Pakistan Selects German Submarines


Pakistan to buy German subs, ignore French



KARACHI: In a departure from the past practice of acquiring submarines from France, Pakistan will buy three German Type 214 submarines.

Walter Freitag, the chief executive officer of the HDW, the largest conventional submarine maker in the world, told The News on Tuesday in an exclusive interview at the IDEAS 2008 here that his company had finalised technical specifications with the navy to build three Type 214 submarines in Pakistan.

The commercial contract has been finalised up to 95 per cent, he said, hoping the final contract in this regard will be signed soon. This is the first time that a clear picture of the billion-dollar deal that the Pakistan Navy is expected to sign in coming months has emerged. Earlier, during mid-90s, the navy had selected three French Agosta 90-B submarines, which were in addition to the two acquired earlier. The deal had generated a lot of controversy at that time.

This time French firm Armaris had offered to supply Pakistan three updated single-hulled, diesel-electric submarines all-French version of the Franco-Spanish Scorpene boat equipped with air-independent propulsion, a deal totalling about $1.2 billion.

However, Walter Freitag said he did not see that kind of controversy enveloping this project perceived during the 90s. The Pakistan Navy understands submarines and ours are the best, he said, rejecting claims of competitors that the Greek Navy had rejected Type 214.

In the Hellenic Navys case, a neutral surveyor was appointed, who decided that the submarine was technically OK and ready for commissioning, he said. The HDW CEO said the Type 214 was technologically more advanced than those of competitors. We use higher grade steel material, which allows greater diving depth, he said. Also, we have fuel cell AIPs and can integrate Harpoons with the Type 214.

The first submarine would be delivered to the Pakistan Navy in 64 months after signing of the contract while the rest would be completed successively in 12 months. Walter Freitag stated that they would be using facilities at the Karachi Shipyard for building Type 214 and minimal upgrade would be required. He added that the Type 214 was 100 per cent German and there was no chance of embargo on it in any case.

Meanwhile, authoritative sources told The News that the decision to acquire Type 214 over the French submarine was made not only because the submarine was more advanced than the French Marlin, but also because many countries had deployed the Type 214 submarines, so there would be no issue of spares.

They said Turkey would be acquiring six Type 214s, South Korea had ordered six more in addition to three ordered earlier, Portugal had bought two, besides several bought by the German Navy. As such, supportability for the Type 214 for the next 30-35 years would not be a major concern.

Washington suspend une partie de son aide militaire au Pakistan

Le bras droit du président Barack Obama, William Daley, invoque la détérioration des relations entre les deux pays depuis l'élimination du chef d'Al-Qaeda, Oussama Ben Laden.

Les Etats-Unis ont suspendu une partie de leur aide militaire au Pakistan, a annoncé dimanche le secrétaire général de la Maison Blanche, William Daley, confirmant une information du New York Times.

Islamabad «a pris des mesures qui nous ont amené à suspendre certaines aides que nous donnons à l'armée» pakistanaise, explique Daley, interrogé par la chaîne de télévision américaine ABC.

Le bras droit du président Barack Obama a évoqué la détérioration des relations entre les deux pays depuis l'élimination du chef d'Al-Qaeda, Oussama Ben Laden, lors d'un raid d'un commando américain au Pakistan le 2 mai. Islamabad, estimant que ce raid constituait une violation de sa souveraineté territoriale, avait réagi en ordonnant le départ de conseillers militaires américains.

Citant de hauts responsables militaires américains qui ont requis l'anonymat, le New York Times a chiffré, samedi soir, le montant total des suspensions et des annulations autour de 800 millions de dollars, soit plus d'un tiers de l'aide militaire annuelle de Washington à son allié. «Tant que nous ne serons pas sortis de ces difficultés, nous suspendrons une partie de l'argent que les contribuables américains se sont engagés à verser», a averti Daley.

800M$ 1/3 de l'aide sa nous donne 2.4MM$ au totale ! ils sont gâté ces paki

ben oui,la prostituion politique a outrance j´appel ca.
ils faisaient miroitter une "aide" par la gauche,pour la nullifier par la droite,mais comme chaque jeux,tout a une fin.

deja que les FMS et FMF ont eu une priorité pour eux,a cause de cette mascarade de "war on terrorism",je n´oublie pas les Orion upgradés,donnés gracieusement,et cramés sur la base sans avoir servis
sans parler des FMF pour les F16 M109 etc...

Et les 6 O.H.Perry qu'ils ont reçus !

Pakistan: l'armée peut se passer d'aide


11/07/2011 |

L'armée pakistanaise peut fonctionner sans aide financière extérieure, a déclaré aujourd'hui son porte-parole, en réponse à l'annonce américaine de suspendre une partie de son aide militaire au Pakistan. Dans un message, le porte-parole de l'armée, le général Athar Abbas, ajoute qu'Islamabad n'a pour l'heure reçu "aucune notification officielle ou communication" américaine sur le sujet.

Le secrétaire général de la Maison-Blanche, William Daley, a annoncé hier que Washington avait décidé de suspendre une partie de son importante aide militaire au Pakistan, son allié contre les groupes armés islamistes et al-Qaida avec lequel les relations se sont sévèrement dégradées. "Nous n'avons reçu aucune notification officielle ou communication sur le sujet", indique le général Athar Abbas. "Au-delà de cela, l'armée, aujourd'hui comme hier, a mené avec succès des offensives en utilisant ses propres ressources sans quelque soutien extérieur que ce soit".

La décision américaine porte sur environ 800 millions de dollars, soit plus d'un tiers des quelque 2,7 milliards de dollars que les Etats-Unis versent par an au Pakistan.
Une partie de cette somme sert à financer le déploiement de plus de 100.000 soldats pakistanais le long de la frontière avec l'Afghanistan, bastion des talibans alliés à al-Qaida.

Pakistan to Exercise Options for More F-16s
By USMAN ANSARI
Published: 15 Jul 2011 17:36

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan is in the final stages of exercising an option to buy 18 more F-16 Block 52+ fighters, which would double its fleet of the Fighting Falcon's advanced variant, said Haris Khan of the Pakistan Military Consortium think tank.

Deliveries of the 18 "Peace Drive I" planes, currently Pakistan's most capable aircraft, were completed in December under a 2006 contract. The contract, including the 18-plane option, was then valued at $3 billion.

A planned upgrade to F-16A/B Block 15 aircraft will bring them up to the Block 40 standard as well. They are currently being put through the Falcon STAR (Structural Augmentation Roadmap) program, and undergoing Mid-Life Update (MLU) at the hands of Turkish Aerospace Industries in Turkey.

In 2006, the value of 60 MLU kits was quoted as $1.3 billion. The upgrade was approved for 45 Block 15s, and now has been curtailed at 35 planes, Khan said.

The reason for this is uncertain.

Khan notes that U.S. Navy has refused to release 14 ex-Pakistani F-16s that were part of the "Peace Gate III/IV" order of 71 planes. These aircraft were embargoed before delivery under the Pressler Amendment in the 1990s and eventually found a home with the Navy's aggressor units.

The news of curtailment in the F-16 upgrade program comes a week after it was reported the upgraded aircraft will be equipped with the ITT Systems AN/ALQ-211 (v)9 Advanced Integrated Defensive Electronic Warfare Suite (AIDEWS) electronic warfare pod.

The $49,097,182 firm fixed price Foreign Military Sales contract will provide systems software and support equipment 18 pods, four pod shells, two antenna coupler sets, two lab test benches, and data.

There may also be new equipment for the Pakistan Navy.

Khan said there was no news as of yet on acquiring additional pair of P-3C Orion maritime patrol aircraft to replace those destroyed in the May 22 terrorist attack on PNS Mehran in Karachi.

However, there was a very strong possibility another Oliver Hazard Perry class frigate would be transferred to Pakistan when it was retired from USN service later this year.

Pour la modernisation effectué par la Turquie, certains composants sont d'origine américaine, donc oui.

Pakistan drone crashes near oil refinery: navy

KARACHI: A Pakistani navy drone crashed near an oil refinery after hitting a bird in the country’s largest city of Karachi on Tuesday, the navy said.
“A Pakistan Navy UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) crashed after a bird hit it.
It fell near an oil refinery and there was no (other) damage,” Commodore Irfan Ul Haq, spokesman Pakistan Navy told AFP in Islamabad.
Fellow navy spokesman Commander Salman Ali told AFP that there were no casualties and that the drone had been on a surveillance flight when a bird accidentally flew into the aircraft and it came down in the Karachi suburbs.
Pakistan is developing its own drone technology for surveillance and reconnaissance missions because the United States, which is running a bombing campaign with drones in the country’s northwest, refuses to give Pakistan the technology.
Two companies in Islamabad, Satuma and East West Infiniti, make drones for the Pakistani military. It is not known if the crashed drone belonged to either company.
It was the third aircraft crash in Karachi in eight months.
On November 28, seven Ukrainians and a Georgian were killed when their Ilyushin IL-76 cargo plane crashed seconds after taking off from Karachi for Khartoum. Four labourers on the ground were also killed.
It crashed into buildings under construction in the Dalmai neighbourhood, where the Pakistan Air Force and Navy have residential apartments and offices close to Jinnah International airport.
On November 5, a US-manufactured Beech 1900C also crashed after take off, killing all 21 people on board.
The aircraft was operated by local company JS Air and had been carrying staff from an Italian oil company to an oil field in Sindh.

Le Pakistan va acheter 6 sous-marins à la Chine

Le Pakistan va acheter 6 sous-marins de conception chinoise, équipés avec les technologies les plus récentes, à la Chine.

Selon certaines sources, le Pakistan a conclu mardi l’accord pour l’achat de 6 sous-marins de la classe Yuan-king pour renforcer ses capacités de défense nucléaire.

Les sous-marins sont actuellement testés dans les eaux chinois.

Les sources précisent que les sous-marins sont équipés du plus récent système de propulsion anaérobie qui leur permet de rester plus longtemps en plongée.

Les sous-marins ont la capacité d’emporter des armes nucléaires.

Analyse de la rédaction :
Il s’agit probablement de sous-marins classiques Type 041 (classe Yuan). Le suffixe -king pourrait indiquer qu’il s’agit de la version améliorée (variante A). La capacité de lancer des armes nucléaires ne semble pas avoir été mentionnée auparavant.

Il est surprenant, compte-tenu de ses propres besoins, que la Chine vende des sous-marins déjà construits, comme le laisse entendre cet article.

Pakistan Navy Gets First Unmanned Aircraft Squadron

[img][/img]

The Pakistan Navy has inducted the first squadron of unmanned aircraft systems into its fleet. Chief of Naval Staff, Admiral Noman Bashir was the chief guest in the induction ceremony for the new UQAB-11 squadron.

During the ceremony he said that unmanned aircraft would increase the operational capabilities of the Navy.

A Pakistan Navy press release said that the indigenously developed UAS are equipped with state of the art equipment and sensors and can successfully be employed in support of Maritime Interdiction Operation (MIO) in the coastal areas.


The Chief of the Naval Staff while addressing the audience, congratulated all those who were involved in the UQAB-II programme and expressed satisfaction on induction of UAS. He said that prevailing maritime environment poses multifarious challenges to navies across the globe. In addition to traditional roles, navies are now increasingly confronted with emerging challenge of deterring maritime terrorism. Owing to their small size, ease of operation and maintenance versatility in employment and low risk of loss, UAS today are regarded as force multipliers and are increasingly being used by combat forces worldwide.
