What is the scope of aerospace engineering in pakistan?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Pretty wide actually but with limitations since Pakistan is still relatively new to the Aerospace industry.

Pakistan does not build Passenger jets.

Pakistan also does not build helicopters. However, a Pakistani Engineer did build one in his garage. You can check out the video on youtube. This is proof that the nation certainly has talented individuals and with more focus it very well can build just about anything it pleases.

In terms of manned aircraft design & development the nation's capabilities are limited. With products such as the K-8 trainer and the new JF-17 fighter, Pakistan's Aerospace industry in terms of aircraft development is relatively new but growing. No doubt, as India begins producing impressive indigenous aircraft such as the Saras, LCA, MCA and LCH, Pakistan will have to step up its game to face the challenge. This will result in a rise in demand for Aerospace Engineers.

Unmanned aircraft however is a different story. Pakistan has had incredible success in developing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). So much so that even nations such as Australia and the United States (the US border patrol) have bought UAVs such as the 'Border Eagle' UAV from private Pakistani Aerospace companies like Integrated Dynamics.

In other areas of Aerospace such as Missile development Pakistan also excels, some would argue it is ahead of India (this has been stated even by Indian media) in this field. Pakistan builds a large number of Ballistic missiles such as the Nasr, Abdali, Ghauri and Shaheen series. In addition, it also builds cruise missiles such as the Babur and Ra'ad.

Furthermore, Pakistan has also built quite a few satellites as well such as the Badr-1, Badr-2 and Pak-Sat that were all successfully launched into orbit.

Being a relatively young country, Pakistan is new to the Aerospace industry. However, every nation has to start somewhere. It looks like Pakistan has had more successes than failures so it looks like it is on the right track. Furthermore, if this country has the intelligence and talent required to build a nuclear bomb then it by all means possessed the merit to develop just about anything it wants or needs. All it takes is government funding but unfortunately, Pakistan's talented youth and professionals have been suppressed for decades by its incompetent leaders. If this changes, the country has the potential to become a greater world player than it is now.

How much is minimum wage for aerospace engineering?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is no minimum wage in aerospace engineering, wages are set based on "Market Target" with a +/- adjustment based on skills and performance. "Market Target" is an average of the average wages of a set of similar companies pay for similar job positions. It is calculated by several market statistics companies and purchased from them by each employer. It is an endless feedback loop. Part of the reason for this system is it reduces employee incentive to jump from company to company hoping to get more pay.

When I was working, I was usually payed "Market Target" +, but in the last few years I was fairly close to just "Market Target". On the day I was terminated I was being paid between $35 to $75 per hour (minimum wage was legally $8.00), the lowest I was ever payed (30 years earlier) was between $6 to $8 per hour (minimum wage was legally $2.65) when I was first hired.

To clarify, the official legal government set minimum wage still is in effect (it has to be as it is law) but the "Market Target" wage scale that applies to the engineers, other technical people, etc. is so far above it that its meaningless. Support level workers might get legal minimum wage for a few months but even they quickly rise well above that.

Difference between destructive testing and non destructive testing?

User Avatar

Asked by Dbiswal7

Destructive testing will render the part unusable for its intended purpose (e.g. it is cut up for analysis, or fatigue tested for life). Non destructive testing will, after testing, allow the part to be used for its intended purpose (e.g. test for leakage, flow, or resistance).

What education is required for a mechanical engineer?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Mechanical engineering requires a combination of technical, analytical, and interpersonal skills. Here are some key skills that are essential for mechanical engineers:

1. Strong problem-solving skills: Mechanical engineers need to be able to identify, analyze, and solve complex problems related to machinery, systems, and processes.

2. Technical expertise: Mechanical engineers need to have a deep understanding of mechanics, thermodynamics, and other core principles of engineering.

3. Creativity: Mechanical engineers need to be able to think creatively to come up with innovative solutions to engineering challenges.

4. Attention to detail: Mechanical engineers must be detail-oriented and able to ensure that all aspects of a design or process are carefully considered.

5. Communication skills: Mechanical engineers must be able to communicate complex technical information clearly and effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences.

6. Teamwork and collaboration: Mechanical engineers often work in interdisciplinary teams, so strong teamwork and collaboration skills are essential.

7. Computer skills: Mechanical engineers need to be proficient in using computer-aided design (CAD) software and other computer tools used in engineering.

8. Time management: Mechanical engineers need to be able to manage their time effectively to meet project deadlines and ensure that work is completed on schedule.

What are static load and dynamic load?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User


A static load is the effect of gravity on an object or structure.

A dynamic load is the forces that move or change when acting on a structure.

Example of a dynamic load:

Force of wind or the weight of a truck

Example of a static load:

Weight of a bridge

How long does an aerospace engineer work a week?

Asked by Wiki User

Engineers can work a normal US work week or spend overtime working until they are done with their current project(s). Usually AEs are alway working because they are thinking about their job all of the time.

Why work to a recognised standard when producing engineering drawings?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The simplest answer is that working to a standard means that anyone can read the drawing.

If there is no standard the symbols used on the drawing (weld type and size, surface finish, even the dimensioning of the components) would vary from one drawing (or draughtsperson) to another and cause confusion.

Engineering drawings use a large number of symbols to denote operations and instructions (which reduces the time taken to draw them and the size of "paper" they're drawn on).

Imagine the potential problems if one person used a symbol to mean "weld" and another one used the same (or similar) symbol to mean "do not weld".

What is the standard length to width ratio of a fuselage?

User Avatar

Asked by Robertfairbrother

Um, there isn't one.

If there were a "standard" then all aircraft would be pretty much the same. And they aren't.

It depends on the design mission (think wide-body passenger aircraft versus the F-104 Starfighter for example), and a number of other considerations.
