Ok buddy...

I know the reason why you posted this. You just wanted to include your junk fighter jet right? Sweet dreams....

I had another look again at your post. You mean to say JF-17 is better than Rafale, Gripens, F 35.... Vaara Vaa

 

[ptldM3]

B-2 is not a fighter, same for the retired F-117, SU-47 was a prototype, SU-37 was scrapped and they left out some good planes such as rafale, F-15, F-18, and SU-35.

No bro as ptldM3 said i didnt made the list , Please post something useful, if you dont like the list then feel free to make your own

 

[ashisbutt]

Look who is saying that...

And you are asking me to do a raking.. Now that's total BS. And even if I do it, I wont have our LCA. I'm rational.

Hey chill man frankie, ignore the trolls. But the list is pretty laughable as pltdM3 pointed out. Some of these are just tech demonstrators. I personally feel JF 17 is an amazing bird for the price tag and has good future with its upgrades. But it is not even close to the Typhoon, Rafale, or the flankers.
And noone feels LCA should make it to the list, but likewise for JF17.

 

[jagjitnatt]

pretty screwed up list mate.

No way JF-17 can match the Rafale, F35, Typhoon.

Even Su47 and Mig35 don't deserve that spot.

Should be

1. F22
2. Typhoon
3. Rafale
4. Su30MKI
5. F18
6. Gripen
7. F15/F16
8. Su27
9. Mig35
10. Mirage 2000
