    Pakistan AESA Radar Hope

    It must be mentioned, that the AESA technology is present with the US only, and no other country. The article mentions electronically scanned array technology. It must be mentioned that this is NOT the same as AESA. These are ESA radars, which scan electronically using phased waves. They still...

    Another option for PAF is F -111

    India is purchasing Tupolev bombers from Russia. Thus, it can be possible that Pakistan may purchase the F-111 from Australia to counter India's purchase of Tu bombers from Russia.

    SU-30 Deterrence

    It is true that the usage of AWACs shall nullify the advantages of the Su-30 MKI's radar over the radar of the F-16. The acquisition of Phalcon AWACs with the IAF shall also nullify the advantage of the Erieye AWACs that PAF shall acquire. There shall also be an an encrypted data link for...

    SU-30 Deterrence

    I think I commited a mistake by taking the discussion to the LCA whereas this thread is about the Su-30 vs F-16. We may discuss the LCA in another thread started by melb4aust. The Su-30 MKI shall have an advantage with respect to F-16 in WVR combat, since it has smaller turn-radius, has...

    SU-30 Deterrence

    I have mentioned earlier that the "lecture" link of Jai's post is not working, otherwise that source would have been provided instead of a forum discussion. It has been acknowledged that the radar range of the LCA is over 100 kms. It has been teted on the Avro trainer aircraft, and is...

    JF-17

    It is unlikely that Russia will allow the sale of RD-93 engines to Pakistan. The likelihood of China reverse-engineering the RD-93 into the WS-? engine and exporting that to Pakistan is probable. Members may kindly answer one question of mine, which is that why is Pakistan purchasing...

    SU-30 Deterrence

    The radar detection range of a Su-30 MKI is far greater than a Block-52 F-16 (140-160 kms). Even an LCA can match a Block-52 F-16 in terms of avionics. The MMR of LCA is said to have a range of 100+ kms. It would be better to compare an F-15 to the Su-30 MKI.
