anymore ‘defection’ (espionage) stories you guys got?
wierd alliance..
its so futuristic that it looks like some special effects stuff
I’ve seen the real ones,
btw WM of Scramble, I think its al-Quwwat al-Hawwiya al-Kuwaitiya
I think thats very basic arabic.. quwwat =force, Hawwa = Air
Good point GDL, I forgot that Mirage2k is still out there as well…
maybe a single engine rafale in future??
PLA, What F-22 does is cools its thrust
Cant France role out a cheaper version of Rafale..is it possible??
Then where the heck is it on the photos? Show me pictures or show me official CATIC brochures or info. What are it’s specs? Who’s making it?

Alright 1. Long burn R-27ERs 2. A larger, more powerful radar 3. RVV-AEs and RVV-AE-PDs 4. Advanced datalinking capabilties with the Biryuza datalink 5. Longer range and better kinematic performance for application at F-pole and A-pole tactics acheived through TVC and other goodies. You assume that the stealthiness of the JSF would make it win but none of us knows what it’s exact RCS is. Neither do we know what the RCS of a RAM-treated Su-30MKI is?
RAM-treated Su-30MKI…waste of money, you’d be better off implementing Plasma Stealth in future…im helping your case here 😛 you owe me ;), JSF will be stelathy enough to fire off superior BVR before Sukhoi gets a beep…Russians can never catch up with americans…..the gap is getting wider..down the timeline, it will be even wider…and deep down inside, even you know it.
But tell me, what use is FBW if you’re using a stable platform?
Many many many things……
Not replying to rest because its all you-know-what
F-1 and F-5 are two planes which will never stop looking sexy even 100 years from now!
Yahh if it did, it would really make stealth kind of useless in ways that US and other countries don’t want it to be useless, this would make a extremely big turning point in military aviation.
Agreed..Brains of ppl @ Pentagon would be upside down…
any info on anti-stealth tech?? basically very powerful radars able to pick up v.low RCS FO….
S-400 would be primarily used to destroy bombers and AWACS etc..?? and what it’s unit cost?
PLA..I guess we’ll goto the old policy of ignoring ppl who arent here for love of aviation..who hide there cheap shots behind sarcasm and indirect speech….
CAT1 made a very ‘realistic’ point, if thats the word ppl like to use 😉 , there is no need to add to what he said, infact nothing more to the topic apart from flames which we’re already witnessing, I’d say guys just let the topic rest and let it go, when there will be more news come back to it…there is no point in answering to unrelated comments whatsoever.
Speaking of news, here it is:
Pakistan to receive US assistance
Pakistan is nearing agreement with the US for the supply of military equipment that includes fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters, according to US and…

@ SabreAce and Sharmaji: I talked about J-12 in respect to timeline of JSF.
FC-1 already has IRST, so our Genius neighbours missed that part of there beloved Pakistani topics…?
Care to explain me Sabreace how is Su-30MKI going to win a BVR battle with JSF..and even if it does…what are the chances of success oh technical, logical, genius whatever one…also you me or anyone else here have not much information about FC-1 avionics..not all of them..so your saying this…I can bet if it wasnt for that Janes article..you’d have said FBW up there as well..seems like you guys forgot it all huh?? I remember it used to be the favourite word of some guys here in Fc-1 topics…
and god this topic isnt even Pak VS India whatsoever, but no, you guys just cant resist your hostile attitudes…where are the mods?….I’m not saying you guys cannot participate, or criticise or disagree with others, but theres a better way of doing it..not throwing a cheap shot here or there whenever you get a chance, or hide it in sarcasm or indirect speech…its this hostility which is the ‘new’ level of flame wars here…
PAF might wait few years and go with China’s 5th gen fighter rather than JSF…
