Pakistan Army tested its air defense to hit the drone

Why are they suggesting they have acquired the tech to shoot down a UAV? I never thought technology was the hindrance in shooting down these slow moving vehicles.

i have posted pictures in the gallery of the previous years AAD Firing that almost shows all the weapons of AAD. i didnt post the SAM pics. i wish i could have posted the pic of that drone which they shoot at, should have cleared many doubts.

Speaking frankly the drones were so badly busted that there was no use of having a pic of them, moreover i had a pic or two but because of the reason mentioned above i didnt post it, and it's no secret. Deleted the pics, let's see if i can get it from a colleague :)

Drone Hit Test by PAK ARMY: A Demonstration of Capability or Helplessness?
Posted on January 19, 2010 by talkhaaba | Edit
This NEWS by SAMA TV hasn’t come as a good news to Pakistanis, instead this speaks volume of our helplessness rather brazenness. If you don’t agree with my words then tell me you have top class guns and the murderers are killing your kids but you just point those guns towards a testing range demonstrating you are well equipped. What should be called to that act? Le me keep my tongue closed as I have nothing less than dirty abusing words for that act.

The headline of News Reads, “Pakistan air defense capable to hit drone”. I ask what does prevent our “capable” armies from hitting US drones which have killed few “extremists” and hundreds of citizens of Pakistan. Or the inhabitants of FATA aren’t the citizen of Pakistan?

The news reads;

MULTAN: Pakistan Army tested its air defense system by hitting the drone on Monday. Pakistan Army tested its air defense to hit the drone in Muzaffargarh Khudai range. Pakistan Army’s air defense hit three drones successfully. Lieutenant General Ashraf Saleem said that Pakistan air defense is capable to hit the drone and all other fighter aircraft. He also added that Pakistan has advance and modern air defense system and Pakistan’s air defense system is capable to defend the air space of the country.

This news on SAMA website has also a comment under it by someone namely “arcane” who writes “Brilliant I love Pak Army now army has shown its intention and will now it’s the job of govt to give them the greens signal”

This is exactly the message which the Pakistani Army actually wants to publicize. In fact our army wants us believe that it’s not their fault if unchecked and no-stop drones “visits” us so often. It is the political leadership which has failed to shows its love for sovereignty and integrity of this strange peace of land called Pakistan and is unable to protect its citizens from the evil devil and savage United State of America which has been successful in converting its Afghan War into ****** war.

44 US drone have reportedly hits in Pakistan resulting in 700 civilians murders in 2009 alone.

As of April 2009, the total 60 drones had killed 14 al-Qaeda men while 687 civilians. According to a Report published in The News:

50 out of 60 drone attacks went wrong due to faulty intelligence information, killing hundreds of innocent civilians, including women and children. The number of the Pakistani civilians killed in those 50 attacks stood at 537, in which 385 people lost their lives in 2008 and 152 people were slain in the first 99 days of 2009 (between January 1 and April 8).

The attacks which have been killing 97.96% innocent Pakistanis including women and children, depends whether the Punjab dominated army and civil establishment accept them Pakistanis or not, is thing needs to be protested over? Or the capable Pakistan Army “respect” political decisions of US support? What makes the Army Generals the most obedient guys who burst over American’s Kerry Lugar bill is not an old story? What green signal I ask? Has it waited for political orders on Kerry Lugar Bill?

I think this was exactly as you put it .. The army has raised its hands and told the public we can take them down. I see it as a political move.

Yet another master piece.

Before posting do care to read the previous posts.

Drones can be downed with SAM, MANPADs, A2A Missiles, Aircraft Cannon fire, ground based Ack Ack fire.

All it needs are some variables & factors to be fulfilled for such action.

@ manglasiva: hey think with your head..... if we need to halt US drones we can very well pack their base. why should we stop it from air?
If Zardari refuse permission to US than drones will stop flying. what's so complicated?
American delegation is on its way to take new permissons on increasing attacks .......... so u see without permission they can't do ****.

hypothetically, yes you could use ack ack. But it would require some luck.

Manpads like RBS-70 is a damn good system, just requires a very steady and alert eye subsequent to firing.

If it were a cloudy day, then best of all luck.
