we have just 4...

This is good news and long overdue. Pakistan Army is quite big and can do with cutting off a lot of tail. Remember we have a force that is still predominantly light infantry based. Light infantry has it's uses in mountain combat and urban warfare but armoured infantry and mechanised infantry...

Generally mode4rnisation is very well planned, not a response to dwindling numbers. What if most of the shortages are in armour/infantry? Then you get less well resourced battalions and also excess number in the "tail" (logistics, education, catering etc) and lower "teeth" (Infantry/Armour). If...

This is not the "blessing in disguise" you think it is. If numbers of new recruits are dwindling and the average age is rising that is very bad news for what is still essentially an infantry/foot based army. If the overall forces declined with equal percentages at all ages and ranks then that is...

Not sure if August have developed such a version

14 AW139s in service with PAF and around the same number in service with Army

15? Not exactly Christmas is it?

Funny way of admitting defeat...

150-200 fighters will only represent massive targets for the enemy, Singapore, Taiwain etc have at least some distance from their enemies, BD will have little. In modern war the reactions times will be measured possibly in seconds, if you are luck in minutes. A heavily integrated and layered SAM...

I explained already, if you are unable to read and digest my previous posts on this thread, that really is your issue not mine, intresting though that you get personal straight away when people question the mighty IAF... Ah, so no real answers here just personal attacks?

The flight refuelling probe on this thing!? How can they even see the runway when landing!?

Do not bother, he will try and convince you the BARS is an AESA simply because IAF flies the plane and his mislaid pride cannot accept that early 90s tech is no match for 2020s tech....
