Then you have given the answer yourself.


Not all the aircrafts,just those assigned to ADA.

All others are made ready before the routine missions.

ADA = QRA ?

 

[Invicta]

ADA = QRA ?

Yes you are right they are the same thing.

 

[Talon]

ADA = QRA ?

Yes you are right they are the same thing.

Meaning is same but I don't think PAF uses this term.Also don't confuse it with QRF/URF which is a response force to any attack on air base from ground say a terrorist attack.

Normally flight schedules are released almost a week prior to the actual mission of entire sqdn by FLT CMDR. Same goes to the airmen and flight engineers. They prep the available flight worthy aircrafts accordingly.

This is not true.

Also, this is not possible because;

1) A week is too long of a time which means a greater risk of a leak. Opsec reasons.
2) PAF does not have the flight management systems in place for scheduling unlike TuAF.

Flight schedules for combat missions (CAPS) are released on a daily basis. Even training schedules are usually released on a daily basis unless there is a special provision.

For the same reason, engineers are on their toes as well on a daily basis.

As per my knowledge be it a training mission or ADA duty, schedule is usually posted a night before, sometimes changes are made right before the mission or sometimes there are surprise missions as well..but yeah posting schedule a week earlier,not gonna happen.
