How are the two linked...? Huh ...why don't you just browse all the crap Indians are posting about the 'superiority' of Tejas over Thunder....I have 100 reasons to tell you how both are linked ...btw how late the Tejas was ?

Dost don't derail the thread.

This thread is going fine no need to derail it please. We also ask questions in Indian threads, nothing wrong with it as long as it's not troll attempt, which is not the case on this thread.

sorry if I am making you look more foolish, but how does the schedule of JF 17's 3rd squadron linked to the schedule of LCA ?

47 of them were in service by early 2013,Now whether a dedicated 3rd squadron is declared for them or not.it should not matter as long as they are being produced and active in service

Now you are coming out of your skin....It is linked the same way as the LCA was late and guzzling more than the assigned budget ...yet you question the announcement of Block-3 as late ...

Great progress!

First Block 2 JF-17s under construction in Pakistan

Production of the first two of 50 Block 2 JF-17s on order by the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) is now well under way at the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex, Kamra, with the first expected to fly by the end of the year.

The Block 2 JF-17 has several capability increases over the Block 1s, but the main boost to the PAF as well as to export potential is the installation of an air-to-air refuelling system. One aircraft has been fitted with a refuelling probe, which protrudes from the right side of the fuselage just behind the cockpit, sitting forward of the pilot's position. It is being used for flight trials.

However, this modification will not appear in Block 2 aircraft until midway through the production at the Aircraft Manufacturing Factory (AMF), probably in early 2016, PAF officials said. Coupled with software enhancements, other new features include an upgrade to the avionics system that works around China's Nanjing KLJ-7 radar.

As a result, the Block 2s can add the Chinese-designed C-802 anti-ship missile and SD-10A beyond-visual-range air-to-air missile to the Block 1s' existing armoury, which includes Mk 82/84 dumb bombs and the PL-5-EII short-range air-to-air missile. All the Block 1s will eventually be upgraded with the Block 2 improvements.

With an urgent need to export JF-17s, a two-seater will be built in the Block 2 time frame. The PAF had always said that a two-seater is not urgent, but Air Chief Marshal Tahir Rafique Butt now admits that a dual seater is a necessity. "We realise that it is required, because the air forces interested in buying JF-17 want one," he said.

PAF pilots currently converting to JF-17 are accumulating around 25 hours on a JF-17 simulator operational at Kamra, where one of the two operational squadrons is based. Nearly all the Block 1s have now been delivered to the PAF, which has a current requirement for 150 to replace the ageing F-7P and Mirage III/Vs.

WHAT? Lost ERIEYE?
since when did we lost an ERIEYE aircraft?
It was the P3C Orion that was lost in mehraan base attack.
No aircraft was demaged in Kamra attack. Infact Kamra attack was a Failed attempt and successfully fended off by security forces and no significant loss occured.
You guys are mixing mehran base incidence with kamra attack

You are right, we never lost an ERIEYE ....Thanks to Sipahi Asif Shaheed who all alone kept 7 terrorists away from entering the premises with a G-3 rifle ...

The 2 are not linked dude. LCA is a home grown development project in India. JF 17 is mostly a local manufacturing project for Pakistan with development primarily done in China. Apples and Oranges.

Jaagooo mairay dost tum khoab e khargosh kay mazay lay rahay ho ...

The lost P3C has been replaced by new induction and Tragically we have lost or may be damaged beyond repairable ERIEYE. So after that attack we are not flashing our tool at the face of our enemies or thats we do usually

Do you have something to prove that we lost an ERIEYE ?
