I give up, easier to try and engage with a 10 year old on this, modern war will not be about clean BVR kills all the time, ADF Vipers are indeed a thorn, especially when directed by AWACS

Next time try being a bit less rude. Also kindly get your math right!!

Cheers

9 Sqn dude packing some mad A2A heat. Quad C-5 Slammers coupled with a pair of M-Winders. The JHMCS sits underutilized on these birds. Sadly.

You have each betrothed yourself to the other in love & compassion, righteousness & truth.
In the spirit of Air Force's tradition, you have taken upon yourselves the responsibilities of a deep & loving friendship.
In the presence of the witnesses you have spoken the words & preformed rites that unite your lives.
With the power of God i now pronounce you 'MAN & VIPER'

Just wondering who was the other pilot with SL Hassan Siddique on that day. Shouldn't the kill be attributed to him as well? Don't know how things work inside dual seaters. @airomerix

except the PAF never wanted to put the money into getting top neurologists involved but was happy getting all viper pilots go bald

why PAF pilots lips are black? are they allowed to smoke?

What sort of generalization is that?

when i read your comment on bald paf pilots. It came to my mind from swift retort documentary. And I noticed lips are dark maybe because of smoking. Ok let me find it again.

Dude? You serious?? You know about the serious issue with the Jaguars engines? These planes are massively under powered, to the point they do not carry a full weapons load. In hot conditions they struggle to take off. If a Jaguar is on a bombing mission it will be the very definition of a sitting duck, it's thrust to weight ration being half that of a F-16

My last neighbour was a former RAF Tornado RIO who participated in the Gulf War, according to him the joke doing round in RAF circles was that it's the curvature of the earth that keeps the Jaguars airborne.

There is no trend and generally smoking isn’t taken as a healthy activity. Most pilots focus on fitness and today’s PAF pilot will often be found with some protien powder and supplements.
Upper body, glutes and neck muscles are focused on.

I dare say many are generally more fit than the generation that commands them ever was in their time.

I am strict on that, but I'd have smoking banned in squadrons entirely. Yes, the younger generation of pilots are now enhancing their daily activities with the gym culture brought in. December 2019 I had visited a friend from No. 17 squadron at Peshawar. He asked to show them pull-up exercises. Was very pleased to hear that they take it seriously.

The lower body should also be considered otherwise, many will have their own CG changed for life !!!
