TAI WILL UPGRADE PAKISTAN F-16 MLU FIGHTERS WITH NIGHTTIME CAPABILITIES.

[tarrar]

Pakistan should keep upgrading its F16 fleet with all the latest Turkey has to offer. US won't provide anything to Pakistan so Turkey is our only solution for our F16 & US is not concerned with Turkey upgrading Pak F16's.

You mean JHMCS. Here on PAF Blk 15 MLU'd a/c's
View attachment 372509

This is not PAF!

 

[Bilal Khan (Quwa)]

This is not PAF!

This is certainly the PAF.

 

[Storm Force]

Do all of Pakistan seventy three f16 lack night vision or just the fifty five older blocks .

I think the 18 modern ones block 52 may already have night vision

Could it be new Aselpod ?

ASELPOD is a multi-sensor targeting pod consisting of:

• High Resolution, 3rd generation FLIR
• Laser Range Finder / Target Designator
• Laser Spot Tracker
• Laser Pointer
• Advanced Video Tracking (Simultaneously on IR/Day Video)
• IR/Day Video & Mission History Recording
• Advanced Image Processing
• Providing Highly Accurate Geo-Location Coordinates
• Growth Potential for Mission Requirements

With a modular mechanical design, ASELPOD comprises high density capabilities.

ASELPOD designed to fit fighter jets such as F-16's and F-4's and can be adapted to various air platforms.

Applications

Hi can you please mention pods range also
Thank you

 

[JustHappened]

That's a good question there is only Laser Designator range mentioned.
Up to 20 km, ± 15 m resolution

That it is better than Lantirn and could exceed also Sniper.

Quote :

The LTS also had a masking avoidance curve display (preventing firing the laser at the jet) and eventually a north orientation curve and 40,000 feet capable laser.

Two points
NVG gives you 360 degrees night visibility in cockpit and cockpit internal lightening need to be compatible with nvg
W/o nvg and compatible cockpit you do get night visibility in mfd/hud with pod but that is it
all three together nvg, compatible cockpit plus pod you get everything

Paf mirges has nvg and compatible cockpit but no pod for precision munition so may need buddy lasing

You can get all systems together from Aselsan

 

[khanasifm]

ADELPOD needed data link to make it more than targeting pod into an isr platform as well not sure if data link has been tested, per one of aselpod site it was being next phase ????

ASELpod specs for range for laser designation is better than Chinese pods

 

[JustHappened]

There was a news in defence publication Monch

monch com tr/TR,866/ilk-aselpod-ihracatini-gerceklestiren-aselsan-temmuz-ay-.html

They claim that ASELPOD has two way encrpyted data link. It is able to detect a F-16 from 45 km distance and a tank from 15 km distance. The laser designator has a range of 25 km.
It has 28x21°'SFoV wide angle view on his thermal cam, which either Lantirn nor Sniper have.
Aselpod is not liquid cooled but aircooled and has a longer lifetime of the lens, cause there is no liquid leak damage.

Because new targetting pods of aselsan uses diod pump laser range finder and pointer which are usefull over 20000 ft.

"If you take by two times, you need to return by four times" - a Persian saying

Elhamdulillah!! It's great to learn that TAI is heavily involved with PAF. Bringing F16 productions to Turkey was a landmark achievement of Rahmetli President Turgut Ozal. He instilled that "Yes, we can" attitude into the minds of the Turkish folks to modernize their economy, infrastructure, industries, telecommunications, trade, defence, banking etc. It's paying off more than anybody could guess....

Bro you remind me another great friend of Pakistan and a good brother to us. May Allah rest him peace

Sükran brother. 2017 could be a decisive year for us.
