KARACHI: The Pakistan Navyon Saturday successfully test-fired an anti-ship missile from a helicopter in the northern Arabian Sea, a navyspokesperson said.

The anti-ship missile fired from the Sea King helicopter into the open sea successfully hit its target, Dawn newspaper quoted the spokesperson as saying.

Chief of the Naval Staff Admiral Muhammad Zakaullah witnessed the missile firing demonstration.

 

Earlier in March, the navy had conducted a successful test of a land-based, anti-ship missile. The trial was conducted from the coastal region and the missile secured a hit on a target placed at sea, the report said.

The Pakistan Navy in May received the seven Westland Sea King multi-role helicopters it had ordered from the United Kingdom UK in 2016, it said.

The Pakistan Army on Friday received six new Cessna aircraft, two Cessna 208 Caravan and four Cessna T-206H from the United States, said a statement released by the US Office of Defense Representative.

In April 2016, the US Department of Defence had announced it had issued a $14.9 million, fixed-price contract to Cessna Aircraft Company for making two Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX aircraft and four Cessna T-206H Stationair aircraft for Pakistan. The contract included sustainment support and associated training.
The aircraft will be configured for medical evacuation.
The statement from the Office of Defense Representative added that the Caravan and the Stationair aircraft will strengthen Pakistan Army's air mobility by enhancing its capability to conduct medical evacuations as well as provide limited troop and equipment transport.

The Pakistan Army Aviation Corps in the statement thanked America for the "generous contribution".
"American security assistance continues to build the counter-terrorism capabilities of Pakistan's security forces."
"The US and Pakistan are stronger when we work together to combat terrorism," the statement added.
Each aircraft comes with a 24-month sustainment package, including spares, tooling, and support equipment.
The Grand Caravan EX, first shown at the Paris Airshow in 2015, is equipped with a surveillance console, medical stretcher, lightweight seats and stowable utility seat.
It accommodates up to 14 people and a load of 1,593kg.
The T206H Stationair is a smaller aircraft for six people and can take a load of 581kg.

lol hehe... long term loan from beijing, for 5 bil for the diesel subs.

 

mi 35 hehe its a hele... budget for 5th gen ..already ur defence budget is 6% ?( the real budget not the madeup one for international audience) of gdp this year, lol it will then become 30%. How will you fill the 10% shortfall from US aid, more soft loans from China.

 

imagine 9 bill budget, or even 10 bil( original figure is 8.8 bil). 6 bil goes to personnel, out of 4 bil, 1 for missile program, 600 mil for navy modernization, then you have jf17, aewc for paf, alkhalid for PA. where will you bring the 3 bil for fifth gen ? more long term loan from china or junkfighter 18 ?

 

What will your people do ? what will they eat maan..

first of all budy, why do you care about our secret or official defence budget ? 

 

secondly, can someone buy Helis from pakoras ? NO , you also need Money/dollars for it. 

as you know , military acquisitions are not some vegetables/fruits that you can go outside and buy from market.

once the deal gt done thn every stuff cmes in batches each year or according to the deal.

and many things are already arrived, i didnt mention on this thread becoz its not officially announced from ISPR/Govt/Army yet.

In pakistan, our military acquisition process is much faster and simpler thn yours.

 

we dont take a decade plus to choose an aircraft (hell, even PAF will make 5th Gen aircraft in a decade) , and we dont take 30+ years to make some light aircraft, becoz we dont rely on babus in the govt.

 

 

thirdly and lastly, will you plz give me the source of the figures of our secret budget in the bold ?

its in public domain dude, also your soft loans from china, you will be in a debt spiral along with your cpec debt spiral. haha, some one is angry. Tejas is 4.5 gen from scratch and in ~20 years dev time you can call it what ever you want but thats what it takes to get a platform created, unlike a 3.5 full metal frame with dated tec that china made for you from reverse engineered f-7 . In India there i a habit, where someone lays a foundation stone and then the budget gets allocated for it 10 years later, does not mean  foundation stone was development towards tejas lol.

what pak will be forced by reality is the below:

 

forget about more land grabbing, try keeping what you have intact.

there is a glass ceiling for middling nations in terms of technology availability in defence and there is also no great need for such nations, meaning pak would have to deescalate or be china's province eventually.

How cute, It is 19 years from proj definition to first limited series productiin flight. Does not matter what paid lobby writes they have their agendas to sell fighters to IA. But even a 40 year cycle means nothing right abt now India has a platform and has money to buy few other platforms. Pak hardly has budget to produce jf17s 5th gen for pak is a pipe dream. For india it will be reality with amca.

The Kosava-1 is a Serbian long-range multipurpose missile system based on the improved version of Oganj rocket. The Kosava-1 missile system was developed primarily for missions against tanks, armored vehicles, fortifications, command posts, low-flying helicopters, coastal ships, industrial facilities and bridges at the 50 km distance.

The launcher with Kosava missiles can be mounted on a 6×6 light armoured vehicle that carried four missile canisters arranged that can be elevated and turned away from the unprotected cab.
