PhD in Aerodynamics and my son is doing his PhD in Astrophysics.

So you can ask me anything regardless of what you think is a stupid question, is actually not stupid. knowledge is knowledge no matter what others say. There are a very few people who have really seen a Fighter let alone fly one, You might be very educated but sitting a flying is a totally separate thing and having a couple of boogies under your belt makes hell of a difference.
So ask anything except weapons I will not go into details unless PAF has openly told everyone. .....
Hello Mr. Murad, just wanted to thank you. Have read many posts and your views / replies and have to tell you, it is a pleasure to read your insights. We may have a history of two wars behind us as citizens of two different countries but my objectivity allows me to respect men in uniform irrespective of the country and so taking this opportunity to share my thoughts with you. This particular thread has given good insights and hoping to read more on aerodynamics etc. I do have a question though, and if I may narrate an incident before that.
My brother-in-law a retired commodore from the IN, did his Engineering from IIT (a highly reputed institute in India for the benefit of those who may not know) and then his masters from UK sponsored by the IN. You may have heard of the ATV project (the nuclear submarine project in India) which really is not going anywhere frankly and he was part of the team that was posted in Russia to understand and absorb the technology. He narrated this incident to me. After a few classes of training, the Indian Engineers demanded that they be handed over the notes which they can read in leisure time thereby expediting the entire learning process instead of being taught like in a class room. Initially Russian instructor hesitated but upon persistence he gave the notes away. And my brother-in-law tells me that the science in those notes was really so advanced that the team could not make much of it.
So my question is, what is the technology gap between US/ Russia and Pakistan/India, of course only about things that you can disclose. I realise it is a very open ended question in terms of "technological gap in which field" but I leave it to you to address it. I hope you do not mind.
Thanks and kind regards,
Anoop.
