A NEW AIRCRAFT FOR PAF

[ACE OF THE AIR]

no sirji rafales are a done deal as for super hornet or F16 im not very sure Grippen is immpossible to be part of IAF for sure as under new FDI for defnce plan GOI has agreed to give 100% FDI in defence and aerospace under MII scheme


so what you do have better trained pilots than us dont ya

Sir, if you kindly scroll back to find my earlier post in which I had stated in detail why India is considering the Gripen and F-18's over the Rafales.

100%FDI is more profitable once commonality between systems can be established. The most important factor is that Rafales do not offer RAM which are available through F-18's which is a priority requirement of India for the FGFA especially after the possible delays with PAK-FA.

waise SAAB se yaad aaya since Pakistan have better express way netwrok than india i guess grippen E makes perfect sense from them

No chance...

sir thing is rafale is the best fighter for IAF MRCA/medium multi role as a single rafafle in a single sortie can do job of a growler and a fully laden F-A-18E/F in SEAD/DEAD and limited air interception role plus IAF needs a twin engine medium wieght for SEAD and DEAD & deep strike roles mainly which dosent needs armed escorts so rafale is what both IAF and now IN AF want for its IAC1

as for US fighter sure either F18 or F16 will come but most propabally its gonna be F16s

as for RAM coating and all that well rafale can carry 9.5 tonne on 14 hard points and take care of its own deu to its SPECTRA suite which is more powerfull in engaging and confising enemy radars than any ammout of RAM but even then who told you rafale cant have RAM coatings aswell ... any link

Pakistan doesn't have the political leverage to convince Russia to sell us Su-35. Russia won't do anything which can possibly irk India, like it or not.

Pakistan is listed as one of the Sukhoi's potential customers.

Arabi Shiekh hoshyar hoga haaan.....ab kuch nahi dataa...

but even now window is open if PA agrees to saudi plan who knows former saudi upgraded F15s and maybe even upgraded typhoons in PAF just might be a reality

 

[fatman17]

We are more likely to get used Eagles, in the Strike Eagle configuration from KSA. These can then be upgraded to meet the Pakistani long range strike requirement.

Never happen

Has Saudi Arabia or any Gulf Country financed any fighter aircraft acquisition by PAF till now ??

 

[Basel]

Pakistan is listed as one of the Sukhoi's potential customers.

Please share that list and link.

Although any one of Su-35 & EFT is possible for PAF if they have decided to purchase one of them upto 40 in numbers.

pak is lagging behind they need it urgent

Sir(s): can you tell me what is wrong in his comment that he got Negative Rating...

 

[Ultima Thule]

Su-35 chance is slim for PAF its might be J-10c-d or EF2000

 

[Mysticbuddy]

EF is 140 million a piece ....Pakistan can t pay 470 million for new F16 ...

That too naked....

 

[CHI RULES]

Warning 're russian fighters are very robust and some key aspects better than western fighters mainly agility twr load and range. And half the price.

But very maintenance intensive and half the flying hours life times .

Pakistanis are beginning to see this in their thunders already with a Labour intensive engine's.

The USA fighters now have massive sanctions threat USA is literally a ally of India ..so that's making relying on USA very dangerous in future for Pakistan.

This leaves Europe. Or China

Europe you need to have massive pockets as India is finding out now with rafale..

Back to China I guess more thunders with chinease engine and possibly vanguards

Sir, PAF is quite satisfied with JF17 engine. Further the Su35 is next level jet as compared to previous versions and appears to be less labour intensive. Most of the problems are faced by Indian SU30 flankers as they are mix of different hardware and techs of different countries which are not compatible with each other along with unreliable engines.

 

[volatile]

In any case F15 requires US approval both at congress and presidential level plus Infrastructure requirement means more US dependence also US in not in a mood to supply any weapons against India. Mig 35 is a real dark horse with very low $/hours but capabilities are some thing to be seen ,Sukhoi corporation has defined PAF as potential customers for SU35 that cancels any chance of Indian Leverage or any thing , EF2000 hmmm i am little confused over it as it appears to be very strong candidate but Rafale n EF2000 are almost in the same league so 1 to 1 basis are requires seems not a wise decision

Indians call everything Junk which they cannot or have not bought. To them, and operational aircraft is junk, but all their aircraft are made of Platinum. I wish I could post the SV index on here! Indian public is kept in dark, otherwise the amount of democracy that prevails in India, their service chiefs would be resigning every quarter.
