As per my understanding @Khafee and @Oscar only talked about those AH-1Z which are put on hold not about AH-1w.

No Ah-1Ws are anywhere on the official radar.

[SecularNationalist]

It was tried in the 70s and like most of Idiot Bhutto's ideas failed miserably. There is general sense in this idea but the numbers are so huge and the requirements for training and equipment are so large and labour intensive Pakistan Army just cannot cope.
There could be a way where every year the army chooses to recruit say X K number of cadets and takes them through the army schools system as cadets. These cadets should be picked up at year 8 after fitness testing, go through metric and intermediate education. They should then be given a choice of either branching out into areas of their interests or going into Police and Army or other fields where the armed forces have use of them. If they choose the later their education is free provided they keep certain education, moral and physical standards. They can go on periodical training and complete their education. This would require a lot of arrangements which the army might not want to engage in as they already have enough recruits. However the training in an army environment will do wonders for these children and their general fitness and development. Plus the character building will eventually do wonders for the society at large.

An insane post, sorry to say. Anyone who has studied conscription will laugh their heads of reading this.

This shift in the stance towards Pak...providing with block 70/72 F16s, and AH1Z...does this mean that the engines for T129 might also be provided to Turkey so Pak can have T129s?

@Khafee @Oscar @Quwa

 

[Khafee]

@Khafee This is just my opinion, but is it perhaps that certain GCC countries have realised that until or unless Pakistan's own defence needs are not fulfilled vis-a-vis our neighbours (primarily India), Pakistan may never be able to disengage and help them in their time of need? Hence, we may potentially see them funding these big ticket items?

Give me a day, will PM you.

Could the recent escalation by India be linked to PAF potentially getting the most potent F-16 out there?

The block 70/72 can not only kill the Rafale, it can bury it and hold funeral proceeding. Specially in the hands of a PAF pilot a F-16 BLK 70/72 will be very difficult opponent.

NO
It only is showing how desperate the internal situation in India is at the moment.

You are entitled to your view point. I merely suggested a way out of the insanity of the Bhutto era. This by the way is not conscription but the formula the British Territorial army employs. So in exchange for the duty they take care of your educational requirements. If you want to opt out you pay the cost of the education or serve X number of years and then you are free.
