That will be the plan. I bet PAF is desparately begging the Turks, Jordanians - anyone from their usual ummah friends - to lend them a few F-16s "off the record" so they can repaint them and pretend all iz well. Which is why the MOD should release the F-16 shootdown info, asap. Turkey is ...

Sirs, below tweet was the first to indicate one Wing Commander Faheem as leading PAF attack team. Squadron Leader Hassan Siddiqui that tried to attack WC Abhinandan was part of his team per below tweet (first to mention that around 1:30 pm on 27th Feb). https://mobile.twitter.com/hamzashafqaat/stat...

What does this even mean ? Doesnt make sense Usually, just detecting an aircraft on radar doesn’t mean having a ‘firing solution’. In order to have a firing solution, you need accurate azimuth, elevation and range/velocity data. Unlike ground radars, aircraft radars aren’t stationary. Also our airc...

See at the high speed the R-73 travels in the end zone it needs transverse/lateral pulses to do the steering as there is not enough space (v^2/R) to do the gradual turn needed for TVC. Transverse control engine is essentially a motor with lateral/divert nozzles to provide the thrust. Makes sense. T...

Thanks Rakesh for the pictorial explanation. The article also quotes the following. Their exceptionally high accuracy is ensured by the missile's main secret, the so-called transverse control engine, which rules out misses during the final approach trajectory. The transverse control engine is still ...

There is a HUD video on YouTube of 2 US F-14's in a 'dogfight' against Libyan MiG 23s sometime in the 80s. Its a 2 on 2 scenario over open ocean and yet everything is confusing to common people like us and before you know it things are over. This situation had so many more variables and our pilots s...

Their goal would have been just that. Somehow get an MKI hit and since we don't hide our losses, they could tom-tom it as them coming in and beating our best in our own airspace. All that bravado however disappeared when they realized the enemy here can and will shoot back! What people forget is jus...

Please answer the question only if it is open information:

On the MiG 21 Bis, are the countermeasures (Chaff/flares) dispensed manually by the pilot when he believes he is threatened or is there an automated system?

^^ As per an Indiatimes report it was an R73 missile.

Maj. Gaurav Arya's twitter has pictures and videos of our brother in captivity.

^^ Those 2 pictures were used earlier in some other news item as the impact points of the Pak bombs in the forest so not too sure about the F-16 claim.

That video is mind-blowing. I wish them all the success and congratulate them for their initiatives. We have been 'building' planes for a long time now and have also done a lot of 'jugaad' when needed. But the level of development and the spin-off benefits from the Tejas programme are simply at a di...

BTW in a case of fratricide, a paki mujahid pilot fired a missile and shot down his wingman. :lol: Link? Hopefully it was a F16 of Fizzleya. This is an old incident in 1987 against the Soviets. The F-16's were up against MiG 23s. The theory was that the F-16 leader was shot down by his wingman.

Was reading about VBIEDs for obvious reasons and came across this one from N Syria. Shows how difficult it is to counter these even with an open field of view and freedom to engage. If they are armored it makes it even harder.

Go where and how? Shooting at the protesters apart, perhaps more effort into crowd control devices like pepper bomb variants etc. I had heard of grenades made using the Ghost Pepper ( Bhut Jolokia ) as an example.

Another BS article by the BBC. Too many Indians read and believe these and then repeat those lines. If the gora world is attacked then the attackers are terrorists since they said so. If its us then always 'alleged' since our word has no value of course. Its sickening to read the way these reports a...

Looking at the picture of the house on the previous page gives an idea of the challenge faced. The terrorists have freedom of movement in the house and can bring down fire from changing positions. Lack of clarity on the number of terrorists and civilians complicates it further. And if there is a 'sy...

The Japanese use a 'point and call' system on the Shinkansen as another layer for safety. This could be evaluated to keep our train pilots/drivers alert and reduce chances of errors.
