The question is what will arm them...

Regarding the Saudi and UAE, in a perfect world i would say yes, but they are money whores who are, under current leadership, far too Fairweather and unreliable for both Pakistan and Turkey. Would avoid them like the plague when it comes to getting them involved in any strategic or even tactical...

Well i dont agree that Pakistan should go it alone. I think @Bilal Khan (Quwa) had suggested exactly what I have been thinking for some time, something I suspect that Turkey has been hoping for Pakistan to realize as well... That the future for medium weight/financed countries is collaborative...

This has been addressed. PAF was never restricted on buying new F-16. In fact Obama admin had approved the sale of an additional 8 jets BUT congress restricted the use of coalition support funds for the purchase of F-16s meaning that PAF can buy them but needs to spend its own money. The fact...

When they say Haibat has anti-sub rockets, im assuming they mean rocket propelled depth charges like the RDC-32? Pictures of the Azmat also appear to have some type of multi-tube launchers behind the AK-630. SO do all the Azmats have anti-sub "rockets" or only the Haibat?

Well, first you need a longer ranged CM for that to be of any relevance. I haven't seen or heard anything to tell me that Pakistan is working to increase the range of Babur beyond 700km. 1000km seems far off, let alone 1500km. Heavy frigate in the 5000t range could do this. Dont necessary need...

Can you expand on how you know or at least in what way ECM on harbah is better. Turkey in general seems to have superior electronics compared to Pakistan. So i find the authorativeness a bit puzzling. Do we really have any significant info about each missile's ECM capabilities in the public...

Glad to hear amout the MILDAS System being able to quadpack. The good thing about CAMM-ER is it justs needs a VLS with enough room as the weapons come in prefabed cannisters (single pack and quadpack) and its fairly plug and play from what i got from MBDA sales director interview. That said...

I was under the impression this proved to be false and that is was bought as a VIP

We all know who makes the decisions. It wasnt the majors and colonels that overthrew NS in 98. The CAS always surrounds himself with supporters. Resentment or not, soldiers would have followed the CAS orders. This is the exact reason Army needs to be removed from power. BTW Bajwa has been in...

Exactly, so why do they need to get swordfish. They already have the similar capabilities in Sea Eagle

Would love to get a look at what the VLS will actually look like

You misunderstood what im saying. There are many Pakistani who were against IK. Right or wrong. To not get that is utterly blind. The point was that all the powerbrokers had aligned against him. This is being portrayed by PTI guys as foreign regime change. It wasnt yes US wanted him out but the...

Can you link it?

How many times did Americans threaten Pakistans leaders over the last 20+ years including after Abbotabad raid? IK going to Russia was the straw that broke the back and made US become so aggressive that the military cowered to pressure? Get real. US has threated and punished successive gotvs and...

Question: has the PL-15 officially also been inducted with the J-10 and do we hace verified pics of. The J-10 carrying it in PAF? IF so will it also equip JF-17 block 2 or only blk 3 when it comes?

Even though the Yarmooks. Are brand new, they should reconfigure it. The space behind the stacks that currently holds the Phalanx should be raised up so the it sits flush with the top of the stacks similar to how the batch 2 have. This will allow the Phalanx to to provide nearly 360 degrees...

If we look at the Naresaun Frigates which are 053H derivatives were upgraded to include an 8 cell VLS. The F-22P is roughly the same dimensions meaning the only options are an 8 cell A50/mk41 or individual cells like the Babur class will have (probably would be able to hold 12-16 cells)...

I think this was less about punishing Pakistan and more about punishing Turkey. With respect to Yarmook and Phalanx, that is a defensive system and they already owned that weapons system and was transferred from Tariq class. I haven't heard about harpoon getting equipped on Yarmook but to be...

Again refitting Anzac frigates cost NZ nearly $350M/ship with nearly the exact layout we are suggesting. Though CMS for Pakistan would be GENESIS rather than Lockheed and upgrade would be done in Pakistan not Canada. With that said Anzacs already had VLS where as in F-22p case the VLS will need...
