2 trips and you can have 22. A Look at the pictures. If this was a retractable fueling probe would you have seen it sticking out like it does? A

Maybealso more faith in the AESA radar that the JFT is carrying. A

I wish things were as simple as that!!. Remember the 2002 impasse between India and Pak. We did not have any BVR, mostly 3rd generation missiles, and F16 hampered by lack of spares and armaments. it still did not deter us from getting ready for our defence. IAF is a professional force and not...

@PanzerKiel,s post is ambiguous and therefore confusing (I remain grateful for the titbits none the less). Additional stores might mean additional hardpoints, DERs or Some other crown jewels being hung on to the beauty. It could be taxi tests for the 8th HP carrying the POD. So a lot more...

But this is all they need to do. The naivety of the US populace with international events is amazing. The UK population is a bit more aware but hugely reliant on the Western media for their information. To our misfortune, to date there is not a single media outlet which portrays our narrative to...

NO and rest assured for the foreseeable future PAF will not have a TVC bearing aircraft. It adds weight and has very little utility i n the presence of HOBS missiles Regards A

The squadron is already functioning. Official ceremonies can wait. Perhaps PAF did not want to take the limelight away from the J10 or reduce the significance of JFT which is why it did not induct Block 3.

I think the order for dual seaters is more or less complete. there were only 26 units ordered. But you could be right about the Export orders. A

As requested Sir!!!

I am not sure. So you may have to ask a professional. But the point regarding potential problems with integration remains. We do not know how much autonomy PAF has in this regards. A

Thank you. Too much kaddoo for lunch$%@×+. Made appropriate changes A

Production schedule is 12 AC per year for block 3s. So we will have 48 examples by 2024. A

How do you know this? Please explain. A

PAF will never allow the 16s to wither away and die prematurely. It has enough spares to keep them in very good shape . It will also continue to get spares for the current fleet for the forseeable future. Relations with the US might not be as good as they were but we are still no where near the...

PLAAF will have its own jammers which would be equally capable. If needed we will have the capability to do so in house. However with hardware from multiple vendors it sometimes becomes problematic to use the hardware to their best capability. So there may have been a prudent decision to not do so.

Unlike the 90s China now has many products which have matured and are of international standard. The US remained an untrustworthy ally whereas common strategic goals means that the Chinese are much more in tune with our needs and wipling to help us achieve them. Turkey is also coming on line so...

Lets not concentrate on their woes. We have got plenty of our own and we need some serious focused attention on them. Lets sort our own problems out and leave them to sort their own out Regards

That is their inferiority complex speaking. I was going to write something else but thought it better that we ignore them and instead concentrate on getting ourselves more stronger. Our weakest link remains our fragile economy and low reserves which will not allow us any lee way unless we...

These 2 statements need to be our mantra for the next 5 years. It is important to give a logical path to all inductions. Ie. Akinci and TB2 counter insurgency and western border serveillance J10C. Medium weight fighter to supplement F16s which we cannot get HQ9 self defence system in the light...

How will this plane fly and run when the tyres are not the same size. Latest international conspiracy from Bharat ratshit forum" China delivers planes to PAF with unequal tyres. They cannot run on the tarmac" 😄😆😅🤣😇
