Doesn't matter much, in both case the target will never know what hit them :D

Ok, let me put this in a different way. Pakistan helped Srilanka a lot in counter-insurgency ops against Tamil tigers. The details of that 'help' was never made public, but I can tell you from small arms to tank shells, training for ground troops and air force pilots and lots of other...

Air Chief Marshal (Retd) Muhammad Anwar Shamim NI(M),SJ By Najam Khan | January 5, 2013 Air Chief Marshal (Retd) Muhammad Anwar Shamim NI(M),SJ passed away yesterday on January 4, 2013 (aged 81). He was 10th Chief of the PAF (23 July 1978 – 5 March 1985) and a war veteran from 1965 and 71...

..and where was all that good looking 'justice talk' when these Mullahs were taking state matters in their own hands and where were they in all those 5 years after the operation? The truth is that both Mullahs from Lal Masjid and Govt (JUI/coalition partners etc), Choudhrys (PML-Q) and...

In your dreams only... PAF will make sure that Indians will never get access to FC-1. FC-1 anatomy exposed to IAF would be the worst nightmare PAF can hope for. Selling just 6 aircraft to make money (without covering chances of FC-1 exposure to IAF) is definitely not the plan of PAF.

Because its not the top priority item needed at this stage( although its planned in second batch). JF-17 already has enough on-station time and good range, but we need them in numbers now.

Military bases should now have proper sniper squads (oh yes with proper equipment), round the clock patrols by ground combatiers/provosts, strict policy on ORI and security inspections and above all proper mental training for base personnel. Any incident, whether small or big should be reported...

Thats great look, at least some change in a decade. The hyperlinks to PAF/PN websites means transfer of their respective workload to them.:D

Yes , refurbished E/B's, hardly any plans/funds to procure -H versions. I think PAF in next 5-7 years should procured 4-6 IL-78s or at least 8 C-130s. The current number is not enough, because now c-130s are used in low-level tactical attack role as well. Where would PAF's mobilization...

PAF bought Mirages first time in 1967, and later in 70/71. SAAB-105P might be good alternative aircraft in advace jet trainer aircraft role (i.e replacement for T-33), but Mirages were way better in tactical attack/ground attack role. Mirages night reconnaissance capability also helped PAF in...

lindberg_emil, Welcome to the forum! This Saab-105P deal you are asking about was initiated when PAF was evaluating basic and advanced jet trainer aircraft for replacement of US origin Harvad T-6 or as an alternative to T-33 aircraft (as pointed out by Sir Fatman). The post-1965 war time period...

PAF fighter fleet during Exercise High Mark 2010 fire power demo. Aircraft: JF-17 (26 Sqn) , F-16 (11 Sqn),F-7P (19 Sqn), F-7PG (23 Sqn), Mirage-VPA (15 Sqn) and A-5 (26 Sqn). Exercise Falcon Talon 2009. Aircraft: F-16 Block15, Mirage-IIIEA, Mirage-VEF, F-7PG and F-16 Block30 (USAF)...

Some random pictures. some more here.

Exercise Al-Saqoor-II (11 Sqn and 25 Sqn)

Most probably the aircraft is covered inside the cargo plane, and that extra covering is removed before taking the aircraft out. Following photos from March 2007(Pakistan) and August 2009 (China). 2 March 2007. 27 August 2009

At least 5 years. To get the 'best deal' in terms of capability and price tag Pakistan has to wait for now. Chinese UCAVs are a good available solution, but their maturity and operational service (in numbers) in Chinese military is needed.

Regarding C-802 seeker options, I believe there is too much mis-information on internet, the basic anti ship version may not have such multiple seekers. People have mixed basic -802A with KD-88/C-802AK etc. The IR/TV guided missile (also used by Iran under the name of Nasr) is C-704KD; an...

If you are talking about using TV footage of Maverick as nearly FLIR, then its not the real solution. Anything not in Line of Sight of the aircraft will not visible on screen; plus by the time pilot is getting target(s) identification using that method some other ground air defence system will...

Lets say its enough information for now. BTW Sapada-2000 MR-SAM, is already operational with PAF.
