Official of the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) taking keen interest in the Chinese Wing Loong Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV). Pakistan Air force has been lobbying for armed drone for last few years but Americans Americns have denied their request to supply them with MQ-1 Predators.


Chinese Wing Loong Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV) is very similar to the American Predator drone which is routinely  used by the CIA to target militant groups in Pakistan and Afghanistan.


Wing Loong carries AKD-10, YZ-200 air-to-surface missiles and LS-6 Satellite Aided Inertially Guided Bomb with the nose mounted electro-optical seekers to destroy targets at ground.

  1. In 1933, British colonial government of India established the subcontinent’s first Air Force station near Drigh Road, now called PAF Base Faisal. In 1934, this element of the Royal Indian Air Force (RIAF) was extended to the North for operations in the North West Frontier Province. Later the RIAF contributed to the defeat of the Japanese invasion during World War II. Defense Industry Analysis

  3. Who cares if it's cut and paste! It will be cheap, reliable and available in good numbers without strings attached to it. Fact is, Pakistan will pay half to a third of what India spends on its defense. That must hurt!
