    Chengdu J-10 Multirole Fighter Air Craft News & Discussions

    Hi, I am not a troll ninja. My original email was simply edited by someone, without me being notified. As such, I though I had accidentally deleted it. I was simply trying to point out that it would be nice for Pakistan to order 150+ J-10Bs, but funding is limited due to certain reasons. I...

    JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 4]

    Hi, let's kindly please avoid the JF-17 versus J-10 debate, as this has been discussed to death. They are two different platforms, designed for significantly different roles. One does not compare the F-16 to the F-15, the Mirage 2000 to the Rafale, or the MiG-29 to the Su-30, etc. The JF-17...

    JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 4]

    Hi Mr. Cb4, you simply cannot change the dimensions of a plane that have been optimized previously for given set of specifications and tolerances. Increasing the height, or wing area, or nose size, etc, can have the potential of increasing drag, throwing of the lift ratio, etc. As such, while...

    JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 4]

    Hi Mr. Mani2020, if this is true, then this is a very interesting point. However, without revealing the details of your sources, how credible is this information? Or are these simply rumors you have heard?

    JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 4]

    Hi, I would like to agree with Mr. Mafiya. I know this point has been debated before, as such I am not asking to open this up again. However, the RD-93 leaves too big of an exhaust trail. The designers and/or users need to rectify this.

    JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 4]

    Hi Mr. Cb4, no the fuselage/body has not been changed to mimic the J-10. The picture is simply a bit deceiving. I have a diecast model of the JF-17 and it has the same shape as this picture, given you view it at the same angle. The body shape looks different, but it due to the fact the photo...

    Ukrainian AI-222-25F engine may replace Russian RD-93 in JF-17 jets

    Hi, did some research on this engine, and have attached the correspnding link for Ivchenko-Progress Engines in Ukraine. They do have some good technology, especially thrust-vectoring. Pakistan at the very least should invest in codeveloping, or simply licensing this technology. However, it...

    Ukrainian AI-222-25F engine may replace Russian RD-93 in JF-17 jets

    Hi, currently AI-222-25F, in the 22K lbs version, is on the drawing board, if that. Also, it is not that simple to just slap a new engine into the JF-17 and say there you go. It will set back the JF-17 program back a few years. How long have we been hearing about the WS-13 engine, and do...

    Lal Masjid cleric acquitted in four cases... What a joke!

    Hi, I personally do not agree with your response, however I completely understand your reasoning. The fact the PA army has made so many sacrifices and the Pakistani nation paid such a heavy price, is due to inbred mullahs like him. Pakistan has been to scared to stand up to radical elements...

    Hi Mr. Zarvan, I understand your point and your frustration. I voice the same opinion. Pakistan needs these weapons not to be a threat, but rather have a credible deterrent.

    Chengdu J-10 Multirole Fighter Air Craft News & Discussions

    Hi Mr. Zarvan, I have noticed you have stated that Pakistan should buy 24 frigates, 16 subs, and now 150 J-10Bs. I agree the PN and PAF are in dire need of new equipment, as they are majorly outgunned by India. But, where is a broke nation like Pakistan going to get the money? Pakistan...

    South Africa, Brazil ready for A-Darter missile test

    Hi, the PAF only bought a couple of hundred rounds of the MAA-1A. The rumor was they were set to expire anyway, and the PAF bought them to train pilots and ground crews. If the JF-17 is going to be armed with the MAA-1B, this makes sense as the "A version" could be similar in nature to the...

    Hi Mr. INDTAM, please do not bother wasting your time on trollers or stupid posts. It is a clearly established fact that the PA aviation is seriously handicapped in terms of mobility, attack helicopters and transport helicopters when compared to the Indian Army aviation. One simply has to go...
