[SAUD-404]

PAF Chief says that we can shoot the drones So why they dont shoot it..

Well we can but US also want to keep face in international community, its a very complected issue about some developing and Muslim country standing up against a super power will make things harder for Pakistanis all over the world ( did you get it ) ..............

My Checha was the only ATC in charge when the recon plane was shot down. He vectored the vipers onto the plane for the final kill. I have asked him to write in detail the whole scenario and send it to me. For some odd reason, the event did not get as much importance as it should have. The people involved were also left under-appreciated

China sends fighters to Pakistan for exercise

By Greg Waldron

China and Pakistan have conducted a joint-air exercise called Shaheen-1, which saw the first ever deployment of a Chinese air force contingent to Pakistan.

"A contingent of Chinese PLA air force comprising combat aircraft, pilots and technicians arrived at an operational base of the Pakistan air force," the latter service says. "The exercise has been designed to share mutual experiences, hone professional skills, and accrue maximum benefits from the expertise of the two air forces."

Pakistan has not disclosed details about the types of aircraft involved, the missions performed, the location of the exercise, or the total number of personnel involved. The only official image shows 24 officers, 12 Pakistani and 12 Chinese.

The exercise took place over two weeks in March.

China and Pakistan have a long history of defence collaboration. Most recently the two countries co-developed the Chengdu/Pakistan Aeronautical Complex JF-17 Thunder multi-role fighter. The Pakistan air force also had a prominent presence at 2010's Air Show China in Zhuhai, with a large chalet and several aircraft on display.

At the November show Zeng Wen, vice-president of the China National Aero-Technology Import and Export Corporation, said Pakistan had 50 firm orders for the JF-17, but could end up buying 200. The nation's first two full-strength JF-17 squadrons are in the process of becoming fully operational.

China-Pakistan co-operate in first joint exercise

Farhan Bokhari Correspondent - Islamabad



China and Pakistan conducted their first-ever joint air exercise in March 2011 in the first overseas deployment of a People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) contingent.

The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) said in a brief announcement: "A contingent of Chinese PLA Air Force comprising combat aircraft, pilots and technicians arrived at an operational base of the Pakistan Air Force". The exercise 'Shaheen-1' was not open to the media and the location and type of aircraft participating was not released. It is believed that PLAAF J-10 aircraft flew alongside Pakistan's JF-17 'Thunder' fighters, built with Chinese co-operation.

A senior Pakistani government official told that "this exercise is an important stepping stone for our two air forces to co-operate more closely than in the past. The PLA Air Force-PAF relationship has been mainly built on China supplying aircraft to Pakistan, but now we want to get closer on operational matters".

"A deployment to gain from each other's operational and professional experience is in fact a big step forward between China and Pakistan", a Western defence official based in Islamabad said on condition of anonymity.

In addition to the JF-17, the PAF has confirmed its interest in buying up to two squadrons of China's J-10 fighter, but these hopes have been constrained by its financial situation. Pakistan is also in the process of receiving four Chinese ZDK-03 airborne early warning and control aircraft.

By pitting JF-17s against the CCM school's F-16s would be one experience and against the J-10 totally another.

Good to see they are evaluating and i hope PAF does order the J-10s.
