We should never had given America our airspace to attack a soverign nation in the first place.<BR/><BR/>Secondly, Marginalize Pakistan. Haa.. you are funny. using our Airbases and wish for a love affair with India. Thats a new one.<BR/><BR/>Pakistan has helped America enough, now its time to "marginalize" the role of uncle sam and keep good relations with other more responsible nations of the world.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-500700533018811918.post-68488184459524563592007-06-05T02:34:00.000-04:002007-06-05T02:34:00.000-04:00Pakistani extremists have been blowing things up a...Pakistani extremists have been blowing things up and killing innocents before the USA went into Afghanistan.

Or was it that they turned a blind eye?<BR/><BR/>Faruq, the rest of the article is in the works.

You ha them corneered in Tora bora, you failed to stop them crossing into Pakistan at first place.<BR/><BR/>You insult the death of our soldiers, the deaths of innocent Pakistani civilians are die because of suicide bombers...these bombers tell us that kill us because of our support to you...<BR/><BR/>Mr. SoC is a misguided gentlemen, When terrorists and USA Government themselve say Pakistani is activly supporting America, SoC can say all the shit he wants, facts will remain facts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-500700533018811918.post-28745188360653789082007-05-19T13:02:00.000-04:002007-05-19T13:02:00.000-04:00Biased????I think you have something against pakis...Biased????<BR/>I think you have something against pakistan aparently! lol<BR/><BR/>the articles about fc-1 etc etc<BR/>where does selling nuclear come into play? where does "we picked the wrong ally in war" come into play?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-500700533018811918.post-59606223681694913702007-05-18T19:06:00.000-04:002007-05-18T19:06:00.000-04:00SOC,Both countries are moving towards refuelers an...SOC,<BR/>Both countries are moving towards refuelers and AWE&C type assets. Both countries have clearly mentioned to move on to AESA type radar systems. A major part of your article seems to rely on outdated information. I don't blame you if you don't follow th developments and what their officials say but then i don't see how you can get the time to sit down and write an article like that.<BR/>You have even contradicted yourself on a couple f things. For example you mentioned FC-1's lack of range as one of the reason then you go and say range might not be an issue for FC-1 in Indo/Pak scenario.<BR/>Regarding your political commentary on Pakistan. I have more than once tried to answer you on KeyMags but you neither engage on the points you make nor you are willing to reconsider your assertions as you come back with the same again.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00558072976630769035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-500700533018811918.post-58918545557929777442007-05-14T18:49:00.000-04:002007-05-14T18:49:00.000-04:00Whoops, sorry about that, this one got bumped off ...Whoops, sorry about that, this one got bumped off of the front page and I just now thought to check some of the older postings for new comments.

If range is not an issue, given theatre limitations and IFR, then the argument seems to become even less relevant. It would be a lot more interesting if you qualaified your statement by saying say, for instance that the SD-10 would not be effective or that the radar on the FC-1 would not be able to lock-on to IAF aircraft.<BR/><BR/>For me, to simplify, I'd think an SD-10 launched from an FC-1 is as likely to shoot down a counterpart as an SD-10 shot from a J-10, more or less.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
