Eight super-sonic cruise missiles (YJ-12/C-302) for Type-054B instead of eight sub-sonic cruise missiles (C-802) or four super-sonic cruise missiles for Type-054A/AP.

The MiG-21 Fishbed is a single-engine light-weight fighter aircraft developed by the Soviet Union in the early years of the Cold War. It is the most produced supersonic aircraft in aviation history and has been flown by more than 60 nations around the globe. This fighter...
Honestly, this is the Jinnah class we all want ... it's true potential is yet to be known, for example, the size of both VLS modules etc, but I believe this platform can be tailored to meet PN requirements. If it's VLS can host long range missiles, and shorter ones can be quad packed then it...

In modern warfare, without control over skies, the likelihood of a successful military operation remains far-fetched. In the past, air power was primarily gauged by the numerical strength and ability to employ brute force in combat. But modern air power has become a function of...
We have been pushing to develop Navy with in a given time scale ever since work has actively commenced on CPEC. We failed to timely replace Amazons creating the pressure to undertake necessary modernization for minimizing the gap against Indian Navy.
OHPs were once needed to meet the...
Hit your pocket and re-read your argument again.
With the economic condition and restriction on availability of technology, you won't be getting any other vessel with this cost and in such short interval of time.
Before 054, you were running after US with a bowl for few OHPs. At that point you...
That's complete underestimation of 054A/Ps capabilities. 054 has increased anti-surface, anti-submarine, and anti-air warfare potential of PN by many folds. Many new generational systems have been introduced for first time: AESA radar, super-sonic cruise missile, VLS, and next gen EW suite.
PN...
I must say, its load of non-sense.
Different packages have been proposed regarding MLU of F-22Ps. Economics, availability, and compatibility will decide which package will be adopted. (if not short-listed already)
Whatever Admiral Abbasi said can be split into two sections:
1: Near-term and...
Currently only two Jinnah class are planned as far as available information is concerned.
Considering the economic conditions, I don't see follow-on orders of JCF seeing the light of day.
The names mentioned here were tentative and no longer correct.
Complete standardization of one tank type is not practical, even in longer run.
Currently we operate six different types.
And that's problem is not limited to tanks. In Pakistan Army, Helicopters, trucks, utility vehicles, all suffer from this problem.
Most backward militaries, with no...
Get out of these theoretical calculations based on idealistic assumptions.
Facts are:
A subsonic "moderately capable" Neptune missile can penetrate multi layer defense shield of a flagship cruiser.
And Kinzhal, with in inflight maneuverability and launch flexibility, can be intercepted at...
Beside the incompetence and failures to overcome the militancy and nullify the losses of life, the way they photoshop their faces on uniforms is itself a disgraceful act.
As per a feasibility study, installation of GWS-26 VLS is possible.
Albatross-NG for Zulfiquar class in future with other important upgrades IA.
Yarmook class will not carry any missile based air defense system. Their employment does not necessitate need of dedicated air defense system.
The educational degrees (M.Phil/PhD) acquired by senior Military officers barely meet the educational benchmarks. In most cases, thesis are written by paid scholars (or even students) and research articles are also usually published using power of shoulders. Many military officers, after...
