Pakistan to buy 36 latest Su-35's - WDF Exclusive!

[Wolf-PK]

There is more "NO" to EF....race is between SU-35 & J15....atleast at planning level....SU35 was , say, a decoy but now a real chance. We might hear some thing really different ...PAF is in a habit giving surprises....even to its own people.

The Vipers IA are coming first, then the J-15

Sir, u mean AH1Z Vipers or F-16V?

The recent visit of the Italians to AHQ, was to formally ask them to re-consider. But that did not happen, since the J-15 PAF version will become a reality IA

So PAF is satisfied with the capability level of J15 that it's not pursuing EFT anymore. or the decision is more related to geo-politics/strategic?

Add to that the planned induction of newer subs and surface vessels in the PN... CPEC and the Maritime protection in particular and Pakistan's general security overall is getting a significant boost.

Turkey is buying 36 SU35 from Russia as per turkish paper

[Wolf-PK]

At least Turkey took a decision.....

Well turkey don't have big enemy like Us we have india

So this is dead too, then

Turkey is in different political situation.... SU35 Purchase for them is rather political move for being denied for F35.....

We are just being denied for everything we want from west..... So if SU35 fly in even in small nos..... It would be a huge success... and will open up doors to many more intended future procurements....

 

[CHI RULES]

Both SU35 and J15 are low level platforms as compared to EF if upgraded. EF may perform almost all roles which the mentioned platforms can as well as may counter Rafael easily. On other hand Su35 with PESA/huge size and J15 with perhaps AESA/ Huge size shall be easily detectable by any hostile jets of IAF and should be considered easy prey.

Further there is zero progress regarding any deal by PAF.

This is all because Pakistan put all its egg into the american basket. The airforce uptill the jf-17 program was an american run institution. Even now there is still alot of influence and america knows that. That's why it blackmails us with the f-16s. Unless PAF gets a jet that's above the f-16, block 52, then we will not see any other western systems.

You'd be a fool to consider the modren j-15 an easy prey.

Yes, unfortunately its true....... due this obsession we have rejected no of platforms in past and keep doing it till this date.....i would also dare to write...we will not be getting any F-16 ......Americans are playing with our psyche ....
