How is this for an over 50 year old airframe. The maintenance quality speaks volumes of PAC Engineers and PAF Ground Crew.

SD10 had been successfully integrated on the belly hardpoint of Mirage ROSE 1. Congrats to all. Mirages have become BVR capable now .

Now? I thought they had this capability for a while?

Does the belly hardpoint have a dual rack?

Busy bees never come short of surprises. Still, people want it to be retired today. And I say; if thing does the job well done like you don't talk but you shoot; what does it matter to have this or that shiny toy. Well-done boyees.

If this is true then this can mean either:
1. The Chinese are willing to mate their missile to a Griffo radar. This might mean that the Italian radar option for the JF17 plus chinese missiles may have been more viable than originally thought. (and the Chinese radar won out based on capability and speed of integration and not some refusal of the Chinese to mate their missiles)
2. The Chinese installed a Chinese radar in the Mirage. AESA mirage 3?lol
3. This is just a statement about carrying the missile and not integration and firing.

Edit: 1 may be due to the induction of the PL15 and the existence of the PL15E, the SD10 isnt considered critical enough to be restricted in terms of integration.

Option #2 sounds very interesting, whether it's viable is another matter.

tbh putting an AESA radar onto the Mirage III wouldn't be the craziest thing out there. The Israelis sort of did it with the Kfir Block-60. The question is whether the cost of doing it on the PAF's ROSE-Is is feasible enough. Perhaps there was an even smaller CETC AESA radar on offer?
