Dubai Airshow 2011

[Mosamania]

And I told everyone and my friend mosamania that RSAF will order more Typhoons, so in the end current F-15s will be considerably upgraded, but lets wait a few days more for the confirmation unless US does something to jeopardize. A wise choice from the perspective of success of Typhoons, there is nothing wrong with Typhoons only Europeans bad economy could not procure more orders other than that its next best to F-35s. Heard RSAF Typhoons are called "Desert Eagles".

Right now there are mixed signals on our Typhoon assembly plant apparently BAE has Typhoons canceled orders just hanging there in Warton waiting to be delivered but we keep insisting on making them here. And I don't think the Typhoon will be called desert eagle I much rather that name's copy rights remain until we make our own jet eventually.

Yesterday AEC (Advanced Electronic Company) celebrated completing the modernization of the Tornados to the GR4 variant with its own electronics and Avionics.

Since you seem like an expert here . how close or serious is the Egyptian negotiations ?

Ill try to answer from what Nabil has told us recently. Reportedly negotiations are underway on the TOT and the production plant for Egypt. Of course Nabil will probably have more details.

In Arabic forum the JF-17 is officially now known as "The Islamic Jet" lol.

The convos are like this "You can clearly see The Muslim jet rate of climb on this video yada yada" And "The Muslim Jet can carry these weapons yada yada" lol

[agentny17]

So now I understand Why Mr. Chogy has been praising Typhoon so much cuz they want deal to go through with the Saudis....
U know what he was saying in his posts that Typhoon is even better than 5th Generation fighters PAK FA T-50 and J-20....

the painting of the black spider on the tail of JFT looks better than the black panther they have painted on the tail of this JFT which is from 16 sqn.it lookis more like a monkey rather than panther.the panther on the fuel tank seems to be a good panther.

You got good observation man. But we can do, PAF is free to paint anything they want can't complain about it.Yes! we gotta appreciate that at least they did something good to show the world.....

No he did not. Please go back and read his posts again. And why would he? Hes an American. A Typhoon sale wouldnt benefit him in any way but an F-15 sale would.

air chief hinted for the block 3 thunder as well which will be produced 2016 onwards.so wat r the planned upgrades for that version?

most probably the full stealth options plus Thrust vectoring tech and the Radar range increase etc....

 

[ChineseTiger1986]

nice to see thunder roaring again.but the air crash in attock happened at a very wrong time.its strange that PLAAF has not yet decided to induct thunder in its fleet.they have good number of 4th gen air crafts but a lot of junk as well which must be replaced n i think JFT is a gud option for them.its gud that many 3rd world countries r looking at the thunder for replacing their aged air crafts but it doesn't seem that any country with money will be going for thunder.

The JF-17 was first proposed by the PAF, and they did convince China to join into the project.

On the other hand, this aircraft is mostly designed for the needs of the PAF.

There is no copy right issue. "Desert Eagle" is a perfect name.

I think Germany could possibly get them with an arrangement there is no extra cost involved. Or Luftwaffe could get half of them and Half is manufactured in Saudi Arabia in any case Typhoons have strong case F-15s are left in a lurch.

Greece is out of question to get them considering their economic conditions they did announced in past to procure 60 Typhoons but currently economy does not give them any blessing.

But I guess F-15S (stealth version) is better than Typhoon. But I guess the deal of Typhoon will be better for Saudis in order not to face any future problems from US.If the Saudis are doing assembly or some manufacturing at their home country then that is a great option...

You answered, Flexibility is the term. Next would be software source code, don't know if UK agreed to it.

Well we ARE installing our own targeting pod on it so I think yeah maybe we got the source code.
