So not so long ago, India was screaming for screaming from rooftops, exalting it's home bred intellect and lauding them in sucessfully carrying out India Nuclear tests.

Going back to 1989 - right wing government - speculation rife the a nuclear test is imminent- American spies close at hand, sniffing....and BAM out of nowhere India announces it's first nuclear test was a grand success( it took USA 6 tests to get it right) - Celebrations, the right wing government is voted back to power - India does some muscle flexing, demands permanant seat in the UN security council.....
Silently in the backdrop British experts denounced the tests as a sham, stating that the yield was only 20KT, nothing close to the average 45KT artillery in the posession of USA, Russia and China. Nonetheless India never had a shortage of zealots (maybe just paid mouthpieces) who immediately took the reins of the countries vast but astoundingly inefficient media, threw figures in the air, citing India brilliance and how the west was racist and ignorant.... blah blah blah...it was all akin to a irritating buzzing sound in the ear.

11 years later the truth is finally surfacing. A top scientist who was actually present at the nuclear testing site has scoffed claims that the hydrogen bomb was a success. India at most is probably equipped with just an atom bomb.

What do you make of it all?

I'm not sure, but here's an interesting article about India:

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?sid= ... d=20601109

MCL,
I am not surprized at all. Tha first domestic tank Arjun with more than 50% of foreign parts ended in a fiasco recently. H-bomb is more sophisticated product.
I told you not compare India with any listed countries. The distance between China and India is more than 30 years, but even China received technology of H-bomb from SU. Crazy fool Khruschev transfered it to Mao. Stalin would never do that.

^^^ It's highly plausible. Even the recent moon mission was a crash and burn. Part of the problem stems from India's lax journalism standards. It's more like propoganda less journalism.

On the flip side it would probably mean that even Pakiland does not posess sophisticated nuclear arsenal.

pakis have technology from North Korea and the chinese. Like the chief said, the soviets gave it to the chinese and I wouldnt be suprised if the chinese gave it to the pakis. Why do you think USA wants a say in that part of the world?

I also do know that the chinese and the pakis are making a new jet fighter. They already collaborated on various other arsenic products, and this is what India is envy of.

Mind you russians do sell their arsenal to the indians now and then. I am talking about planes and ships etc etc. How good the russian planes are? Some of them keep on dropping out of the sky now and then

Somebody should shut up his mouth because all Chinese aircrafts is a bad copies of Russian aged ones. I don't have enough imagination what Pakistan can develop themselves except bad copies of AK47, which were revealed in weapon exhibition in Turkey this year.

India hasn't bought very modern aircrafts from Russia but even those aircrafts were enough to kick Pakistani arses badly in Kargil conflict.

Now your going to upset Rudy

Well looks like RC's got the situation under control.

Post Kargil there was rumour going round in Pakiland, It seems the Pakistani Air Force has decided to cut costs, so they're only training their pilots to take off. The Indian pilots will take care of thy're landing

Talking bout Russian fighter jets, Yaa the Migs are out dated. But recently a Sukhoi 30 developed a technical snag and crashed. That's not good. The Sukhoi's are cutting edge competing with the F23's. So there are issues with Russian products.

Pakistan is still using F15's RB, planes literally extinct in the US fleet.
Seriously RB have you seen Chinese cars? They're a joke, can you imagine the same brains making a plane?
But ur analogy is flawed. Paki strike planes are mostly US, interceptors and reconnaissance are French, heavy-medium lifts are US and French while the basic trainers are Chinese.
Offcourse those US and French planes are OUTDATED!

Planes apart India uses Phalcon radars imported from Israel, top of the line.

Besides RB have you heard of Abdul Qader Khan? Need any more credibility regarding ur 'esteemed' nuclear program?

did i say chinese aircrafts are GOOD or BAD? stupid ass@ole read what I said and then bloody comment.

Pakistan cant develop good copies of AK47 but they sure can develop nuclear bomb which scares the hell out of india


Kargil is in Kashmir. Aircarfts were not used there, artillary and footsoilders were used. lol you should open your mouth when you know the full picture mate.

err RB? Mind reading this?
Air Operations

From May 11 to May 25, ground troops supported by the Air Force tried to contain the threat, assessed the enemy dispositions and carried out various preparatory actions. Entry of the Air Force into combat action on May 26 represented a paradigm shift in the nature and prognosis of the conflict. In operation Safed Sagar, the Air Force carried out nearly 5,000 sorties of all types over 50-odd days of operations.

The Western Air Command conducted the three-week-long exercise Trishul three weeks before Kargil. During Trishul, the IAF flew 5,000 sorties with 300 aircraft using 35,000 personnel and engaged targets at high elevation in the Himalayas. The IAF claimed to have flown 550 sorties in Kargil, though just about 80 were on or close to the target. Soon after Kargil, both the commander-in-chief and senior air staff officer of the Western Air Command were mysteriously transferred to the Central and Eastern commands.

Operations in this terrain required special training and tactics. It was soon realised that greater skills and training were needed to attack the very small/miniature targets extant, often not visible to the naked eye.

The shoulder-fired missile threat was omnipresent and there were no doubts about this. An IAF Canberra recce aircraft was damaged by a Pakistani Stinger fired possibly from across the LoC. On the second and third day of the operations, still in the learning curve, the IAF lost one MiG-21 fighter and one Mi-17 helicopter to shoulder-fired missiles by the enemy. In addition, one MiG-27 was lost on the second day due to engine failure just after the pilot had carried out successful attacks on one of the enemy's main supply dumps. These events only went to reinforce the tactics of the IAF in carrying out attacks from outside the Stinger SAM envelope and avoiding the use of helicopters for attack purposes. Attack helicopters have a certain utility in operations under relatively benign conditions but are extremely vulnerable in an intense battlefield. The fact that the enemy fired more than 100 shoulder fired SAMs against IAF aircraft indicates not only the great intensity of the enemy air defences in the area but also the success of IAF tactics, especially after the first three days of the war during which not a single aircraft received even a scratch.

The terrain in the Kargil area is 16,000 to 18,000 feet above sea level. The aircraft are, therefore, required to fly at about 20,000 feet. At these heights, the air density is 30% less than at sea level. This causes a reduction in weight that can be carried and also reduces the ability to manoeuvre as the radius of a turn is more than what it is at lower levels. The larger radius of turn reduces manoeuverability in the restricted width of the valley. The engine’s performance also deteriorates as for the same forward speed there is a lesser mass of air going into the jet engine of the fighter or helicopter. The non-standard air density also affects the trajectory of weapons. The firing, hence, may not be accurate. In the mountains, the targets are relatively small, spread-out and difficult to spot visually, particularly by pilots in high speed jets.

The Indian airfields nearest to Kargil were Srinagar and Avantipur. Adampur near Jalandhar was also close enough to support air operations. Therefore, the IAF operated from these three bases. The planes used for ground attack were MiG-2ls, MiG- 23s, MiG-27s, Jaguars and the Mirage- 2000. The Mig-2l was built mainly for air interception with a secondary role of ground attack. However, it is capable of operating in restricted spaces which was of importance in the Kargil terrain.

The MiG-23s and 27s are optimised for attacking targets on the ground. They can carry a load of 4 tonnes each. This could be a mix of weapons including cannon, rocket pods, free- fall and retarded bombs and smart weapons. It has a computerised bomb sight which enables accurate weapon delivery. These planes were, therefore, ideal for use in the mountainous terrain of Kargil.

However, on May 27, the MiG-27 flown by Flt Lt Nachiketa, while attacking a target in Batalik sector, developed an engine trouble and he had to bailout. Sqn Ldr Ajay Ahuja, in a MiG-2l, went out of the way to locate the downed pilot and in the process was hit by a Pakistani surface- to-air missile (SAM). He ejected safely but his body bearing gun- wounds was returned subsequently. The state-of-the-art Mirage-2000s were used for electronic warfare, reconnaissance and ground attack. This fighter delivers its weapons with pinpoint accuracy. In addition to carrying free-fall bombs, it also fires the laser-guided bomb with deadly effects. In fact, it was this weapon that caused considerable devastation to Pakistani bunkers on the ridges at Tiger Hill and Muntho Dhalo. In the Mirage attack on Muntho Dhalo, Pakistani troops suffered 180 casualties.

Because of the need to engage Pakistani targets in the valleys and on ridges, the slower helicopter gunship became an important requirement. The load-carrying Mi-17 was modified to carry 4 rocket pods with air-to-ground rockets. This helicopter proved effective in engaging Pakistani bunkers and troops. On May 28, while attacking Point 5140 in Tololing sector, one helicopter and its crew were lost to a Stinger heat-seeking missile. Thereafter, because of the number of SAMs being fired, helicopters resorted to evasive tactics but persisted with the attacks.

The operations restricted to Kargil area did not lend themselves to the use of air power. There was a constraint of not crossing the Line of Control (LoC) to the Pakistan side. The IAF was, therefore, not at liberty to destroy the Pakistani supply lines and smash the logistic bases across the LoC. However, such attacks were done on Pakistani facilities on the Indian side of the LoC. The targets were identified along with the Army and engaged by day and by night in precision attacks by Mirage 2000s and Jaguars. Supply lines, logistic bases and enemy strong points were destroyed. As a result, the Army was able to pursue its operations at a faster rate and with fewer losses.

To obviate the threat from SAMs, bombing was done accurately from 30,000 feet above sea level or about 10,000 feet above the terrain. In these high level attacks, the infantryman does not see his own fighters and, therefore, feels that air support is not there. It is estimated that in operation Vijay, about 700 intruders were killed by air action alone. The IAF has intercepted a number of enemy wireless transmissions indicating the effectiveness of IAF attacks.

Pakistan Air Force fighters were picked up on the airborne radar of our fighters but the PAF planes did not cross to the Indian side of the LoC. Nevertheless, as a precaution, IAF , strike aircraft were accompanied by fighter escorts. After all, in the recent past no war has been won without control of the air space in which operations are conducted.

sorry to dissapoint u mcl, but indians are pissing rubbish drivers. I mean if a fast car drives past them, they start shaking their legs and literually piss in their pants. So I dont see how exactly they gonna take care of pakis landing Pakistan Airforce has other ways of generating income which involves training pilots from KSA, UAE and other countries such as Libya.

MCL sorry but there is NO f-15s in Pakistans arsenal. Not sure where you got this info, they were using but stopped now. They have now 43 f-16s from USA and probably will get 18 to 20 more.

Got to agree with you, chinese are not good at making cars on their own but do remember I said Pakistan and Chinese making planes. two brains are certainly better then one .

Yes will agree that most planes that Pakistan have are either French or Chinese and only 40+ F-16s which are used for multi roles. Lifting planes, yes mostly are from USA, a few from Spain not FRANCE and one from RCs country good old USSR .

Sorry to dissapoint you MCL, but the trainers are from China and PAKISTAN. Most of them made in Pakistan.

Will agree with you that the French ones are outdated however the american planes are new and using the latest technology.

what about Abdual Qadeer Khan and the credibilities of the nuclear bomb? In my opinion he was a great man, he was a given a task to generate a nuclear bomb and he did exactly that. How good that nuclear bomb is? I guess you should ask the indians who dont want to attack pakistan just because of the fear that the pakis might launch their nuclear bomb. Or maybe you should ask the americans how they would feel if the Paki Nuclear bombs fall in the wrong hands .

rc yes some of the chinese aircrafts are identical copies of aged russian ones. However the pakis have upgraded some of these planes with ROSE. But there are some planes in Pakistan arsenal which are not copies of russian planes. for example http://www.pac.org.pk/amfsite-final/jf17.html the JF17 have been made by Pakistan and China, using the western technology and parts. In fact the only thing russian about it is its engine. THE JF17 is the development i was talking about. Am suprised that a chief like you didnt know about it .

Would you like to me to explain to you how china and pakistan are developing other weapons .

Sigh....The man will sell nuclear technology to the highest bidder. AQ Khan a great man, OJ Simpson a man of impeccable character right?
But following the mind boggling revelations of the Indian Nuclear program, maybe he was simply selling an atom bomb and calling it a nuclear one...
Although the revelations that India is not capable if 40KT should scare you. One atom bomb is all it'll take, it was previously believed that an Indian nuclear strike in Pakiland would affect Indian northern states as well.
India does not attack Pakiland because it believes in humanity, not because we're afraid.
I remember a time not so long ago during Mrs Bhutto, Sharif and Musharraf's time, you people would finance terrorists in Kashmir and then call them freedom fighters. Today when ur government has it's back against the wall, you'll don't seem to be calling them freedom fighters no more. Instead you've sent in ur armies to exterminate them.
As usual some will only learn after being bitten!

Typical rudeboy, can't even enter a serious thread without talking about arseholes and pissing.....

Oh I see RB did not comprehend? Lemme rephrase

Post Kargil there was rumour going round in Pakiland, It seems the Pakistani Air Force has decided to cut costs, so they're only training their pilots to take off. Cuz sure enough Indian pilots will bring em down

He still won't get it. Mention air to air missiles, there, now the penny surely must have dropped....

rudeboy wrote: In fact the only thing russian about it is its engine.

Only engine. Continue joking? The engine costs more than the rest aircraft and the most technically sophisticated part. 30 years China couldn't have copied it.

JF17 is a cheap version that Chinese downgarded for Pakistan only. Where you found there another brain and Western technology and parts is unclear for me? French engine costs more than all XF17.

boys i only wanted to point out that the information you had about pakistan was either wrong or outdated.

I would luv to sit here and discuss who has the best pilots, who has the best planes or who has the best nukes. Honestly would love to, but seriously I got a life to get on with .

MCL its a shame you dont know who I am or what I do otherwise I would have love to sit down and told you the truth about Qadeer Khan. In short I know the guy. How I know him? Sorry cant disclose this information ONLINE, especially when you got big brother listening . Like I said I know the guy, as I said before he is a good man, he was given a task and he achieved it. He didnt sell any nuclear or atom bombs or any nuclear bomb technology to anyone. The guy was a scientist not a businessman. He was a patrotic guy not a businessman. For your information any weapons or nuclear development in Pakistan are under the suprevision of some Generals. These guys also suprevise the sales of any arms Pakistan makes. Pakistan NUKE technology werent sold by AQK but by some generals who wanted to make some quick dollars. When the americans found out, they put pressure on Musharif and he found a perfect scapegoat in AQK. The media doesnt tell the truth all the time.

RC yes the only thing the JF17 has russian is the engine. Sorry to dissappoint you but they found out that the russian engines were rubbish and now pakistan have ordered some SAAB engines from Swedens. shows alot about russian technology . I didnt say that JF17 was good or bad, I just wanted to show to you that Pakistan and China can develop such planes. China certainly does have the technology but they lack in people to make the full use of them. Thats where Pakistan comes in. Pakistan is able to generate people like Qadeer Khan who are able to make full use of chinese technology.

Why on earth would I believe that Pakistan would train forces from the MIddle East including KSA? Its maybe because I have seen them thats why duh lol or maybe

MCL you underestimate Pakistan.

MCL i dont want to compare sukhois with f16s. Like I said you had wrong or outdated info about Pakistans arsenal and I just politely corrected ya thats all mate.

lol India believes in HUMANITY? Thats good mate. I love that one. I guess thats why the Indians will not allow national self determination poll in Kashmir for the people of Kashmir to choose for once and for all what they want to do. I guess India believes in HUMANITY when its forces rape and murder kashmiri women. HMMMMM.

Who said Pakistan is exterminating terroists in Kashmir :S Where do you get this information from mate?? Dont tell me the indian secret services sitting in Kerala sucking on some mangoes on some beach

Not so simple, mate. China re-exported those engines without permission of Russia. Previously those engine was designated for Russian aircrafts, those was going to assemble on Chinese factories with using some Chinese parts according to agreement without permission to re-export neighter aircrafts nor Russian parts for them.

After sounded scandal Russia regected further supply of engines and Pakistan is forced to use the Chinese stock only.

SAAB engine costs more than all aircraft with Russian engine. It makes all those project very dubious.

India has similar Russian aircraft at half price of Chinese one with SAAB engine.

Once more It was China who developed the aircarft w/o engine FOR (not with) Pakistan. Pakistan was out of design.

You realise what you've done with that explanation? To defend one man you've basically indicted the entire defense system.
So basically the system is corrupt, dangerous and incapable, more powerful than the great AQ Khan and are still operating under impunity.
That won't please ur Pakistani patriots one bit.
Talk bout being penny wise pound foolish

Hey a couple of posts back was'nt it you who was lamenting bout ur inability to swing a deal your way at Emal? Apparently you were beaten to it by a coterie of Malbari's eating Mangoes. And now here you are, all powerful secret service agent, with contacts amongst the high and mighty.
Well dude I would suggest you use those contacts in ur business dealings rather than on a forum!

You know in retrospect who knows? I don't do dog fights and neither does the media report on them, so I can't be certain...You think you have a fine airforce and capable pilots? Great!
I mean I appreciate excellance wherever it is. And if you guys are building world class engines than brilliant.
So what next RB? The next Lockheed Martin will be a Paki company right?

Regarding Humanity? I'll give you that one. The violence in India in the name of religion is apalling.

You seriously lack cohesion don't you? I said you people are waging a war against terrorism...now how does it matter if ur doing it in Kashmir or Swat?

Honestly I'm done with my negative talk regarding Pakistan (you could follow suit if you wish too). Cuz it's not how I feel about Pakistanis. I mean we're just talking bout war wagering machines with no purpose but to kill. Lets focus on something positive!
Hmm so where do we go from here
We could talk bout technology, like did Pakistan discover water on the moon? Hmmm... ( Just Jokin )

Oh lets just talk bout snow leopards, cuz we both agree they are majestic creatures. Oh and ur women are drop dead gorgeous too

MCL, did you read an article about Khan Nukem in Sunday Times a week ago?

Investigation: Nuclear scandal - Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan
The Pakistani scientist who passed nuclear secrets to the world’s rogue states has been muzzled by his government.

JF17 are made in Pakistan so I dont see how you can say Pakistan was out of design!!

Assembled? Yes, but from Chinese and Russian parts.
Development was fully made in China. Pakistan was out of business.

Some MIG-29 has been also assembled in India. That didn't make MIG-29 Indian development. Right?

mcl take a chill pill mate. I am not saying Pakistan ARMY is the best nor does it have the best planes or the best pilots. I just corrected you with the old information you had.

Yes I agree with you its the generals in Pakistan Army who have literually f*Ked up the country. They have sold their souls to the Americans. Pakistani politicians are the same. Mind you I wouldnt be suprised if some indian politicians are in American pockets.

No MCL I dont have contacts, I just said I know Qadeer Khan thats all. Secondly I dont use contacts to do business nor do I give bribes under the table to make sure that the deal swings my way. Thats what indians do. Its an indian mafia out there. They will use all the dirty tricks to insure that they get the business . Dirty unprofessional buggers. Yes EMAL didnt buy from me, so what its EMAL who looses out not me mate. There are plenty more EMALS coming up in the region . Emal will eventually find out themselves how they were ripped off so some maloo could earn lil bobs under the table.

I will agree that Pakistanis are killing machines. Thats why the americans used them to kick the soviets out of Afghanistan and thats why Pakistan army is kicking talibans ass when USA thinks is best to car bomb and use UAVS on the taliban. HMMMM

no mate Pakistan didnt discover anything. The only thing they were capable of producing in a short time was a nuke. And they did this without anyones help. Do you know the processes of making a nuclear bomb? do some research and you will find out how long it usually takes and do some research and see how quickly the pakis did it. is it good? i seriously dont know but why dont u ask the indians

MCL you are taking your words back now. You know you said the pakis are exterminating terroists in KASHMIR. MATE you know you said that dont make me post your comment alrite. KASHMIR AND SWAT are completely different places. There is no military actions in Kashmir meaning there are no terroists in that area. It is in SWAT which touches the Afghanistan border. I guess you werent good in geography. Swat is northern West pakistan and Kashmir is norther east pakistan lol

yeh snow cats are majestic, shame they arent in India but i guess your life is not over since you have the monkey, the cow and the snake .

Honestly speaking how lame can you get? This topic was started by yourself and it was about nukes etc etc and here you are discussing about paki women? It seems like i hit a nerve take it easy mate, I dont want to sit here and waste my time with you comparing the two countries, its forces, nukes or even its women you guys were commentiing and had either old or false information and I corrected ya thats all.

RC wanted to know about the close relationship between china and pakistan and I showed him the link.

You wanted to know which country in the world would want to use Pakistans airfoce services and I showed you the link.

in my opinion its a shame that Pakistan and India are being used by USA to do its dirty jobs. If Pakistan and India put their differences a side they can become super power overnight.

got a link to prove that they are using chinese or russian parts?

rc full history of jf17 here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JF-17_Thunder

there is no mention of RUSSIAN parts anywhere, in fact it does mention that the Russian Radar used in the protype would brake down thus they decided to use chinese radar in the final production of the planes. Also have a look in the upgrades which mentions how the plane can be upgraded with French, Italian or even British Parts.

The aircraft was designed by Chengdu Aircraft Design Institute (611 Institute).

It was doungradable cheap version for Pakistan only. China has no intension to produce this aircraft for own air force but emphasize on more advanced J-10 4+ generation project.

Russia supplied its Klimov RD-93 turbofan jet engine for the aircraft.

China had reportedly even bought 100 Klimov RD-93 engines from Russia for installing on JF-17s, with an option to contract for another 400 engines.

In January 2007, however, Forecast International reported that Russia had refused permission for the transfer of its RD-93 engines, derived from the RD-33 that equips the MiG-29.
