The PAK FA is a single-seat, twin-engine jet fighter, and the first operational aircraft in Russian service to use stealth technology.



It was designed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau. The aircraft will be used to achieve air superiority and assist in ground attacks.

Besides its ability to fly at speeds well above Mach 2, the T-50 boasts other, even more important, features such as invisibility to radar and powerful weapons which will be unveiled later.

PAK FA or T-50 has unique features making it the best in its class among other similar aircrafts in the world.
So far Russia has five such aircrafts. The aircraft meets all the requirements of the fifth generation fighter. It is undistinguished, has a supersonic cruise speed, it is able to maneuver with large congestion, equipped with advanced electronics and is multifunctional.

It’s capable of performing all known aerobatic maneuvers, a feature that sets it apart from any foreign competitors.
This aircraft is able to “stop” in midflight bringing down speed to zero performing a free fall and then re-gaining altitude and speed.

The Deputy Head of Flight Operations Company "Sukhoi", honored test pilot, Sergey Bogdan, has tested more than fifty different types of combat aircrafts. According to him the T-50 has a much higher controllability than other machines.

“It has a high sustainability. In the future, it will carry out fundamentally new aerobatics,” said Bogdan.

“Engine nozzle deflects in such a way that the plane stabilizes its position. Dangerous unfolding moments do not arise, making it pretty amazing,” says test.

A special suit for pilots who will fly the newest Sukhoi PAK FA (also known as T-50) jet fighter has been developed by Russian engineers and scientists. The suit was specially designed to make the pilot feel comfortable during supersonic-speed flights. It is equipped with an anti-G system which features a hose for delivering air to the pilot.

The gear also features pockets for flight documents. In the abdominal area there is a metal plate which presses against the pilot’s body to maintain blood flow to the head.

The costume was developed and is being currently tested by Zvezda R&D center in the city of Tomilino, near Moscow.

Egypt, other countries interested in French Mistral warships - source
singapore also interested, is the egypt that rich? 1st buy the FREMM frigate, then Rafale and now possible Mistral?

you forgot Egypt also bough 4 unit 2500 tons Gowind frigate. cost euro 1 billion.

unker sam every year give them $ so they won't collapse.

the sings are building their own heli-carrier, the JMMV (joint multi-mission vessel). basically enlarged Endurance class w/ flat top. and with their acquisition of f-35b...

Despite a lot of difference, Singapore still share many cultural similarities with Malaysia, due to shared background. Compared to that Indonesia do seem like total strangers to us. Singapore really has way too much to lose if any conflict goes on with Malaysia, same goes with Malaysia.

Also because of the 1971 FPDA treaty, Singapore and Malaysia actually has a practical mutual defense pact, so Singapore-Malaysia military relationship are actually pretty tight no matter what some people like to think.

Malaysia Langgar Batas Wilayah TNI AU Siapkan 4 Sukho

TARAKAN - Pelanggaran yang kian sering dilakukan negara tetangga, Malaysia membuat TNI Angkatan Udara mulai menyikapi secara khusus.

TNI Angkatan Udara mendatangkan satu flight pesawat tempur Sukhoi, terdiri dari empat unit pesawat ke Tarakan, Kalimantan Utara, untuk menjaga perbatasan dari gangguan negara asing.

Komandan Pangkalan TNI Angkatan Udara (Lanud) Tarakan, Letkol Pnb Tiopan Hutapea mengatakan Operasi yang dilakukan pesawat Sukhoi tersebut sejatinya adalah jawaban dari pelanggaran yang kerap dilakukan negara Malaysia terhadap kedaulatan NKRI.

“Sebelum nantinya dalam waktu jangka panjangnya otomatis Tarakan ini akan ditingkatkan kemampuan dan daya gempurnya,” kata Tiopan, seperti dikutip dari Radar Tarakan (Grup translampung.com), Senin (10/8).

Untuk menjadikan atau menaikkan status Lanud Tarakan tak semudah yang dilakukan. Karena, harus banyak yang perlu ditambahkan dan diperhatikan. Kedatangan Sukhoi kali ini juga sangkut pautnya dengan peningkatan status Lanud Tarakan.

“Sementara belum ada pelanggaran udara yang terjadi selama satu bulan terakhir. Kami akan memantau terus melalui Satrad 225 selama 24 jam terus menerus dimonitor,” jelas Tiopan.

Dari pantauan radar Satrad 225 Tarakan, ada beberapa objek asing yang tertangkap berada di dekat wilayah perbatasan, walaupun dinyatakan tidak ada pelanggaran dalam sebulan terakhir.

“Kami bisa lihat urgensinya, apakah dia dari satu titik ke titik yang lain tetapi meliper ke perbatasan, itu mau ngapain" Itukan istilah kami mengintip,” jelas Tiopan.

Lebih jelas, pelanggaran yang terjadi di Sebatik oleh helikopter Malaysia sebuah helikopter sipil. Namun, dalam pelanggaran udara, tidak ada mengenal pesawat militer atau pesawat sipil, karena masalah kedaulatan negara.

“Kedaulatan negara harus ditangani kalau provokatornya adalah pesawat udara harus ditahan atau dihadang dengan pesawat udara,” tuntas Tiopan. (win/jpnn/rm1/tnn)

MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine Navy on Monday morning, August 10, christened two brand new choppers and two hand-me-down supply ships from Australia.

Bottles of champagne were poured onto the nose of the choppers while bottles of wine were smashed for the good luck and safe travel of the vessels.

The new choppers boost the Philippine Navy's maritime surveillance capability while the two Landing Craft Heavy (LCH) vessels allow easier transport of troops and cargo from one operational area to another.

The two Agusta Westland 109 naval choppers are armed with caliber 50 machine gun and 2.75-inch rockets. It will improve the navy's maritime air surveillance and close air support for ground troops because of its maritime surveillance capability, amphibious air support operations, weather search radar and forward looking infrared systems.

Unarmed versions of the choppers are already working in tandem with the country's two most capable warships – Barkong Republika ng Pilipinas (BRP) Gregorio Del Pilar and BRP Ramon Alcaraz – in patrolling the West Philippine Sea (South China Sea).



SUPPLY SHIP. The two supply ships, gifts from Australia, are christened on Monday, August 10

Show of military might as Army, Navy, Air Force and Police Force display vehicles and equipment at NDP 2015



SINGAPORE - It was a show of military might at the National Day Parade as the Army, Navy, Air Force and Police Force displayed their vehicles and equipment in a 15-minute performance.

A convoy of 179 vehicles rumbled past the Padang, making the line-up of this year's Mobile Column, which returns to the show after five years, the most diverse.

Twenty-six vehicles made their debut, including a combat ambulance, an armoured engineer vehicle used mainly for clearing mines or demolishing wire obstacles, and a latest version of a battle tank.

A 22m-long specialised marine craft, which is used for the defence of bases, was also unveiled for the first time.

To pay tribute to the pioneers, a retired colonel Goh Lye Choon, 74, who took part in the first mobile column in 1969, joined others to lead the convoy. He rode alongside the Mobile Column Commander Lieutenant-Colonel Lim Kah Kheng in a Leopard 2SG Main Battle Tank.

A section of the 2km-long convoy also passed through the Marina Bay area.

Even those who did not have tickets to the Padang were not left out of the fun when vehicles from the Singapore Civil Defence Force doused the crowd with water from their hoses as they drove by.

Yemen loyalist forces gain more ground in Southern Yemen, Gulf states step up direct ground support


UAE Leclerc MBTs advance northwards from Aden. Observers have counted at least 9 Leclerc MBTs are in use by UAE ground forces in the fighting

Yemeni Popular Resistance forces on Sunday captured from Houthi rebels multiple cities in the country's central and southern provinces, including the capital of the Abyan province, the city of Zinjibar, which fell to the pro-government forces after days of fighting.

The fighters seized four districts in the central province of Ibb on Monday, residents and local officials said, bringing the armed resistance closer to the group's stronghold in the capital Sanaa.

The rapid progress of the Popular Resistance and the national army pushed Houthi and former President Ali Abdallah Saleh’s militias to retreat in several provinces. Due to this, the Houthis declared a state of emergency in the capital city Sanaa.

Senior Yemeni military commander Abdullah Subaihi said last week he expected government forces to retake Sanaa within two weeks.

The pro-government commander said: "Popular Resistance forces and the national army, backed by tanks supplied by the Saudi-led Arab coalition, managed in the early hours of Sunday to seize control of the 15th military brigade and all government buildings" in Sanaa.

In a related news, a Saudi fighter plane accidentally dropped bombs at a loyalist position near Zinjibar, killing 20 loyalist militias and injuring dozens more.

Frigates for Algeria under construction in Shanghai



A photo posted on the internet indicates that China is constructing two C28A class corvettes based on the F-22P Zulfiquar-class frigate for Algeria at Hudong-Zhonghua shipyard in Shanghai, according to the Sina Military Network based in Beijing.

China agreed to provide three C28A corvettes to Algeria under a contract signed in March 2012. Each of the ships is equipped with a 76 mm NG-16-1 gun, an eight-cell FM90 launcher for HQ-7 short-range air defense missiles, two quad launchers of C-802A anti-ship missiles, and two seven-barrel 30 mm Type 730 close-in weapons systems. The hull numbers of the two warships are 921 and 922. One of the vessels has already been fitted with the HQ-7 missile system.

The first of the three corvettes, with 920 as its hull number, was turned over to Algeria two months ago. China began the construction of the three warships, designed based on the four F-22P Zulfiquar-class frigates China produced earlier for Pakistan, in 2013. Beijing and Algiers are currently discussing plans to construct three additional C28A corvettes in Algeria.

As they are an upgraded version of the F-22P, Algeria's C28A corvettes are more advanced and powerful than the ships built for Pakistan. Sina Military Network said Algeria's C28As look more like the PLA Navy's Type 054A guided-missile frigate. Each of the ships can also carry a Westland Super-Lynx Mk140 helicopter.
