Qatar Emiri Air Force ( Why Is Qatar Building a Massive Air Force? )

[MMM-E]

The tiny Gulf nation of Qatar has launched a massive buildup of air power for an unclear purpose for around $50 billion



36 F-15QA Fighter Jets $6.2 billion

-- APG-63(V)3 AESA Radar
-- AN/AAS-42 Tiger Eyes IRST
-- ROBUST digital electronic warfare suite
-- Fly-by-wire control systems
-- World's fastest mission computer

F-15QAs will be able to carry 16 AIM-120 AMRAAM and 4 AIM-9X Sidewinder air to air missiles

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


24 EUROFIGTER Fighter Jets £5 billion ($6,6 billion )

Qatari Emiri Airforce EUROFIGTER Fighter Jets will be armed with AIM-120 air to air missiles and 100km MARTE-ER anti ship missiles

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


36 RAFALE Fighter Jets €6.3 billion ( $7.8 billion )

-- RBE2-AA AESA Radar
-- 140 SCALP Cruise Missiles
-- MICA and METEOR air to air Missiles

METEOR air to air Missile

Meteor is an active radar guided BVR air to air missile with multi-shot capability against long range manoeuvring targets in a heavy electronic countermeasures environment with a range in excess of 100 km

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LOGISTIC AIRCRAFTS

2 Airbus A330 MRTT

4 C-130J Super Hercules

8 Boeing C-17 Globemaster III

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

24 AH-64E Attack Helicopters $3 billion

-- 2.500 HELLFIRE Missiles
-- 5,000 Advanced Precision Kill Weapon Systems (APKWS) II

21 AgustaWestland AW139

28 NH-90 Helicopters €3 billion
16 NH90s in a tactical transport configuration and 12 NH90s in a naval configuration

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AIR DEFENSE CAPABILITY




1 AN FPS-132 Block5 EW Radar $1,1 billion

Range : 5.000 km

40 NASAMS-II $2 billion

Qatar is the first country to procure AMRAAM-ER surface to air extended range variant

11 PATRIOT Fire Units $9,9 billions

246 PATRIOT MIM-104E Guidance Enhanced Missile-TBM (GEM-T)

768 PATRIOT Advanced Capability 3 (PAC-3) Missiles

12 THAAD Launchers $6,5 billion

-- 150 THAAD missiles
-- 2 THAAD Fire Control and Communications units
-- 2 AN/TPY-2 THAAD Radars

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


btw Turkey spent around $60 billion for humanitarian aid to Muslim Countries between 2012 and 2020

so Turkey would buy all those sophisticated weapons for $60 billion


The UAE - KSA threat to Qatar and around $50 billion dollars goes to The US,The UK , France , instead of humanitarian aid to Muslim Countries

That indeed is a very powerful repertoire of planes and related equipment.

now thats an airforce mashallah. Pakistanis still piloting some of these beasts?

 

[MMM-E]

now thats an airforce mashallah. Pakistanis still piloting some of these beasts?

Maybe TURAF Pilots will train Qatari Emirate Airforce Pilots in NATO standards
probably We will see Qatari Emirate Airforce F-15QA , RAFALE and EUROFIGHTER Jets in Turkey for ANATOLIAN EAGLE international air force exercise in coming years

The Anatolian Eagle exercises are stated to be similar to the USA's Red Flag exercise at Nellis Air Force Base


and TURAF will be Turkish Military Base in Qatar in near future

 

[Mohsin A]

The West must laugh at these baffoons who spend billions every year investing in foreign lands. Not only that, They spend Billions buying weaponry only to fight amongst themselves whilst the west watches on whilst laughing their heads off!

and Turkish Military Base in Qatar

IMO This can only be good for Turkey.

Perhaps Turkey, Qatar, and to some extent Iran and Pakistan can cultivate military related ties.

 

[MMM-E]

Now Qatar needs to buy game changer AKINCI UCAVs with 280 km SOM Cruise Missiles and 65 km GOKDOGAN air to air missiles

thanks to Turkish Defense Industry to arm AKINCI UCAVs with

-- 280 km SOM-C anti ship missile to hit even moving Warships
-- 280 km SOM-J network enabled Cruise Missiles to hit Air Defense Systems like PATRIOT - S300
-- 100 km KUZGUN joint attack Bomb with IIR or MMW Radar seeker to hit mobile Air Defense Systems like TOR-M2 and BUK
-- 150+ km KGK-LR glide Bomb with IIR seeker to hit even moving targets
-- 65 km GOKDOGAN air to air missile to hit APACHE Attack Helicopters or Wing Loong UCAVs
-- 8 km UMTAS anti Tank Missile with top attack capability to destroy M1A2 Tanks

-- AESA Radar
-- SATCOM
-- 6 multi-core Artificial Intelligence Computers

 

[FOOLS_NIGHTMARE]

I think the future of Pakistan is tied up with Turkey and its allies. Pakistan should decrease its dependence on the House of Saud and US. The airforce of Qatar looks very impressive on the paper, a line up which we all dream for. Nevertheless they still need competent pilots to fly these machines. Hopefully PAF will get their hands on some of them.!!

Not possible. Turkey lack the financial of Saudi. How much money has turkey loan Pakistan to tide over many crisis? Zero.... Turkey themselves even need loan from others to save themselves. Talking about saving others.. lol.

So far what turkey did for Pakistan is only lip service support and sell more weapon to make Pakistan money..

 

[MMM-E]

Not possible. Turkey lack the financial of Saudi. How much money has turkey loan Pakistan to ride over many crisis? Zero.... Turkey themselves even need loan from others to save themselves. Talking about saving others.. lol.

Turkey has military agreements with Qatar and Pakistan


and TURKEY has great potential

Pakistan buys weapons from Turkey , not from S.Arabia
and in 10 years when hundreds of Turkish military projects enter service Turkey will equip Pakistan Armed Forces with most modern NATO standart weapons


about Turkish Economy

Turkey and Turkish Economy under attack by the West led by the US and Turkish currency dropped by 320% since 2013 .... if not , now Turkey would minimum $1,5 trillion of GDP , instead of $750 billion

1 ) ERDOGAN lowered interest rates from 24% to 4,9% between 2003 and 2013 .. so Erdogan saved our 700 billion TL ( $330 billion ) from blood sucker international interest lobby between 2003 and 2013

therefore ERDOGAN modernize whole Turkey , and therefore led by Erdogan Turkey develops around 700 military projects for over $70 billion

since 2019 ERDOGAN has started lowering interest rates from 16,5% to lower %9
that means in the next 10 years ERDOGAN will save minimum $200 billion from blood sucker international interest lobby


2 ) Turkey develops over 2600 projects to reduce annual imports by $130 billion

3 ) Turkey buys oil-gas for $50 billion per year ....... sooner or later we will discover oil-gas reserves in the Eastern Mediterranean and Turkey invest renewable and nuclear energy reduce annual gas imports

so $50 billion x 10 years = $500 billion

also There are over 330.000 of Thorium reserves in Turkey ( tens of trillions of dollars )
Thorium will replace Uranium for fuel in nuclear reactors
and only 200.000 tons of Thorim reserves can provide Turkey's 1.000 years electric energy

Turkey has a bright future

4 ) Qatar has great money and Qatar is with Turkey


if Pakistan join to Turkey-Qatar , then This can be good for Pakistan instead of working with American puppets S.Arabia and The Uae

So far what turkey did for Pakistan

Brother, China is our best friend and a brother and so is Turkey. We are just fed up with the SA regime/US nexus. Hopefully one day our friends/brothers China and Turkey will be mutual friends as well.

Do not forget, Qatar is a very close allies of US. In fact they are even more obedient towards US than Saudi.

 

[Rusty]

I actually know one of the higher up sheikhs who was in charge of some military something or another.
His Majlis had pictures of him training with Pakistani Pilots and model PAF F16 planes and what not.

The only guy in that country I actually respect.
