Lol the PN straight-up saying we lack the aeronautical capacity to carry out the conversion work. @JamD @kursed
I see that as a good thing IMO.

At least they are not high on delusion or the belief that throwing some money towards a project and paying a salary to someone with a certificare is enough to achieve what other countries have, at the same standard.

A positive change in mindset.

Hasn't this same drone been shot down ruthlessly by the Houthis in SA?

Or is this a different model?

More to the point, PAF is refusing to let the the other services use PAC.

So what's next for future PN procurements? SSB/SSBNs
Yes. Probably already in final stages
, destroyers?
Jinnah is a destroyer size already.

They are honest about their R&D capacity, which is more than what you can say about some other services/programs *cough cough* Azm *cough*.
A certain other service has access.
 
going forward this decade we should attach our selves with Turkey in all naval projects

for the Air Force we have China and army we can do ourselves

in return can can share its vast experience in ballistics missiles and nuclear weapons with Turkey

including the integration of nuclear Babur on submarines

I am sure Turkey would love that

PN acquired only four CH 4B UCAVs.
What opinion should we make up after this small purchase.
Doesn't this indicates that PN will go for HALE UCAV as soon as strike role HALE UCAV comes online.CH4B is only for stop gap solution?

Also can't we say that after PAC completes its UCAV's testing,PN will go for that or possibly Anka S ?

What's your opinion @Eagle about PN acquiring only 4 UCAVs?
 
PN should opt for WJ-700, but that likely will depend on WJ-700 Maritime capabilities. WJ-700 should be able to compliment the ATR-72s, P-3Cs and Sea Sultans in the EEZ. Now I am not saying that CH-4B or ANKA-S are not a good choice, they have there place as well such as Coastal Surveillance / attack.

It's just that WJ-700 should easily dash out to the targeted area at much higher speed, deliver CM-400KG type load and dash out, or provide reconnaissance 'in clean config mode' of the targeted area to the other assets to take appropriate actions.

Now it doesn't have to be WJ-700, any other cleared for export in the same class should suffice, that is if the intended UAV passes and or meets the PNs required / set criteria.

PS: Not sure of the RCS of WJ-700, but I do understand that it's no Dark Sword or Sharp Sword which likely are not cleared for export, yet.
