I wonder why Pakistani military aviation has become the favorite punching bag for the Pakistani militants..

The basic problem is that the Taliban have a target-rich environment with many choices to attack according to their own plans. Our problem is the opposite in that we do not have concentrated targets to attack to damage the Taliban.

PAF is playing vital role in striking the terrorist den, that's the reason they want to hit airbase. Because they now answer for any air strike, in ground troops they show resistance .

I think both navy and airforce are soft targets although they are not really involved in anti terror op that much..compared to PA.
