Useless datas without basic understanding, we don't want to explain all over again from A to Z.

Thanks!

I think there is no point planning to only a particular type of plane......also in combat, however sophisticated the technology is numbers do matter.....so, I just thought it is better to look at the two country's aircrafts and their numbers.

PAF :

1. F-16 Fighting Falcon - - 77
2. JF-17 Thunder - - - - - 100
3. Dassault Mirage III - - - 75
4. Dassault Mirage 5 - - - - 82
5. Chengdu F7 skybolt - - - 186
6. FC20 - - - - - - - - - - - 36

Total = 556



IAF:

1. Su 30 MKI - - - - - - - - - - - - - 157
2. Mig 29 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 68
3. Dassault mirage 2000 - - - - - - - 57
4. HAL Tejas mark - I - - - - - - - - 39
5. Mig 21 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 153
6. SEPECAT Jaguar - - - - - - - - - -151
7. Dassault Rafale - - - - - - - - - - 126

Total = 751


Considering each type of plane in one's arsenal has an equally capable rival with the opponent...greater numbers would ensure successful missions. We shud remember that air battles are won not by downing more planes of the enemy....but by achieving a specific objective during combat.

Captain spark your fighter nos are seriously exaggerated for PAF

PAF has 63 F16 (mlu/52) NOT 77

And 40 JFT not 100

IAF will not have 126 RAFALE until 2025.....

they havent even signed the DEAL YET stil negotiating terms TOT and price

 

[batmannow]

The best PAF can do, is to raze its JF17z blk2 numbers like 200 & get some 60- J-16s & 80 J-31 in comming 3to4 years !

What ever is said for j-16s in china , they r far better thn of Su-30mkis which india is having now & j-31 will surly will be a treat to watch against Rafaels in future!
If PAF can genrte such a force of modren airfeelt surly it will break the IAF,s edge for along long time ?

[Gentelman]

Thread is about SU 30 and not LCA.. Get a clue..

the thread is also not about J 10 its about SU 30....
u too get a clue.

 

[AbhimanyuShrivastav]

the thread is also not about J 10 its about SU 30....
u too get a clue.

Well, its about PAF's assets that can counter Su 30.. And some Pakistani brought in J10 as an alternative.. And you thought of LCA

When all is said and done, the difference will not be more than 18 - 20 in favour of India. That too when strategies and numbers are taken into account.
In a battle this 18-20 edge will prove to be decisive if the war prolongs.

However if you insist on asking a question on how to counter MKI then one on one MKI is better than what Pakistan can field and difficult to counter.

Induction of stealthy J31 fighters will help in some way...........

SU30MKI is not a proven jet yet, ecessive fear is not neccessary at all.

SU30MKI is not a proven jet yet, ecessive fear is not neccessary at all.

The question is how to counter it when the proving stage comes.
