This is where I get confused about the supposed nobility of US foreign policy as proposed by Americans...they are willing to sell Apaches to Taiwan which is hardly of importance to them or their interests, it is separated by water from its main adversary...but when it comes to Pakistan, directly...

I wonder if it is the history and the aura that came with them, but the pilots from the days of the sabres seem to have a different style to them...not exactly a tangible observation but I always feel that way whenever I see pics from the 60s and 70s.

If you dont me asking me asking, how come he was denied access to Shahbaz airbase? Does it have anything to do with the Americans? Many countries now have block 52s and there isnt much remaining secretive about them.

I am not going to argue with your opinion, you are entitled to it...but its his work and he has every right to earn money off its sales...posting it on here means a bunch of people will never buy the magazine and since he is literally one of the few to present our armed forces in a positive...

I dont think the inspiration of a design has any affect on the comparability to that aircraft to another. These threads pop up quite often dont they? Both aircraft have a different role, so I dont know how they can be compared...you have a heavy air superiority fighter in the mki, meant to punch...

All the power to those who work hard and try to make a greater future for themselves. I hope India succeeds, the third world has been exploited for too long, it may be a painstaking process and may take a while, but every country that pulls itself out of poverty and instability is a slap in the...

Is it likely the P8s would come near the Pakistani coast since they would be easy targets for PAF? A large plane with little maneuverability...they will be a problem, but these type of aircraft are extremely vulnerable...even if they are escorted by mig-29s, medium range missiles could take them...

You have a point, I just dont feel comfortable with the potential of a meltdown, the Japanese couldnt prevent it and the Pakistanis usually do far worse with far less damaging scenarios...nor has Pakistan shown a serious interest in the environment over the years and I dont trust the government...

Oh god, why does it matter who this lady married. A religion is secondary, we are all human beings first...how is this even relevant. If you love someone or even if there is compatibility there, why would you not marry them...do you think they sit around discussing religion all day and if she...

The problem the Pakistani armed forces face is of funding. With limited funding, we have to be very wise with our spending...in my opinion,we need attack helicopters more than anything, we have a capable tank force, but one that has little aerial protection. I hope we can address this need...

This is what a few generations of religiously motivated, almost anti liberal education will do to a country. When people are taught to believe in one kind of thought, without being exposed to the diversity around the world, they have little ability to differentiate between what is right and...

I have tried to avoid the first page of this thread at all cost, I cannot fathom the idea of someone killing another in cold blood. It is wrong on every level, nothing justifies murder in my opinion. When one starts making exceptions, it is a very blurry and thin line between morality and...

Im not a fan of nuclear power, another sign of the short term thinking of our leadership. It may seem at the moment that nuclear power is great, but where are we going to dispose of all this waste...it is a terrible idea to invest in a type of power generation for which no technology exists to...

Well if your radar isnt in the nose than you have no frontal coverage, and as the pilot flying the plane, you are essentially blind. A fuel tank would not be large enough for a radar providing significant range. Its easy to just compare the size of the nose of the aircraft with the average fuel...

In the case of the c-130, the engines can be changed, the avionics can be revamped and the only thing which is a problem is the airframe, but these planes can keep flying for many decades. Buying new is not necessary at all, ofcourse they look great when they first arrive, but in the grand...

I think there is obvious truth to the idea of Pakistanis identifying with Islam first. I always found it interesting how when Iraq was invaded, when Afghanistan was invaded, the Pakistanis were up in arms...simply because these were muslim nations. The reality though was, neither nation ever had...

discrimination of any kind is a product of a lack of understanding, directly related to a lack of education. All third world countries, many of which are in transition still deal with issues of discrimination, in India it has to do with caste, but Pakistan has its own. With time, as greater...

The Iranians have been surprisingly lax in building up a formidable airforce...the Isrealis would have little trouble getting by Iranian air defences if they know the ins and outs of the s-300...anyways, are the batteries Iran possesses are enough to safe guard the whole border? Its a lose...

ah thats terrible news...hopefully some good will come out of this and itll allow the rest to further hone their skills to make sure such a freak incident doesnt happen again...but accidents are part of the sort of high intensity training military units are put through. RIP to the soldiers.

The best part about this is, if this were even true in some alternate universe...where other countries would have to waste valuable resources to undermine Pakistan even though our leadership is pathetic enough to do the job for them, the ISI is so incompetent that it still wouldnt be able to...
