^ aircrafts travel faster then the speed of sound not then Radio Active Raze, Digital electronic raze or RADIATION.... Common Sense

But,how the pilot HEAR something if he traveling faste
r than sound

read modulation and de-modulation.
In simple words,the signal{audio waves in this case} is superimposed on the carrier wave(radio/micro waves) and is transmitted,as the radio waves travel at the speed of light i.e 2.99793 lakh kilometers per second.This is received by using a receiver circuit and is demodulated and is fed into a speaker.

but that sound wave has to travel frm speaker to the ear drum of the pilot.at that point hw wil it work?

Simple, Newton's 1st law of motion...


"....First law: Every body remains in a state of constant velocity unless acted upon by an external unbalanced force. [3][4][5] This means that in the absence of a non-zero net force, the center of mass of a body either remains at rest, or moves at a constant velocity....."

-source Wikipedia




The sound that pilot hears is emitted from a source traveling at the same speed as the aircraft/pilot. So to the pilot, the speed of the sound wave, within his aircraft is just like you listening top music while on the ground.


The speed of sound wave that the pilot hears relative to the sound outside of the plane, there will be the difference of about the speed that the plane is traveling at.


Kinda relative speeds......when you sit in a plane, everything seems at rest, unless you see out of the window.......

Pakistan Air Force inducts F-16 Block 52 squadron

James Hardy Asia-Pacific Editor - London


Pakistan announced it had completed the induction of new Lockheed Martin F-16C/D Block 52 fighter aircraft into one of its squadrons on 10 March.

The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) held a ceremony at Shehbaz Air Base near Jacobabad in Sindh Province to mark the replacement of 5 Squadron's ageing Mirage fleet with the F-16s, which are part of a USD1.4 billion deal with the United States which includes delivery of 500 AIM-120C-5/7 BVR missiles.

The F-16s are part of a major recapitalisation of PAF assets. The air force will induct a second squadron of JF-17 'Thunder' fighters - co-manufactured with China - in late March, according to reports, and is in the process of receiving four Chinese ZDK-03 and four Saab 2000 airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) aircraft.

"With the induction of Block 52 F-16s, AEW&C, aerial refuellers and a multilayered air defence system, PAF now has the capability to respond to various threats being faced by a nation with efficiency and safety," PAF Air Chief Marshal Rao Qamar Suleman said at the ceremony.

The sketch shows one of the new F-16 Block 52s delivered to PAF, with Conformal Fuel Tanks (CFTs) , cleared taxi to runway for take off. In the background another F-16 can be seen taking off.

Imran and may we know why are these jets so damn useless??

Imran and may we know why are these jets so damn useless??

when they shot down first drone then i will agree they are not useless in 2010 we got 120 air raids and our f-16 was parked in showcase. today 80 pakistains lost there life and f-16 was enjoying there time at shahbaz.these jets are totally useless as they cant protect our air space.one day they will out of service with no use of defend nation. for us they are already out of service and joy rides by some rich guys they work well.

Why these planes are not worth the cash we paid? What do you think.

That cash could have been used a lot better in other programs. A lot more efficient and a lot less strings. You have seen how RD case was solved. It means the USA has got a huge leverage. Same happens to Indonesia. They bought the good old F16's and parked them on the tarmac cause USA refused to deliver spare parts. Indonesia did not obey orders. Now the same Indonesia is getting (or should I say like Pakistan begging) for second hand F16's. Are these planes worth anything? Surely a potent fighter but it is not a clean deal and I think that we should had learned from the past. We did not. We never will. It is like our beloved Kiyani telling that US predators killing people in Pakistan is terrorism but we all know what the real deal is. Our leaders never became men.

 

[Myth_buster_1]

This is one for sure!

Whats the point of the cage on air intake? Why not just cover it completely?

 

[F-16_Falcon]

How many F-16 are yet to come? The delivery is too slow.

 

[razgriz19]

^^^^ @imran
so if we follow ur theory then that means our whole inventory is useless......thunders are useless....our pilots are useless, correct?
its not the aircraft, its our gov..

How many F-16 are yet to come? The delivery is too slow.

the contract for 18 a/c has been completed in 4 years - normal delivery pace!

14 EDA F-16A/B are still pending!

Would they be delivered at all?
