Till date Pak Army regular troops don't know what GPS is or use them except for the Aviation guys and the Freedom Fighters are using them. wow.
Strange thing about all these attacks, Uri, Nagrota, Mumbai, Pathankot is that these locations are KMs away from border, these attackers are supposedly...
Personally i would love Pak to get more into defence deals with Turkey as turkey has much much to offer and joint ventures will help both to great extent.
And China & Turkey may become the 2 major defence hubs for Pakistan in future with limited stuff coming from European states as don't see...
Sir, no plan for now to go for hq9. First get hq16, that will take years to get fully inducted and tested and then when satisfied with its performance we may go for a higher range platform.
I am trying to get full info, but from past discussions with some links to insiders, it may seem that cz bren has been selected as smg replacement for ak-47. Army was for past few years trying to replace ak 47s.
If so, then race for assault rifle is still on.
Pak army still going with a 2...
No HQ9. For now its LY-80 meaning hq 16. Recently revealed at raad ul barq exercise tht next month first piece of systems r reaching in pakistan and training at china is complete.
Khaki Kameez Shalwar has been changed to the old Black militia color. This new digital camo is the battle dress.

So for both Frontier Corps KPK & Baluchistan the official dress is black (militia color) uniforms and battle dress are pant shirt with different...
First of all i did not compare the ATGMs of both platforms, or how much each can carry. So i don't understand why you asking ATAK can carry 16ATGMs or not. Plus as i said both platforms can't be compared directly as there is lil bit difference in their specs, plus even if you compare them pic vs...
For desert & plains areas of Sindh / Punjab, Z-10 may not have much of a problem even if it carries 8 ATGMs they might be enough. But real issue would be what load it can take at higher altitude areas especially with respect to our COIN ops & limited areas in hilly locations of AJK. On the other...
But i believe the rumor was posted by a chinese friend and not Pakistanis. It was posted in the Zhuhai airshow thread.
If true, we are ourselves shocked as never heard of any such system being bought.

Dj viper, plz dont make assumptions if u dont have facts correctly. 1st crash had nothing to do with engine, there was prb with the wing which resulted in the crash. 2nd supposed crash has not even been confirmed yet, so we cant say wht it led to.
This 2016 show is the aawwweeesomest of all.
Very cool weapon systems and some of the videos showing accuracy of rocket systems and artillery shells is mind blowing.
If any senior member from Pak military going there, they should now get interested in such weapons as precision is the key in...
Thing to be seen is, this one is from the Panther Sqd based at Peshawar, which previously equipped with Block-I but now replaced them with Block-IIs.
So older Sqds getting newer jets, older jets getting updated and given to new raised sqds.
No 2 Sqd latest to get JF-17, but got Block-1s. Nice.
