PAF J-35AE - News, Updates and Discussions

[Ali_Baba]

It doesn't matter... even if they dont find an answer to our J-35 purchase, they are still free to buy as many Rafael as they want, make new Tejas (even if rate of production is slower) and replaced existing pesa radar in their 200+ SU-30MKI with their indigenously developed AESA. So what is our response to an IAF that have 300+ AESA fighter jets ? 40 J-35, 20 J-10CE, and 23 JF-17B3 ?

You make the assumption that the indian inventory as you suggest will turn up immediately and Pakistan will remain dormant with the list you have indicated.

There comes a point, where even the value of AESA radars decreases when faced with a Stealth platform! Just look at the results of missions between F-22 Raptors and Eurojets and teen series jets with AESA radars in the US.

So you think by the time India has 200+ AESA SU-30s we will stand still? They have stated only 80 will be upgraded and that will take 10 years, so you are comparing 2026 PAF with 2036 IAF?

We two are looking at it from different angles. So lets just leave it here.

Because you believe that PAF can buy 40 J-35 as well as more J-10C and JF17B3. Which isnt true. If it was, we would have bought more J-10C after 2022 and more JFB3 after 2024.

India already have 230+ SU-30MKI, and search Virupaksha aesa. SU-30MKI are very potent aircrats, their only issue was lack of capable aesa radars. What do you think how many years will it take India to manufacture 230 aesa radars ? Its ground evaluation have been done start of this year and in-air evaluation will also happens this year. Give it 2 years of testing and 2 years of production. 2030-31 you have 230 AESA capable SU-30MKI.

If it is not an issue for you, then that's alright. I will end it here.

Not if we get TOT

What do you mean? No country could give you FULL TOT for their 5th gen jet to other country but partial TOT may be possible (Source code for integration of local weapons/missiles) etc etc

They can if the thing about pakistani 300 software engineer wer working on kaan

Relationship b/w Turkey and Pakistan is very strange. The pilot of the presidential plane during President Turgut Ozal's time was a Pak folk! How do I know? I met him when I was in Ankara for his father and an uncle of mine were colleagues at the Pak military....
