Specific to Raven, you believe this is a kickback driven procurement?

Advanced technology costs a lot. Even the software alone has a huge price. However using upto date technology can help you in many ways to further your own technology development. I am sure in future we shall be making our own drones. These Ravens (if we get them) shall be of benefit to us in...

There is a difference between cleaning your stable and setting fire to it... I reckon that is what shall happen if we listen to US instead of following an independent long term strategy which has the interests of Pakistan at its heart. USA will do what is right for them and we should...

Criticism is one thing and right of you all, but if we use such simple calculations by using associations then the result is mind boggling Afghan Jihad<-CIA=ISI->Afghan Jihad ->Afghan Mujahideen-> Afghan Taliban \ > Arab Mujahideen->Osama->Al Qaeda->Tehrik e Taliban Pakistan...

F-16 and Mig-29 are both agile and deadly fighters, however there is a reason that most of the pilots who have flown both aircraft are of the view that the F-16 is more potent. The Mach and G number limits on both planes is similar but it does not indicate the parameters under which the max G...

Up for a little muscle flexing are we? You will attack mostly innocents on the coast and play into the hands of the pirates. Such exercises tend to have a lot of military, economic and political repercussions; i think your government will not make such a mistake. Best way is to handle it...

Brother, Let us not make this into one of those threads where reality takes a back seat. F-7 is a very limited platform. It shall still be very useful in an overall strategy which is based on sound logic, creativity and clear threat perception, however in the long run we shall be much more...

The F-16 is still one of the best dog fighters in the world, if both F-16 and MKI enter WVR then it suits PAF. The advantage of MKI is range, payload, radar etc. The article is just a propaganda to get more $$ for IAF. The IAF currently has the advantage in high end fighters, no doubt about it.

Be that as it may, If he comes here he can influence his friends and family to cast a vote for Imran Khan as well. We literally have to be dragged to a polling station, such is the plight of our urban/educated young voters.

AM, That is the dilemma. On one hand we see proponents of increased mobility at the cost of reduced manpower. Both Mobility and Manpower are essential here and to reduce one at the cost of the other may backfire. In recent times we have seen countless generals request additional boots on ground...

Well, there is no tremendous change of culture except the superficial changes due to urbanization and the animosity towards each other due to conflicting national interests. The rural areas still throb with the same beat. Despite all the conflicts, there is still an affiliation towards each...

Seriously, would appreciate if you do not go down that road. Keep it civil. Coming to the perceived monsoon of USD, i would appreciate it if you can at least try to understand that USA is not running a charity. If USA had not been given access to Pakistan, the cost of their Afghanistan...

It all seems like a good idea to increase mobility but i have to say that based on the current situation, i would rather maintain more boots on ground. What i have seen is that despite successful military engagements we need soldiers to hold the area for a long long time due to government's lack...

Stop referring to other threads in order to prolong a needless argument about who is a troll. If anyone trolls here then report it to the mods. Thanks.

Here is his bio data...clearly showing no relevance whatsoever to his role of energy advisor. http://www.pid.gov.pk/bio%20data%20Dr.%20Asim%20Hussain%2017-4-2011.doc BIO-DATA OF DR. ASIM HUSSAIN, NEWLY APPOINTED ADVISOR TO THE PRIME MINISTER ON PETROLEUM & NATURAL RESOURCES Born at Karachi in...

Dear Muse I guess the word you are looking for is dramatic... Till the day technocrats are not appointed as advisers and architects of such grand schemes, there is no chance in hell for it to work. :cheers: BTW, one thing you have to say of Zardari...he is a CARE BEAR...when it comes to his...

Paa Jee, Do remember to come to Pakistan and cast your vote when the election day comes...otherwise Imran Khan will not win. :pakistan:

The so called US Aid of billions which was transferred during Musharraf era was actually mostly compensation for services offered including transit fees, Fuel and logistical support. Services which incurred a major cost for Pakistan and are still ongoing. There was no free lunch and it is...

I know countless retired military personnel who went to Gulf Countries after retirement. This is nothing new and is just being given a twist by certain parties as if Pakistan is sending active duty soldiers to help the Bahraini government, which is certainly not happening. The regime maybe...

Would you stop with this nonsense already...Guns for hire state? Pakistan Army is not being sent to Bahrain Regarding Pakistanis being hired all over the Muslim world as defense experts and contractors...this has been happening since decades and is nothing wrong.
