PAF J-35AE - News, Updates and Discussions

[ety]

LOL! So much is wrong about this statement. But its never too late to learn about basic Geography and some geopolitics.

If China has to take Taiwan, why would India even matter ? Do you really think India can do a thing or two about Taiwan ?

Is India that stupid to wage a war against China to defend Taiwan? Or is China that weak that it needs Pakistan to be at war against India to take Taiwan ?

Lastly, look at the map where Taiwan is and look where India is. and then reflect back at your comment. Thank you

India basically has no bearing on China's plan to take over Taiwan, the only real concern for China is US, and even it is diminishing day by day now. But, the delusional Indians like to think otherwise India is important in the case.

so many so-called defense experts and speculators out there

lol don't believe self proclaimed this expert nonsense video lol, And can you show me the pictures of Infrastructure built for J-35 in Pakistan ONSIT (commercial satellite images ) by this nonsense expert claimed?

Nope. Primary focus is always india.

Also, stealth fighters are great for strike missions or BVR against non-stealth platforms. Stopping a stealth aircraft from its strike mission is really difficult, so even if we suppose that Israeli F-35s have to attack Pakistan then what J-35s would do about it ? Can it detect F-35s at long distance ? The F-35s would just release their stand off missiles from safe distance and leave.

There is no Stand off weapon for F-35 that can travel 2000+ miles, and we have HQ-9B and JF-17 block 3 which have AESA can detect/track F-35 with decent range

China in contract to some hotheads here have no ambitions to plunge headlessly into a conflict...

It has baffled me to date but Pakistanis and Iranians on the forum want China to invade Taiwan more than the Chinese themselves wanting to do anything like that.

It's totally nuts.

 

[rafale]

That's even nothing!

According to their belief set, their mig-21 > F-16

and I still remember a post from an indian forum/member some 20 years ago, where one indian claimed one SU-30 can shot down 9 F-16s. Supposedly he might have heard that SU-30 can carry 9 missiles and because SU-30 is raptor of east + its Mini AWACS and what not LMAO! I mean how it must have felt that till date at any conflict all their Raptor of East has done is fallen out of sky.

Too bad, both F-16 and J-10CEs have banged their over hyped SU30s in real combat.......

This is peak cringe. Its mix of delusion with Bollywood euphoria and a false sense of superiority... a typical Indian trait

Well, Iran attacked Pakistan in January 2024 for no reason other than to tell it's own citizens that it's not afraid of attacking a nuclear popular.

The Pakistani response got their senses working again.

However, it doesn't stop Israel in the future from pulling a stupid stunt against Pakistan like they did with Qatar. India has done it twice now (2019 & 2025) just to get political mileage.

I guess it's best to be prepared instead of having to run around the world like a headless chicken afterwards.

I know this is going to be off-topic response. But that is exactly why we need a large joint base (naval + air ) base near jiwani. Because that is the closest part of Pakistan to Israel and we can initiate any of such plans from there.

My request lets post serious news or news worth discussing on this topic.

[Waz]

I'll start to mass thread ban people now. Everything from the Ottomans, agism, fantasy war scenarios, Turkic empire etc. Virtually nothing to do with the topic.

Is the PAF also updating logistics and maintainability at austere locations in support of the planned acquisition of the J-35AE? The PAF has bases for dispersion. Are the J-35s and for that matter the J-10s able to be dispersed with enough support to maintain a high enough tempo of operations per the operational doctrine of the PAF in wartime?

Is the PAF asking for a modification to optimize for shorter runway takeoffs, so operating from motorways will be possible from more stretches of motorways.

Three key words; Protection (in dispersed and hardened and camouflaged shelters near motorway), Posture (mix of capabilities), and sustainment (logistics).

Logistics similar to what being built for the F-35B in the USMC;

Inside How The Marine's Island-Hopping F-35B Playbook Is Being Written

F-35Bs operating from remote landing areas that could be destroyed soon after they takeoff is one way the Marines look to counter China.
