I have seen the video of the JF17 escorting the Chinese President.

At your caption I haven't seen pictures of PK officials at the official launching of jf17s.

The JF-17 is a joint project between the Chinese and Pakistanis, but definitely not on the technical side.

Pakistan only assembles the FC-1 in Pakistan.

Troop101:
Look familier

That's Henry240!


I wonder why he has gone on a hiatus? Hope he comes back posting this New Year.

Happy New Year in advance everybody.

Henry240:
Watch the video and stop talking nonsense you fool!

I have no time for niceties, your display of internet stupidity or any form of tomfoolery.

It was clearly stated that it can withstand AA rounds, what caliber is an AA round?

Henry, No Chill!

tdayof:
Absolutely. Nigerian army ordered for 9 already which was confirmed by proforce.

Do you have any photos of the vehicle alone?

Oga Henry come and see your vehicle oh!

tdayof:
HERE COMES PROFORCE ARA

This is absolutely beautiful!

kikuyu1:

You over-estimate your sense of worth in this forum.

Please if you want to delete your account, please go ahead and do that.

Media outlets all over the world put photos of soldiers that died in combat in the news to honor them.
What's your idea? That a hero died for his country but we shouldn't know his face or name? Is that how you appreciate their effort and sacrifice?
Now the picture i saw was not of his corpse, but while he was alive, so what's' wrong with that?
Do you have any idea how many pictures of US soldiers media outlets like CNN showed daily during the thick of the Iraq war? If that's okay, why is this wrong?
Instead of pretending these soldiers aren't dead, we need to know they are, that shouldn't be a secret, it allows the general population to appreciate them more and honor them, not less.

I don't deny that Sir.
However, before those announcements are made, the families of the dead soldiers are pre-informed and permission to post is given.
I only think it is fair to respect the privacy of the families of these dead soldiers. It is the human thing to do.
Bidexiii, sharing that picture is simply not proper.

jakeporeshenko:
Dude shut the fucck up you aren’t in a position to fault bidexiii.
[b]This is you insulting someone’s mother just a few days ago, [/b]somebody you don’t know and have never met, because internet, because anonymous, you can do what ever the fuucck you want ? Right ??

Right ?

I don't deny that.

However as you can see from that post, he insulted me first?

Or am i wrong to defend myself?

Right ?

Again, that's not the issue here.

I am asked a straight forward question, is it right to post the pictures of a dead Nigerian soldier online?

Xbee007:
And I noticed how Bide has been ignoring him. But this need to stop. The other day he was insulting someone's mother. Africaken no do reach that level before his account was deleted.

Tackle the issue. Don't run away like a coward.

Is it proper to post the pictures of a dead Nigerian soldier?

jakeporeshenko:
The guy has been blasting bidexiii for days now.

Xbee007:
Guy you be sadist! Nothing good ever come out of that your stupif mouth. I have just seen most of your comments on NL, nothing positive so far.

Is it okay to post the pictures of a dead Nigerian soldier in an anonymous forum?

Is it because an individual wants likes, does he have the express permission of the soldiers family members to post that picture in this forum?

nemesis2u:
if u want u
and Americans r 100 maybe 1000 times much better than that

Thank you Sir.

nemesis2u:
unfortunately yes

do u know CIA has SIGINT station inside china to snoop on russia

every submarine cable around the world is tapped , they have a specialized submarine for that

That's crazy. US capacity to do serious damage is really under-estimated.

Isn't SIGNIT an area the Russians are also very good at?

cutievik:
yes bro, I can bet even ur presidents phone calls are bugged .... Those guys are Bastards

I guess we can all call it a day and go home.

nemesis2u:
CIA can compromise almost every bodies comms without much trouble , so ur fears r unfounded with respect to tucano only risk i see is sanctions

they have a entire division with futuristic tech for conducting off the air ELINT , COMINT , SIGINT , ESM activities without anybody being wiser.

one example is their ELINT satellites in LEO orbits

You are saying in essence is, the rest of the world is bleeped and at the mercy of the CIA as regards Intel?

rka2:
It includes hangers, aviation equipment/infrastructure, maintenance apart from training and ammunition, which would include precision guided ammo.

This is hat comes with operating a 4th the generation aircraft. Even in the West, upgrades are being done to aviation infracture at no small cost to introduce 5th generation combat aircraft.

I wonder why this is so difficult to understand.

bidexiii:
COIN

It clearly says RIP in one of the screenshots you are posting, so why did you still go ahead to post that picture?

Are you that desperate to post pictures that you loose all sense of reasoning?

Do you know what respecting the dead is at all?

jln115:
Wow I'm glad we don't have the same mind set down here.....when our government waste money the media rips them apart.

This post is more of a comic relief than anything else.

jakeporeshenko:
I read your post, did you pull those figures out of an operating manual you so happen to possess at your home?
Let’s not make this unnecessarily long, the deal might not get approval anyways.

It would get approved for sure.

jln115:
You mean how you choose to waste it!!

Actually, yes!

How we choose to waste it, is none of your business.

jln115:
Ours did it was part of Saab's maintenance contract....I have posted the details with regards to the contract on this thread multiple times.

It is our money, how we choose to spend it is completely our problem.

jln115:
Dude we paid just a ball hair under R60 mil a pop for our Gripen, the price also included training,weapons and Saab's maintenance contract which includes not just regular spares and maintenance but also all upgrades when they are made available!!

R600 mil for 12 single engine prop aircraft is ridiculous!!

It is a very good deal. We are talking life cycle cost including infrastructure.

jln115:
Yes and?? Our Gripen cost R60 mil a unit, which included training, weapons, maintenance and all future upgrades as they come available!

No, it's not.

The cost of your Gripens do not include upgrades.

jln115:
$600 mil for 12 Tucanos...... absolutely ridiculous!!!

For $600 mil you can get:
10-12 Gripen C

14-18 SU30mkm

20-25 JF-17

Let that sink in!!

"The department notified the US Congress, which has 30 days to approve the deal, of the $593 million foreign military sale on 2 August. The package includes the aircraft, weapons, training, spare parts and facilities to support the programme, according to a 3 August announced by the Defense Security Cooperation Agency."

rka2:
I think it meets our [b]immediate needs, although I fear future sanctions. [/b]The Americans are a funny lot.

That's my biggest fear. However with the Alpha jets, we kept them flying despite European sanctions in the early 90s, don't you think we can do same with these?

Thank you.

What is your opinion of this deal, do you like it?

gboye1999:
Great News...
Hopefully there's much more to the deal though considering the cost. That is relative to the afghans purchase.

http://www.military.com/daily-news/2016/04/15/a29-super-tucanos-see-first-action-afghanistan.html

Why is this our contract quite high? I can't quite figure it out.
