[Basel]

T129 Atak-A first time in a real Turkish Army exercise called Atis Serbest...

An army officer posted an awesome video on twitter of this bird made by the manufacturer, unable to post it here.

Pakistan Army seems to be very satisfied with T-129 and package Turkey is offering, what you know about the deal which is in final phase of negotiations? what version will PAA get? if i m not wrong you once posted that Pakistani version will be version 2 which will have MMW radar mounted on rotor like Apache and capability to carry AAM like AIM-9.

Did you go through your twitter account? because i saw it through my twitter account but was not able to download it.

He has commanded tank squadron and also performed duties on different places so he has good knowledge and experience therefore I asked him about many issues raised here.

No, I don't have infmation regarding current statues of Pakistan-Turkey negotiations for Atak-B.

Heavy Electronic Warfare Counter Measure deices of Aselsan called HEWS which T-129 Atak-B variant is going to get. Atak-B will be like a real fighter which have 360 degree sensors and devices all around the fuselage to provide the best surveillance and avareness opportunities to pilots... Centra comupters process all threats automatically and perform appropriate action When It is needed...

The single most best option is to signed a deal with US to supply their 50 ex-AC-130s with upgrade to PAA/PAF and don't go for anything else...

Why stop there, ask for retired/soon to be retired A-10's. Also add SR-71 and F-117 for good measure. Maybe even USS Kitty Hawk and USS Enterprise along with F-14's.

Those will be good for COIN but PAF will not be able to use them, the way PAA can use attach helicopters against well equipped IA which will be having CAS from IAF.

Why stop there, ask for retired/soon to be retired A-10's.

To be honest I have raised this issue with US Defense department on twitter to provide those EDA to Pakistan as we are non NATO ally and have right to have them to fight with TTP and its associated groups. As usual they are silent.

They may not like to provide them as they will be very effective against any Indian Armour thrust in Pakistan.
