[🇵🇰-Airforce] Future Acquisition Plans for PAF

Lulldapull said:

This is the future of Air Combat folks. Yous looking at it right here. The two AMRAAMs shown slung on the pylons is just for display (for non stealth missions). Normally these are housed in the ventral rotary bomb bay and interchangeable for air to ground ordnance.

This thing has high subsonic performance and an RCS a fraction that of the F-35. Super high efficiency turbofan for long loitering times and fully integrated into the battlespace AI control.

Everyone dying to get their hands on one of these to leap frog every man n his dog in this sorta tech which makes manned aviation totally obsolete.

The Russians/ Iranians have already started an analogue based on this design called the 'Grom'......

This da ultimate holy grail guys:

Closer look at Grom, the Russian loyal wingman - AeroTime

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become a prominent part of large military expos in recent years. Russian Army-2020, which took place at the end of August 2020, was not an exception. One of many mockups presented there was introduced as the “loyal wingman”: a development, closely resembling...

sharma ye hae future of aviation.......look how imam putin quickly copied this along with Iranis. Most likely this Grom will gave several variants. A typical UCAV with air to ground capability, the second one with air to air/ loyal wingman concept and the third Irani one with Kamikaze one way mission.

All will be running on AI:

They already doing this under sea

Air is a bit complicated, spl with single seat fighters, dual seaters with a wizzo/wso may be able to command a few loitering drones.

Moore's law will apply here too, Kitna micromanage kar skte ho, after all.

Bc Kal ko those drones be further releasing mini and micro drones... fukn nuts.

oh the Irani Shahed 136's/ Arash, Karrar, Ababil and Mersad already have significant AI and their strange and very bizzare 358 missile LM on AI too bhai......Fully autonomous for the most part. The drones get the coordinates punched in via the laptop type interface. It gets linked up to either Beidou or Glonass and off they go. They avoid AAA/ missile sites/ populated areas by detecting surveillance/ acquisition radars and altitude is maintained as low as possible via sensors. E/O sensors provide info on any obstacles/ trees/ buildings along the way. Altitude is adjusted accordingly. They are accurate to within 5m bhai.

The 358 is a mystery L/M weapon and responsible for a lot of coalition kills in Yemen. The Karrar jet drone does 400knts and carries a sidewinder underneath or a Strella. Totally runs on AI and GCI input. It's being perfected into an interceptor drone. No need to control these things, they are pretty much autonomous.

Iran's far ahead in the drone game relative to other powers.

virtually all high value sites have some sort of SAM cover, the most sensitive ones have a multi layered one...

can those still be breached ? sure

can ayatulla crew do it ? not sure

Ayatollah crew pull that off daily or weekly in ME and Ukraine no? They breach defenses left right n center.

On Nov 26th, Imam Putin launched 188 Irani drones on Zalintsky. 96 hit their targets as admitted by Zalintsky. However, I believe the numbers which penetrated Uki defenses are more than that.

Its just that, many here will finally understand the real issue here of mass obsolescence of their arsenals, only when their own countries make the switch to modern weaponry. Big daddy Eeelond already spilled da beans 2 weeks ago on de Eff-thurtty faav no?
