Apparently , the Pakistsni defence officials were so awestruck by its performance in the sky & were so mesmerised by theTejas's performance that they got carried away to such an extent that they were observed asking the location of the stall to make further enquiries.

On being informed that it was the Tejas , they were talking about, their faces were a sight to behold.They quietly slunked away and as of now care their whereabouts are unknown.

really?

 

[Paksanity]

It's confidential.I can't divulge my sources .but make no mistake , the Pakistanis who observed Tejas performing those manoeuvres swung between deep dispair , to grudging admiration , to criticizing their top brass for selecting China as their partnering nation for their country's leading strike fighter for the next few decades.

In fact , a senior PAF officer was heard remarking that only if the Pak govt had some foresight & launched an indigenization programme , they would definitely have come up with something better than the JF 17 that they're now saddled with .

Get a life. No seriously.

Anyone got a link of official or better quality video?

Of course.They were also overheard criticizing the Pak govt 'S decision to withdraw the JF 17 from the air show at the last min.

"Laanat hain Mian Sahab par.Naak katwaadi humari."

"Par Captain , hum is tejas ka muqabla nahi kar sakte.In beghairat bharatiyon ne to gazab ka fighter banwaya.Jung chid gaya toh moonh dikhaane laayak nahi rahegaa , humara JF - 17 "

"Toh kya hua , Group Captain , kamse kam hume air show se peeche nahi hatna chahiye tha.Plane ko tarmac par Hi khada kar dete.Ab to alam yeh hain ki sab has rahe hain hum par ".

I don't think so buddy.

I have waited for Tejas to fly like this since my school days.

Impressive performance

and for those fools saying that JF-17 doesn't participated because of Tejas,they should know that JF-17 will Participate in 2 other airshows this year and PAF has always preferred Dubai airshow over Bahrain for middle east.

The performance is awesome but JF-17 performance was equally good if not better.

Tejas can fly? What happened to the truck that tows Tejas everywhere? J/K

Apparently the PAF paid a $500,000 USD non-refundable deposit to reserve the 2 parking slots though. I'm not saying the Thunder didn't come becausr the LCA was there but it certainly seems like the decsion not to go was last minuet until a few days ago the Thunder was listed on the BIAS website as attending.

True.Absolutely true.Which is why the PAF registered , paid the fees & is now forfeiting it for lack of participation .

Captain obvious has pointed out that aircraft require engines to provide sufficent propulsion in order to create lift over the wings and act against the earth's gravity

Why is this guy not a think tank???

Now that you've pointed out the obvious , the management out here will be forced to make amends. be prepared to see him elevated in the near future.

You've asked for it , you've had it.

Let's not clutter the thread with things about JF, it really doesnt matter now. It's not there, reasoning behind it is totally irrelevant.

Tejas team may send Tejas to the Singapore airshow as well.
