It is confirmed that Pakistan Air Force JF-17 Thunder will be participating in the Izmir air show in Turkey along with F-16 fighter jets.

Three JF-17 Thunders from the Pakistan Air Force participated in Farnborough Air Show and Zhuhai Air Show last year in order to attract customers. Chinese company CATIC has said that are in talks with about eight countries for sale of the JF-17 Thunder.

Pakistan air force has already announced its plans to purchase around 250 JF-17 Thunder fighter jets to replace its old inventory. Pakistan has signed an agreement with the China for the second batch of 50 JF-17 Thunders this month.

JF-17 is jointly developed and produced by Pakistan and China. Both countries are offering JF-17 Thunder to the countries which are looking to replace their old fighter jets with inexpensive modern fighter jets.

Alan Warnes has also said that Sherdil aerobatics display team of the Pakistan Air Force Academy has cancel its scheduled visit to the Izmir air show in Turkey. This team uses K-8 “Karakorum” Fighter Jet Trainers which were jointly developed by the Pakistan and China.

Seems like a fake one to me. The paint seems new like Block 52 and there isint a earlier block with this paint.
 
Nice. Best of luck to PAF for the air show!

Any other details why the JF-17 was withdrawn from France.
 
Will the JF-17 perform along PAF falcons or Turkish falcons?

its a real one dude. this is the older block 15 paint scheme. and the F-16 is from 11squadron.
take a look at the nose gear, the block 52 has a very large nose gear.
 
The same F-16 flown by Lt. Khalid Mehmood which shot down Mig-23 during soviet war :sniper:
And oh sorry this reply was meant for another post.

the same bird has been flown by my cousin while his tenure in 11 sqn. but now he is posted to jacobabad and is undergoing his conversion on block 52.
 
Yea and on last min It will also be ban from Airshow again! so much BS...
 

Its the same aircraft Air Cdre Khalid flew on 12 Sep 1988, he shot down two Mig-23s in that mission. Thanks to PAC Kamra for the paint job.Most probably some engine modules are also overhauled at PAC.

Good to see such a victorious a/c sent to Turkey.:pakistan:

Turkey is more like a brother Nation for us. I am sure they wont do it, espicially after the two Nation are trying to get together.
