Pakistan to buy 40 SU-35 or Euro Fighter soon

[Zarvan]

Our typhoons will be the best choice for Pakistan. Eventhough it's expensive, but it's worth it at the end. Nothing good comes cheap .

After this news upcoming visit of Saudi Defence Minister is more interesting now

@Zarvan stated that he got the jet info from a source who had attended the briefing to the Senate. This should be interesting...

It is being discussed by Dr. Shahid Masood and other anchors (video posted on some forum here) that PAF is negotiating Su-35s with Russia.

 

[Zarvan]

What?

Pakistan should had bought these before they got the f-16 block 52. Too late now.


EFT and TFX would be good. No need for J-31 then. Though unlikely.

Pakistan plans to work on at least two 5th Generation platforms. One with China and other with Turkey

 

[Hassan Guy]

Can't we sell our F-16's and buy some Typhoons? I heard India was looking to buy some f-16's

Yes He said that...i watched that program and he also said that lot of corruption is also going on.

It doesn't have to necessarily. Even one like the TFX paired with the euro fighter fills all the gaps.

That is what PAF has decided to do. We will go for two projects it can increase but not decrease.

Russia offered us MI-28 and Pantsir and TOW and one other Air Defence system during IDEX 2014 and their delegation briefed our Military leadership about this I am supurised you don't know this


Lot of MI-17 and MI-8 are being operated by us

Tor not TOW and one u missed is BUK-M3.

 

[Zarvan]

Because he said Nawaz family is trying to become part of this deal and are to trying to get kickbacks

corruption is part of every procurement, that is bitter and sad reality.

Its hard to believe , but my take on this is, there is some thing big cooking First are EFTs and SU-35 expansive sure hell they are but please , please name any cheap and cost-effective 4.5++ bird (new one) . I am sure there is none but if u guys know any please let all other members know.
Now come to practicality , is it possible for Pakistan to have EFTs and(or) SU-35 , Off course Yes a Big Yes.
Brothers and sisters Money is not Issue here , the issue is availability , let me tell you all one thing if UK and others offers us EFTs (new and latest version ) note my words PAF will go and buy them.
I personally think it will be EFTs(if any came) Y because , First, KSA will soon have there own production line of EFTs(as per old reports and news) and secondly it will be a perfect brother in arm of TFX (Turkey 5th Gen).

To be technically correct, let me say Indo-Russia relations were never have been at the level of Indo-Soviet relations.

India will still lobby to stop the sale.
will T-50 and other projects between Russia and India get affected?

India will not let you buy any high end Russian equipment.....India is Russia's biggest customer in past and future also...better look for EF or Chines planes....obviously money is a big problem also

How effective was India in stopping Russian engine RD-93 for JF-17?

India is not interested in SU-35s. India is pursuing Super Sukhoi and PAK-FA/FGFA programs.

It is just a question of if Pakistan would be opting for SU-35s or not.

SU-35 production has already begun. Currently it's about four planes a year, produced from the 11 bedrooms of various Pakistani PDF posters.
