Are you sending Canadian Dollars to buy this particular system?

Or should we wait for the transaction of the F-15EX you proposed be complete, before we start taking you seriously?

I'm not surprised how you managed to achieve -32 in Rating.

What I do wonder is why the Mods haven't banned you - for good.

Your presence here is a relevant as a fart in a Spacecraft.

Its okay to window shop. Maybe you'd like to check out the F-35 Lightning for your next Topic...

Patriot Missile Success in Ukraine Has Shocked Even the Pentagon–Kyiv​

Ukraine's success with U.S.-made Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems in the war with Russia has shocked even the Pentagon, according to a military analyst.

Ivan Kirichevskiy, an expert at military media and consulting company Defense Express, weighed in on Kyiv's use of the advanced missile system in an interview with Ukraine's Radio NV. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had been requesting the crucial defense system for months before it finally arrived.

Washington agreed in October 2022 to send Kyiv the Patriot missile systems, which can target aircraft, cruise missiles and shorter-range ballistic missiles. Zelensky said they could help counter Russian strikes on its energy infrastructure and residential areas. Germany and the Netherlands also committed to sending Patriot systems to Ukraine.

Ukraine now has two of the air defense systems set up in the country.

"Today, our beautiful Ukrainian sky becomes more secure because Patriot air defense systems have arrived in Ukraine," Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov said in a statement on his social media channels on April 19.

"The United States thought for a long time, discussing whether to give us Patriots or not," said Kirichevskiy. "It turns out that our air defense forces with crash course training literally squeezed out of the Patriot a capability that the Pentagon did not think was possible."

The ground-based Patriot missile defense system is the most advanced surface-to-air missile Washington has provided Kyiv with since the war began. With a range of over 65 miles, it can detect, track and engage drones, cruise missiles and short-range or tactical ballistic missiles, according to the Missile Defense Advocacy Alliance.

Ukraine has used the sophisticated systems to counter waves of missile strikes from Russia. A Ukrainian air force commander said on Telegram on May 6 that Ukraine's military used the Patriot missile defense system to down a Russian Kh-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic missile over Kyiv.

Russia previously warned that deliveries of the systems to Ukraine could escalate the conflict.

Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in December that all weapons supplied by Western nations to Ukraine will be targeted by Russia.

"We would like to remind you that all the weapons supplied by the West to Ukraine are legitimate military targets for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and will either be destroyed or captured, as our country has repeatedly said," she told reporters.

A missile attack near Kyiv on May 16 caused "minor" damage to a Patriot anti-aircraft missile system, U.S. officials said.

LOL, what is this rubbish? Just buy HQ-9s from China. That is just better. The HQ variant SAMs.

People are all over the place with the Patriot Missile system, the Saudis had it and it didn't prevent the Iranian drone attack. In Ukraine it seems we hear better reports, Its a good system but its not some invincible system. Any air defense system can be beat, all it takes is enough saturation, and the right tactics.

i don't see the US selling the Patriots to Pakistan, nor do I see Pakistan wanting to acquire the system, given that its already fielding the HQ-9. The important element isn't as much as what system, but how many of the systems you can deploy and whether you can have an integrated and layered defense.
 
@KAL-EL

Why should Pakistan buy American stuff, when China is offering Pakistan a specialized version of HQ-9 called HQ-9P.

You can go laugh at yourself.
 
The colonial hangover is apparent when we see these folk believe in US tabloid media ,let alone US Gov.

I was expecting atleast one person to question the bizzare claim by US media, but l realized the colonial hangover is too deep.
 
Are they even on offer for Pakistan?
When has Pakistan really bought anything from USA? USA usually donates stuff in return for services offered. With an expensive system like this the service will have to include a lot of extras.
The Patriot has not been offered to India or Pakistan for good reason
 
US did not deny offering Patriot to Pakistan.
fine buddy, where is the money ? India itself did not want to buy one battery at 1 billion USD, so, it went for $600 million S400/S500. With pakistan's total forex at 4billion USD, how will u buy even a single Patriot battery ??
