building on your points ..
What we have learned from Feb27 that Pakistan needs to deliver maximum possible TNT in the shortest possible time. can you deliver maximum TNT per sortie?? ask yourself this question
on Feb 27th one whole sq was tied to bomb 2 targets. that is not scalable in general conflict. Pakistan has to get heavy strike force which can deliver conventional scale weaponary. and to avoid damage to its forces in retaliatory strikes.
In current circumstances Pakistan can deliver min amount of weaponary and hence loses its element of strike where a lot of enemy targets will survive.
please beware of using land based conventional onal Ballistic missiles and Surface launced cruise missiles as they can easily be misconstrued as nuclear tipped and secondly they give away nearby vicinity of targets to strike in retaliation.
Air power by itself obscures where the planes flew from; where did they filed the formation, and hence the retaliation strikes are intermediatory tragets like air fields, hence survivability of your weapons depots ..
Gents having an aircraft with massive delivery package has a huge psychological effect on enemy, that is the air force can deliver thousand of tons in a single sortie and it scales as you have increased your survivability due to massive first strike.
if pakistan sorts out the logistical challanges and per year cost of mantaining the big strike aircrafts, they need to calculate operational dollar spent/TNT delivered, as their calcuation and buy that aircraft..
My two cents
Hi,
What we understand from Paf's explanations---they have shown no intentions of doing what you mentioned---.
Basically---the Paf has one plan---that is defense---. There is no other plan or aircraft to plan a diversified strike---.
Over and over---Paf is being SABOTAGED by its defensive mentality---what it has totally forgotten from the equation is NTUARL CALAMITIES---.
Natural calamities have been the main reason that the Paf does not have the right number of aircraft in inventory at this time---maybe there was earthquake---or there were floods---and to add to that a Virus strike---and to add to that a very poor decision regarding Yemen intervention---as well as wastage of time after 9/11 till 2005.
What it is coming down to is that the Paf has miserably failed to consider OTHER FACTORS beyond its control that control the purchase of the aircraft---.
Which mean---that once we find out that there are other factors coming at us right around the corner---then why not avail the opportunity when things are going good---.
