There is no such place as P O K. The people of Azad Kashmir got what they wanted in 1948, didn't you ever "hear" that? The question you should be asking is, did the people of the Valley ever get what they wanted? The answer will be inconvenient. In fact, if every Indian devoted even 1% of...

What the Pakistani Naval Chief has said is true, India is trying to become the dominant Navy in the Indian Ocean. However, this is what is expected, we should want the same thing as well. Whoever controls the waters controls trade. Instead of pointing out the obvious, we should focus on...

Gawadar? The port is officially open, but technically still under construction. It will be a few years until it becomes fully operational. InshAllah, in about a decade or so the entire region of Gawadar will be for Balochistan's economy what Karachi has proven to be for Sindh's economy, and all...

I heard it differently. The Indian claims that the ISI planted the insect into his mug, and begins to scream loudly like a little girl to get attention. Once attained, he then claims that the Pakistani's mug is in fact his mug, and tries to prove to the world that Pakistan should not be allowed...

"You heard", that says it all. If I were you, I'd go read-up on the elections in 1987 in IOK, and every election since then. Don't throw stones when you live in a glass house, buddy. Then I doub't that you know any Kashmiris at all. What you think is very different from reality, maybe you...

Do I smell something burning?

Congratulations to Mr. Tendulkar. Nobody in International Cricket today deserved this record more than him. Well done. I am too young to have seen Viv Richards, Gary Sobers, Don Bradman, Sunil Gavaskar etc. play, but I have a hard time thinking that they could be better than this man. He is...

True, the F-16 was never really considered a serious contender by Indians, I don't know why. It does, like you said, offer considerable bang-for-buck so to speak. However, if this deal between the UAEAF and PAF went through, it would hurt the F-16s chances even more. If I remember correctly...

Great find, man. So now we have confirmation that the UAEAF did want the PAF to help it absorb F-16s. The Indians would definitely be concerned about this, it certainly damages the F-16IN's bid for the MMRCA. That leaves the MiG-35 as the only platform in the MMRCA contest the PAF hasn't had...

Inna lillah wa inna 'ilayhi raji'un To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return. Please share any details as they become available. No piece of engineering is 100% fail-proof, which includes all the choppers you mentioned. Mi-17s are the work-horse of PAA, and they love them. Mi-17s are...

I admitted that India is of greater economic significance to the World, at the moment. But you used the term "strategic", which is wrong. Regardless of your rant on how the World bows down to India, the fact remains that India's defensive capabilities are important only to India, whereas...

Also, once the JF-17s are inducted in good numbers, our Mirages will likely adopt dedicated Close Air Support/Battlefield Interdiction roles for Ground and Naval forces. Increased loiter time would be greatly beneficial in these roles, especially when coupled with inputs from the AWACs. Hence, I...

He was a great politician, but not a great Commander in Chief. He was, however, gifted with some very talented individuals as subordinate Generals. Without his crack team of Generals, the early Nazi victories would not have been possible. Unfortunately for Hitler, his counterpart in England was...

You called the center? wow, I'm honored. Thank you very much for your efforts. However, since I've nearly completed my University, I don't intend to repeat the 4-years of academic training. I, too, will wait for the SSC to open for males, and by then, InshAllah, I'll have completed my undergrad...

Brother, InshAllah you'll be well in no time. Best wishes man, really. Your parents, relatives and friends must be having a tough time with this, so keep up the positive attitude. You've gotta be a rock for those close to you, and for yourself. Keep us up-to-date about your therapy.

Here's what I understand. Part of the Turkish military is strongly secular minded, and they are uneasy with the present pro-Islamic government. Some ex-military men may believe that the current government will isolate Turkey even more in Europe. Anyway, it is their internal matter. Most of us...

Local Saudis seem uninterested in pursuing the highest levels of education, in my personal experience. My university has one of the most diverse student bodies in the World, and I've never come across a Saudi or an Emirati or an Omani in the Engineering or Science faculties (I think the...

Both are unlikely in the next Block. I haven't heard any hints that the PAF is considering CFTs for the JF-17, and seeing it's primary roles, I don't see why CFTs would be needed immediately (IFR capability will be added in the next Block). Secondly, I can't see how one could incorporate a...

Alright. Thanks for the information. It's already Feb. 22, I think I missed the deadline. In any case, I wouldn't have been able to apply before March, that is when I'll be in Pakistan. Thanks for the info. I hope they open up SSC for males and females soon enough.

Hello Eagle, I was just wondering. The PAF application, is that just for women or everyone? Also, what is the deadline? did you apply yet? Sorry for all the questions. I'll be visiting Pakistan soon, so I thought maybe I'll get a chance to apply as well. -Ace.
