Yes that is something majority is not aware of. Biggest user of Pakistani drones is United States Customs and Border Patrol who uses them along the Mexican border.
No Bhai! I do not consider myself a Think Tank. I am just a student striving to learn more.
In answer to your question, bird strikes are not limited to jets. many aircrafts with open propeller have been victims of bird strikes.Some Examples include Spanish Air Force DO-27, British Chip M, and...
many members from India and Pakistan come to these forums to learn and gain knowledge. Unfortunately, I find some totally devoid of any knowledge or desire to learn something new. Looks like they are members of some "pissing Brigates" whose sole purpose is to start a pissing contest.
I will...
This is so true. I saw one of the Indian wives probably Mrs. Ayer or Mrs. Sharma, saying on Indian media that her grandfather asked her not to worry any more after Pakistanis got involved. Grand Father told her and the family " the biggest gift you can have is the frienship of a sachha(True)...
Adnan! My advice to you is Learn to respect others and you will learn and gain a lot. One of my sons is a year older than you are based on your profile some where. I once told him that "Stupids know every thing and Smart never know enough" You are a good contributer on various forum and I...
Mind yoy missiles will be guided by the mother aircraft to a certain distance before the guidance is taken over by your AWACS. Missile's guidance system will then guide it to the target in the last stage.
At General Dynamics we did a study of Flankers and its impact on our Business Development efforts internationally and the results surprised us.
We need to be very careful when comparing Flankers with other aircrafts. Realistically, it is one of the best if not the best among the 4th gen...
Amazing how soon the Russian change their tune and then come up with an excuse. Evidently a bad news for those who were very happy with the earlier news that Russians had blocked the sale. Pakistan keeps all its options open. ACM's comments regarding engines were true. This news should stop any...
I do not believe in trolling. In fact I am too old to even know what the word meant until I googled to find out.
I am sorry if my post enraged you. But you cannot blame me to react to certain posts with baseless arguments.
One of them is that since Chinese Air Force has not inducted or...
Let us not blame them. Most in India have been let down by DRDO, Hal, and ADA, and now riled up after being blindsided by Pakistan and China. It is a defeat difficult to accept.
First they thought that JF-17 would never become a reality before LCA did.
Once it did, line of attack became that...
Wow,
Apearance of Thunder at FIA has forced many things to come out in the open which Indian would never say before. Now the crux of discussion is JF-17 VS Su-30MK1.
Jf-17 will be eaten alive by SU-30MK1 but they do not mention Thunder eaten alive by Tejas, Mirage-2000 or Mig-29. Now we...
Nahin Bhai,
That is how it looks like. I had news that they will but something happened and my sourse is not aware of. why.It surely was an administrative issue and nothing related to Thunder.
I am sure RD-93 will be ultimately replaced. If you compare the new pictures of incoming JF-17s 113 % 114 with the older ones, you may notice a bulge in the belly just under the exchausr cone. Changes have definitely been made. Notice the intake looks smaller than before.
Hopefully some...
Looks like none of the Falcons going to Nellis are from the original batch of F-16 Pakistan had. Going are the F-16AR Block-15(OCU) received recently from USAF. Their Sub-Block designation AR means that they are already upgraded to Block-40 version.
Thanks for excerpt from Air Force Technology magazine article. After AFM, an article in Air Force Technology Magazine is highly welcome and helps JF-17 immensely. A good read.

Chill out every one crying about CFTs and not finding them on the new arrivals. Lets get away with this mind set that if we do not see something we want to see, then it is piece of junk.
For your information, external fuel tanks are mostly used for ferrying flights and that is a normal...
They make hardly any difference in agility or operation of F-16 when flying subsonic. But they are a big drag when going supersonic. Faster the dpeed-bigger the drag.
CFTs cannot be jettisoned during a flight. It takes ground crew at least 2 to 3 hours to remove them.
Yes they are highly trained and motivated but most of their training is not combat related as you may think. My opinions are based more on observations, conversations, and popular beliefs about RSAF.
I hate to divulge information that may be misconstrued. I may not be as knowledgeable as...
