What's new

China has delivered HJ-12E Red Arrow 12 anti-tank missile weapon to foreign customer

. . . . .
Kornet have way farther range but are very heavy, and would probably be useless against T-90s which would be unlikely to penetrate a platform made by the same country. How about Pak gets licensed production of Ukrainian, or Belarusian Kornet equivalents with full TOT?

PA was final stages of testing Mizrek-O FnF ATGM from Turkey what happened to that??
 
. . .
If it pass PA parameters then should be inducted with ToT as it will give new capability to PA ATGM force, also Mizrek-U should be tested for air and ground launched platforms.
Not sure of Turkey's production capacity able to match China's in all honesty. I also don't know how much TOT Turkey will actually give compared to China. Pakistan needs HJ-12 for infantry, but this or other systems could work for vehicle, and air launched.

Very, very heavy compared to HJ-12.

Missile weight 24 kg
Missile weight (with launch tube) 35 kg


HJ-12

CLU weight 6.5 kg
Missile weight 13 kg

M8, I'm talking a man portable weapon, which soldier can carry a 35kg missile around?

This is multipurpose missile capable of dealing ground and air threats, does any other similar system exist??

Its not truly infantry system while HJ-12 is mainly for foot soldiers and both have different capability too.

I honestly think that Ukraine would give Pakistan huge TOT for their Kornet equivalent missile that can be mounted on all vehicles, and get TOT from China for the HJ-12 for infantry use. Mizrak will be more expensive to mass produce, and infrared guidance may malfunction in very hot temperatures.

No need, MANPADS work just fine for those needs.

MI-35s and Viper prototype fielded russian atgms.
Basically mechanised & mobile infantry.

For such modern systems, no one easily gives TOT. Don't think the HJ 12 or the Omtas - Karaok is the same as other laser guided atgms
