I talked to a guy who was on the team that developed the Blue Vixen radar. He told me that one of the programming geniuses wrote his own word processing program in 3 days.

Chinese state media runs documentaries calling the FC-1 a 2.5 generation fighter and J-10 a 3rd generation fighter. They basically admit China is at least a generation behind the USA in combat aircraft design. Recently they also reported that a J-10 crashed due to engine problems and China's...

None of those show KJ-2000, who put those slides together? The later slides show the A-50E which is completely different to the KJ-2000. Even the IL-76 airframe is different for each one. The A-50E has no large ventral fins and an extra air intake at the base of the tail fin. KJ-2000 has...

According to one well-known poster, the Pakistani DU round is ok but not great. It has a "short rod penetrator" because only shorter rounds can fit in the autoloader mechanisms of the PA's tanks. What it needs is a long rod penetrator, which might become possible because according to a Pakistani...

You sure that's the new one with the big intakes? Do you know if it has turbofans fitted rather than turbojets?

Don't be like that, these trains are very impressive. 2008nnd, can you please put pictures of China's high speed trains in the Economy & Development - Pakistan Defence Forum section.

LOL, tell the Indians that PAF is using the USA as strategic depth and they won't be buying any American aeroplanes again!

2008nnd can you please show us any pictures you have of J-11 fitted with the WS-10 Taihang turbofan engine? When you find pictures of J-10 with Taihang please post it also. Do you have the picture of the new H-6 with much bigger air intakes? Does anybody know if it is fitted with turbofan...

Thanks for pics and info Wangrong. Can you give us more info on the differences between 04 and 06?

Keep dreaming.

Chill, I never said you did, I was just making a point. :)

I still don't see what the Sino-Pak relationship is all about. 50 billion trade with India compared to 7 billion with Pakistan is shocking. What is India trading with China that Pakistan cannot? Electronic goods? You need to grow up. Somebody please delete this kid's post and at least warn...

The same journalist posts at PakDef.info, a quote from one of his posts (replying to a fellow who was asking for clarification on the flight control system): "Fawad the control systems in the initial prototypes were FBW (pitch only) plus conventional. I was told that due to some problems...

But you ARE trying to put words into my mouth. I never denied what I wrote at all. In that first quote I make a statement about 250 JF + AEWC and 230 MKI, in the other I make a statement about what PAF should have inducted by 2015. They have nothing to do with each other. You're proving just...

I think you guys misunderstood me. I believe Rafale would have offered better ROI had it not been so expensive and the PAF not already so familiar with F-16. I just wanted to know what Gambit thought of Rafale's capabilities compared to the latest F-16; a technical comparison. Should have...

JF-17 definitely has a full all-axis FBW system. It had one from PT-04 onwards according to the insiders. The only solid evidence I have found is this article: From http://usmanansari.com/id12.html, the website of a respected Pakistani journalist. He writes articles for many defence magazines...

I doubt it. Take a look at China's WZ-10, that would make much more sense.

So in your opinion, after considering Rafale's reduced RCS, canard-delta layout, Spectra EW suite, phased array radar and the MBDA Meteor, PAF is better off with buying more F-16? Any proof of that?

Doesn't matter to me, it will never fight 1v1 against MKI. This know-it-all must be the PAF Chief Of Air Staff or something. Telling a combat veteran who was chosen by PAF to evaluate the F-16 and Mirage 2000, what types of missiles his country can develop. That's just funny.
