Pakistan UAVs News & Discussions

[Oscar]

Im pretty sure around 1.5 years the saudis already had there indiegnous CUAS systems as well as those polish CUAS systems in service by then so idk why they would be looking for more types. And NRTC has already sold EW systems to the Saudis so them not selling a CUAS to SA totally doesnt make any sense

They did not - would not have come up had I not been involved in it.

Pakistan unmanned assets can take care of various COIN operations effectively.

A PAF Bayraktar TB-2 drone from No. 64 UAV Squadron based at Murid AFB.

The deployment of these efficient drones and their low cost munitions in large number has become a nightmare for enemy's armoured columns.

TB2 conducting night flight just north of Murid Airbase just now. Still in integration phase? Or training crew?

I'd assume it's training.

A recent image (October 2023) indicated that Pakistani AF has acquired WL-2s which can carry up to 12 AG-300M ASMs.

48 reportedly ordered in 2018. First Seen in October 2023.

Frankly with wide spread insurgent attacks in Balochistan and KPK on the rise, most hardened posts in each district should be armed with a small squad of quadcopter drones (say 5-10 ababeel MR10s). Any post/position in the locality (within 30km) can be reinforced in minutes from local drones carrying up to three 60mm mortars. A flight of 5 such drones would likely make short work of attacking TTP or BLA terrorists, dropping of to 15 mortars on their heads in short order. Such drones likely cost less than $10K per drone (likely less than $5K) given similar payload civilian drones can he bought on the open market for $3-4K. That will buy time for bigger more centrally housed assets like TB-2, WL-2, CH-4, or Shahpar II to get on scene to clean up.

And yet it won't.

And yet it won't.

They are being used more recently actually.

FC especially has been adapting with mini quadcopters dropping mortar shells and soon FPV drones.

The Turkish plan is to launch 10 KEs for each Greek F-35! It shows how cost effective this platform is from the production, training, maintenance, supply chain etc. perspectives. Moreover, Baykar is heavily investing on turbo engines in JVs with the Ukrainian companies. All bases are being covered....

The PAF's job is to get fully invested in these types of platforms to indigenously implement USAF's CCA (collaborative combat a/c) concept in verbatim...

JF17 PFX + KE + ANKA-3 is the way to go....
