Mysterious buyer of JF-17 THUNDER BLOCK 2

[Jaanbaz]

So Pakistan also makes and even exports fighter jets? never knew that.

Congrats though.

So you haven't seen hundreds of threads on JF-17 Thunder for years on this forum?

Guys plz tell me in simple words. By 2017 how many thunders we will induct? How many will be prepared by Pakistan and how many by China? How many we will sell?

 

[ArsalanKhan21]

Pakistan does not have enough assembly facilities to assemble its own requirements of JF-17 and ordered 110 from China. We can assemble only 15 a year how can we fulfill Sri Lankan order and also replace our obsolete fighters ?

Only possibility - that too, remote, is for Pakistan to transfer few to SL under a tripartite arrangement. It is quite possible India has barred SL from buying major weaponry from China.

You can also sell your lately developed armed uav to Srilanka or similar countries with a smaller price as bonus. That would adverise the uav product and even atrract customers to both products.

India has barred Sri Lanka? India is not a superpower yet. And China's financial muscle much larger than India's.

I think if its Sri Lanka, the jet will most likely be built in China. Pakistan Aeronautical Complex cant cope with export order if the quoted annual production number is the measure to go by.

Pakistan will provide training, expertise and customer service while jets will be produced in China. Thats what my guess is.

In the past, Pakistan made Mashaq and Super Mashaq basic trainers and co-produced K-8 Jet trainers have been exported to several countries as well. Fighter jets is the latest achievement.

We didn't "make" Mashaq and Super Mashaq... We assembled them using Swedish kits!

Who cares when we successfully sold them to several buyers.
