Meanwhile, "India has Europe-made Meteor AAM, which is better than China-made PL-15" is repeatly emphasized in every TWZ's article. What's the point? Isn't it more embarrassing?

I don't want to get off topic more than necessary here, but it'll probably benefit many of you to understand something about TWZ.com (maybe this post should be moved elsewhere?).

Anyhow, the thing about TWZ.com is that they receive funding from defense contractors like General Atomics, and this is something they have

.

Now, I don't know if TWZ.com have or had any sort of business relationship with MBDA, the manufacturer of the Meteor AAM.

However, there's always a possibility that MBDA will one day decide to pay TWZ.com to write something "nice" about their missiles. OTOH, sponsorship from AVIC or CASIC may invite a FBI investigation.

TWZ.com will naturally favor Western weapons so long as Western arms makers are sponsoring them to reach Western audiences.

I think overmatch is necessary in this day and age. I understand that Pakistan has gone through significant financial hurdles as well past few years (along with instable politics), but I was hoping fifth generation aircraft would be a priority. At least it will be delivered by end of 2026.

There's no way they'll be delivered that soon. China has zero operational J-35. It's not even confirmed in LRIP yet. They're not gonna build out Pakistan's order before they get them in some number to the PLAAF/PLAN. We face threats a lot more serious than the IAF! Then it takes time to train and form combat doctrine with them as well. After they go into true mass production, an export variant is going to be created, and that is where Pakistan's order will start to be filled. Worry not, in the mean time, it appears those extra 36 J-10CE will hold you down plenty well if it's India you face.

Hope IAF will be happy with their new Rafale shipments coming in half a decade ;)

That order... might have some problems.

It's sad that Guancha team can't get that same hook up with AVIC or CASIC and have to sell models and books instead because PAF does it for free.

Meanwhile at Guancha:

2022:
Xi Yazhou "J-10CE is going to be a game changer, Rafale killer, Su-30 slayer etc etc"
Shilao "You're on that PAF copium again, watch what you say on air."

2025:
Shilao "Well shit, turns out Xi Yazhou had great foresight."

Looks like they are trying to reenact 2019: shoot own chopper, ACM retires mid-conflict, lose aircraft to PAF. Now just need a IAF pilot captured.

Pak Army gives statement: 12 harop drones intercepted, 1 got through and inflicted partial damage to a military installation in Lahore, 4 soldiers injured, elsewhere 1 civilian injured and 1 killed; Israel is named.

12 harops .. $120m for one partial hit? After suffering near $1b in aircraft losses the previous night. This is turning out to be quite an expensive and ineffective attack.


There's another video of it after firing there is smoke around it from the rounds. Some Indian cut up the video and said the smoke is from a drone strike.

Exactly! when was it destroyed. The indian on X claims the drone destroyed this AA artillery piece. The smoke is from firing AA shells. It's clear from the footage. These jai hinds are lying out of their arses.

Took a quick look: TWZ.com has published sponsored content

Perhaps the "bad press" that the IAF may have just unintentionally generated for Dassault and MBDA will create an opportunity for TWZ.com to increase sponsorship from Europe!
