Hi Xishan,
Sir, there is misinformation and lack of knowledge about missiles in your post. Stinger was a heat seeker---once it locked on, regardless whose ar-se it painted, it was on its way. It doesnot mean that it works 100% of the time. Heat seekers are fire and forget missiles.
Now if it was a radar guided missile, it is a different story. The stinger can have an intial problem of locking onto the target and that is not because of the chip but rather of not getting a proper heat signature. Even though the missile may be launched, if there is no lock or a loss of heat lock, or flares or some other anomaly, it will go astray. For that very reason, president Clinton's regime tried very hard to buy back all the remaining stingers, because they have a very high kill ratio.
Well Khan Sahib try to use your brain a bit, Obviously not like yahaya khan but like AQ khan, Ever heared about RFIDs and its uses?? agreed stringers are heat seakers but Mr khan have you ever opned a stringer and see what is inside it ? how can can you be so sure that when u fire a stringer on an american plane its RFID tage gets activated as it approaches plane and it goes out of spin? Its so stange why dont people use their brains. Atleast I would never like a missile provided by me to some one hits my own plane. What do u say people?? Its just a simple example other weapon system are much more complex and have much more space for incorporation of neferious objects.
The rest of your article about equipment is completely bad bad information. Seems to me that you are clueless how the defence industry operates in the world.
mr actually its that you simply dont know that you dont know
Let me get you off your mis-information wagon---the defence industry in based upon trust---yessir trust---do you think that they have a department where they have people installing defective parts in equipment going to pakistan and another department where they installing quality parts---which would at the time of failure bring about shame to their manufacturers. Do you really have any beliefe that once these machines fail in actual combat, that there would be any other nations left to buy the equipment from that company.
Do u know how much budget CIA have and what is their mendate??. do u really think their only work is to Tape monika lewensky?? comeon man grow up I just wish that your mindset is not shared by our top brass Dont you know that every item pakistan gets is checked several times, People correct me if I am wrong when we got F-16s they were feather balnced and their electrical wiring related to delivery of nukes had been removed, Maybe something to do with craftmanship huh?? and navy people would attest to my verdict as they had quite a lot which had been tonned down.
Khan Saab in this world nobody would u give a weapon to destroy themselve its a basics of military startegy to plan the future and always have a exit strategy. GROw up do u really think that all their firms are workinga nd just supplying equipment all over world and pentagon is sitting and just getting fat on their asses??
Kid, you have no clue about pride of performance and pride in your workmanship kind of mentality---you need to learn and understand that when you manufacture and design a machine, it has your name, sweat, blood, your integrity, your honesty, your quality of workmanship, the future of the epmloyees working at that plant and the future of their families being attached to it---to top it all off---it has the name of the company or the name of the owner of the company stamped on it.
What do u think about Iraq?? why was there so somooth roll over? Mr khan modern weapons of today are not are not sabers or spears (your craftmanship), you are living in primitive times plz come out of it, these weapons of toady are very complex mechanism and most have ability to perform on their masters or for you in simpler wordsfor you they have their brains and they sense its only that you dont know. If in future there is a conflict between us and pak then this would be the first time americans would be facing formidable oppostion and belive me they have plans for it i dont remmebr who said it but there is a saying which Americans belive firmly is that if you find an formidable oppostion then you donthave planned your war .
I donot know of any defence equipment producing company that pakistan deals would fall in the category of short-changing its end user
Fools Paradise
Why don't you print some info and background the information burning issue of PAF and we will see where it leads.
It is said it was an accident(Zia sahib C130 accicdent seems familiar aint it?? ) that caused burning of investigation and records regarding signal jamming and I think it was sargodha where it happened. Let me check if i can get you some proof. An airforce person told me.
At the end of your post you come up with that dreaded word TOT---do you really know what it means---do you really know where pakistan can put all that TOT and make any use of it.
templeates, yes you have to re-invent the wheel atleast in this case otherwise dont complain that things were not working as they were suppose to be, be it fly-by-wire, HUD, BVR, Sidewinder or any programmeable thing.
