If you're mentioning Block 2, then it would be aircraft 1.
So 14-201

sounds logical...

It is not ready to be mass produced yet. You will start hearing things in 2016- 2018.

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

Sorta strange that our production is only 2 planes for 2014 year way below our capacity
Did they meant 2 squadrons would be ready of block 2 , or just 2 planes

Did we not finish first 50 planes last year ?

 

[帅的一匹]

I suppose that after Block 2, we shall see Block 3 with WS-13 engine and AESA radar maybe

That's for sure.

u r in a real hurry sir.....

yup much much hurry
bcz india has right now 200 AESA air crafts su 30 but we dont have single with AESA ... so hope so after block 2 we will make AESA system in block 3

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

Well, I think apart from comparison with India , our Production levels have fallen a bit then what it was anticipated earlier one. Perhaps it was done intentionally to let the plane mature so newer components become available so more units would be of higher block levels

But it would be nice to induct few Block 2 jets in Squadrons

The Airforce / Military shoud be updated according to population figures and strength of the force itself , and based on our Population / Economy and personnel and territory we need to guard , we have to maintain appropriate level of production

Not an AESA but a PESA radar......And AESA's main advantage is lower probability for being intercepted by the RWR of target aircraft. KLJ can exploit the full potential of SD-10s in service with PAF. That's just about enough for the time being.

[Global military report] at this air show, the Pakistan Air Force exhibited an FC-1 fighter, the scale is less than the previous two exhibitions as a huge contingent of exhibitors. Reporters in China Aviation Museum exhibition FC-1 interview with the Pakistan Air Force Major General Khalid • Major General Mahmoud.

Reporter: Compared to the previous two Zhuhai Air Show, the Zhuhai Airshow this we only saw an FC-1. Why on such a grand celebration, Pakistan did not send "lion" flight demonstration team it?

Khalid: This year's air show is different. This year's focus is the J-31, -20, and various radar operation. With them, this is a good session airshow. We understand that. But we also brought a gift, you can see us on the outside of the JF-17 (ie, FC-1).

Reporter: Zhuhai Airshow previous two we can encounter a lot of the Pakistan Air Force pilots and ground crew. But this year we often encounter on the Zhuhai Airshow UAE pilots rarely see Pakistan Air Force personnel.

Khalid: Yes. Before we send a lot of planes fly in Zhuhai, so we'll have a lot of pilots, engineers and service staff. But this time we are coming from Chengdu, came only six people.

Reporter: As you said, the focus is on J-31, you have any comments on behind the J-31?


Khalid: This is a high-tech and high-quality aircraft. Really impressive, so that everyone participate in Zhuhai Air Show this session have left a deep impression. This is a strong signal that China has made considerable progress in aircraft manufacturing. This is a huge jump, but this is not the first time, but the second time. We are also very proud of this, because you are our friend.

Reporter: Zhuhai Airshow last time a lot of Jian Shi Pakistani military officers showed great interest in the past two years Pakistan has the intention to buy Jian Shi it?

Khalid: We are currently co-production of fighter only JF-17 (ie, FC-1). There are 48 in production. Next month and there will be a number of new fighters appear. So we have a good few years.

Reporter: Chengdu Jian Shi and J20 is produced, there is no contact with the Pakistan Air Force aircraft?

Khalid: Our pilots have flown Jian Shi a. But the J-20 to show us before, we only saw, no driving too. Next month the latest batch of JF-17 will appear, aircraft conducted a lot of improvements, equipped with new weapons. This is great progress.

Jian shi = J 10
