Where have I said Jf17 programme is being run for free or not enough dollars being spent on it.
What I've said that any new procurement is curtailed as Jf17 production or new research for it Hampers the new procurement.
There seems to be just wish list of every Air chief to induct something cool. But no $s are there. They no doubt have best intentions, but progress in thunder programme hampers more funds availablability. For any new induction we need a 2-3 billion dollars payment schedule which this government...
That's more of a F 7 family evolution not the original Mig 21. The Migs evolution goes up to Mig 35 to date. Which is in my wish list atleast.
The F7 evolution is more like results of frustration in Chinese industry until a proper design like J10 and Jf17 s. Made both with foreign help.
Even Benazir sold bomb designs in her era for sure to North Korea. We had a barter trade for delivery system Scuds in shape of Hatf series. And M11 in Shaheen series from China as an alternate delivery if one is not reliable enough.
What AQ khan did was right thing to do. If Christians, Jews can do for each other to make them strong, Muslims should make examples too.
And there are usually no evidences left in such cases.
J10C is an ideal choice. What we lack is $s. Building another fighter is not a viable option for Pakistan right now.
But is there a Growler version in place? No its not even developed by China yet. A EW is built when you already using the basic platform. If China has not built it yet then how...
So how much power it's producing with full Ab. The rated thrust in display boards is 18900lbs with full Ab. I think Paf increased engine life by putting harnesses and other safety gadgets to make it more durable. French assistance was in disguise and now opening itself for further collaboration
I think delay is not necessarily due to a lack of experience or incompetence, like in Tejas case.
It must be a major refinement due to new technologies available and might also be due to some coming orders in pipe line for domestic or foreign.
I have a question. Can any body explain it?
We have a total of 100 operational thunders. The engine life is stated around 8 to 900hrs before first overhaul. If the last 10-14 aircrafts have made 200 to 250hrs in one year. Then how remaining from 1st to 90 can fly consecutively 39000 without...
Selling Jf17 to Iran is no big deal. If we can sell nuclear designs to make bomb what could be more big or dangerous selling to Iran. Iran never posed a big threat to Pakistan they just work for thier benefit either political, economic, international or geographical. Sell them the thunder it's...
But question is, I can we have them even we have all infrastructure. As far as US government is concerned, no chance of it during trump tenure. All we can do is to block thier passage for Afghanistan and link it to the military aid and sales.
There are around 60 more birds in there fleet. But...
About the jf-17-thunder it is the work horse now. And who says Paf doesn't want more than 150. Paf has plans for 250 to 275. We already have 114 by the end of this year. Total 126 plus 4 dual seater are planned and afterwards 100 plus blk 3.
Now already in books for upgrading both blocks with...
Some times you just to enter the market and make your image or name. In 60s there were so many camera makers poured in the US markets and sold cameras at almost cost to cost just to make thier brands spread. They earned thier names first. Same is Pakistan trying to do.
That was the time that...
