    My dear chap, I merely have two posts on the matter thinking about ways it could be so. But it got you & Pack. rather excitable!

    About the reality check, I think you need a good look in the mirror- I am still awaiting your reply to the questions you weaselled out of replying on the other thread- should I post them here for you to tell us about the long awaited answers?

    Surely, the mere mention of a neighbour with better economic & other military contracts trying to achieve its strategic objectives should not get you so worked up! What India does is after all, India’s prerogative and should not be confused with Paks! No harm in discussing it either.

    Have a pint & relax.

    I am relaxed, if people where to compare yoru frenzied posts, often bordering on religous and racial hatred, you would see who needs to chill.

    India may not even have an AWACs by 2010, by which time PAF Erieyes will have been in the air for 3 years.

    I am waiting to rlelax and see reports flooding in in the next few years about “integration problems” in Isreal with the IL-27 and the Phalcon.

    Of course, I need only post one negative comment on IAF na dnot only will I get you, but teh rest of the goon show throwing around personal insults. Get you house in order before suggesting others to chill…….

    Dude
    You were he one jumping up and down on how India could pressurise Sweden. When reality dawns on you, dont take it out on the messengers! We are very cool. Suggest you sit down and relax. Incidentally, AFM reports that the first IL-76 will not be delivered to Isreal for upgrading to Phalcon till early 2007, so probably wont be in service till 2008.

    Pakdef reported Tornado F3s going to Gwalior 2 months ago. This news had been confirmed in this months AFM. 6 F3s from Leachurs based 43sqd “Fighting Cocks” along with one E3 and one VC-10 are going in October.

    Expect the usual media reports on who was better! 😀

    Uh oh. Paks AEW & C in trouble?

    They are not the first though-others- have also brought this up.

    Saab bought out Ericcsons radar business, but this move could still affect the deal, especially if India makes a point to tie in other purchases including the 400piece (overall numbers go upto a massive 1800 units) Artillery procurement, for which Celsius is a frontrunner.

    Well theres always China. Tho’ the F-16s would remain bereft of AEW coverage. Dont see the US agreeing to let Chinese engineers mess around with the APG-68 V(9), IFF etc.

    Deal is done and dusted. May be wishful thinking on yoru part. But penalising Ericsson at thsi stage is closing teh stable door after the horse as bolted.

    And who might that be? Other than being proved wrong everywhere and blowing hot gas about PAF and PN which only helps others expose their weakness what have you achieved?

    Proved wrong? You guys were claiming it took PN 5 years to upgrade P-3Cs, and I posted US Military documents in the PN thread, showing it was just 18 months! Thats just this morning. I have posted evidence to contridict much of the heresay, assumptions, lies, misinformation and propaganda. You and the local clown show just revert to personal attacks whenever I do this.

    I wonder why? 😀

    Err why would they be based any where else? They are all based on the border not just pakistans border. That does not make them pakistan centric. You are making no sense. The joined excercises are meant to increase interoperatability and rajasthan is the easiest place. I assume that next you would be saying since pokran is in rajasthan india made the nukes to deal with threat from pakistan?? I think its very clear that nukes were due to threat from china.

    All of IAF Western and South Western commands face the border with just one country. Pakistan. Both these commands contain all of the IAFs premier fighters. All their wartime dispersal bases will be near their home bases.

    Am I making sense yet, or are you still having trouble taking this onboard?

    No, just helping to stop spread the misinformation thats seems to be all over this forum. If me effectivky correcting some assumptions made by you guys is an source of worry or concern. Its not really my concern. Just as long as you know there is someone here you will be around to correct you lies. 😉

    Stop spouting rubbish. They are based where they are required. I am sure PAF would love to have IAF based in south India or andamans, but then IAF is not dumb like PAF. As I said practising just for PA or PAF or PN is simply lowering the standards.Enough said.

    Your not making sense. Thats exactly what I am saying. IAF and IA are indeed based where they are required. All near Pakistan. You have made my point for me.

    One glance at IAF and IA basing and where they exercise will put paid to yoru rubbish. Its fairly obvious. If you cant take on board facts then dont.

    Really? Where did the Cope India excercise take place? IA/ IAF practice near rajasthan because it is a vast desert with very little population. Not because pakistan is next to it.

    You really believe that? I said joing IAF/IA exercise. Cope India was just an air force exercise and relativley small scale.

    All major IAF/IA exercises have been close to Pakistan and invloved IA armoured units. If you cant figure out the obvious then I really cant help you…

    Like it or not, Indian Army and Indian Air Force is VERY Pak-Centric

    Lets clear thinsg up here a bit. The first contract to overhaul the 2 P-3Cs was awarded in Jan 2005 to LM. So in fact it has taken just a year and a half to get these two birds overhauled, updated and airworthy. First Ex-US P-3Cs are due in Dec 2008. Lets try and keep sensationalism or misinfiormation to a minimum here.

    (Defenselink — 24 January 2005) Lockheed Martin Corp., Marietta, Ga., is being awarded an $11,087,369 ceiling-priced modification to a previously awarded cost-plus-fixed-fee contract (N00019-05-C-0005) to perform in-country standard depot level maintenance on two P-3 Update II.5 aircraft, to include repair and maintenance tasks necessary to return the aircraft to a “safe for flight condition”. In addition, this modification provides for on-the-job training of Pakistan Navy D-level maintenance personnel for the Government of Pakistan under the Foreign Military Sales Program. Work will be performed at the Naval Station, Mehran Karachi, Pakistan (90 percent) and Marietta, Ga. (10 percent), and is expected to be completed in April 2006. Contract funds will not expire at the end of the current fiscal year. The Naval Air Systems Command, Patuxent River, Md., is the contracting activity.

    I think its irrelevant because the Indian Armed Forces do not have a Pak-centric training regimen. (Interception practise may be slightly F-16 specific but thats just a small fraction) Tomorrow, if someone from somewhere, better equipped and better trained comes to invade, the IA/IN/IAF must give an appropriate reply and get the job done.

    I disagree Harry. Almost all of the IAF/IAs large joint exercises have been near the Pakistan border and practising desert warfare. If thats not Pak-Centric I dont know what is.

    I think Qatar may go for F-16s too.

    They would then be able to take advantge of the huge training and maintence facilities being set up in UAE.
