Beyond JF-17 Thunders: A quantum leap in technological growth

[Jungibaaz]

well pakistan should have got J 10 till jnow why paf making late on these deals

J-10B took a while to make but it's far superior to J-10A and it was well worth the wait... 2014 I hope to see it in PAF colours

I totally agree with you. But I wanted to point out the mistake in continuing to use F-16 and JF-17 even fifty years later.
China's recent history goes back to 1949 (two years after ours) and look where they are now. We can really learn from those guys, esp. hacking ...

China has an actual history for more than a thousand years, They were a nation ever, they were the inventors of abacus (basis of modern computer), Gun powder (Basis of modern Explosives), inventors of firecrackers and rockets (basis of current day missiles), inventors of aqua powered looms (basis of machincal loom), inventors of water clock (basis of modern day clock), inventors of printing (basis of modern paper printing press) and i can go on. We, on the other hand have just been a nation for 60 odd years so dont compare China with Pakistan. Even Indians were a nation well before Pakistan's recognition (Sub continent known as Hindustan). Of course we can learn from Chinese, they have helped us like no other, no doubts about it. But F-16 remains a premium medium to light fighter as we know. Its performance still to date remains a benchmark for any medium to light fighter (all the fighters in light class i.e. grippen, JFT, T-50 GE and even FC-K1 are benchmarked against none else but Da Falcon). I call still recall chogy (a pilot of USAF on F-15) that F-15 pilots feared not the F-18s or F-14s but F-16. F-16 was good when in hands of General Dynamics but was made even better by lockheed martin. I mean most of our friends here take the view of IAF (MMRCA tender) that F16 will be outdated. Well I respect IAF's PoV on Falcon but the fact remains that F-16 has been able to evolve like no other Jet around (block 10 to proposed block 70) and still worth a catch when compared with new enterents like Grippen, MIG-35, J-10, Rafale etc.

Any update on F-20?

Any update on F-20?

Not until we produce a few hundred.

I just read the title of this thread!! For all you non-physics grads.. A QUANTUM LEAP Is the SMALLEST possible jump! Google it!

Well I guess you are not a good physicst, a quantum leap occures when an electron shifts to another higher orbit. The possbile theme of title is that JFT project has put Pakistan now at an altogather different level than it would be without it. RIP!

Oh don't you doubt my physics. And the length of a quantum leap is literally the smallest possible leap.
And btw, an electron stays in the higher energy level for about 10^-15th of a second. So yeah.. Still not a good statement.

Okey, well if you want to interpret it that way then take the title as "just a very small step towards a big dream" Happy now?
