Hi,
The americans are hating the pakistani like never before---so---the resulting sanction would be like never before---and anyone helping to circumvent them---would have problems with the U S.
So---for that reason---your prime fighter cannot have any doubts about its operation.
I say again---the JF17 is a wonderful aircraft on its own merits---but the problem is that you are not operating in ETHER.
Your equipment is to fight the enemy---until and unless some of your aircraft are not knowingly known to take out the enemy---you have a problem---because the enemy is not scared---when they are not scared---they do not make mistakes.
There has to be fear in the heart of the enemy---there has to be a SHINING SWORD --- as one of our wonderful colleague put it in those words---.
Until and unless the air commodore does not state in his interview about two heavy missile being operated by the JF17's as operational---then it is not---regardless of any reasoning---by you or any other member---.
The air commodore gave technical reasons why it could not be done.
Now as for the pod for the J10C's---use the wmd7 or whatever is available---use it and find ways to upgrade it and modify it.
You are into the battle zone against the terrorists---so what is the big deal if you don't have the best of the best.
Then you have turkey developing the pod---and you have access to vixen.
My man---to start the journey---you need to take the first step---. In 5 years time---the potency of the chinese electronics package would be almost twice as potent as they are today.
The south china seas crisis has lit a massive fire under the chinese ar-se---that is why they were back in good league with pakistan as compared to 2012---. They are spending as much as they can to make the break thru in their electronics warfare packages.
Their fighter aircraft engines are in service now---and there is no reason to believe that their radars and jammers and irst and optics would not be upto the mark.
It is time to stop listening to the lies of the PAF and let them know now that
they are liars and totally incompetent NINCOMPOOPS in negotiating for a fighter aircraft deal---.
This Guy Sohail Aman---he is DUMB---.
Can you point me to the interview that commodore gave because that is against all logic and experience. Even very old manual aircrafts could do this. If a weapons station could take up the load you could make very low bomb runs and just need the stick to keep plane steady afterward. And pilots will than use trim functions to steady the ship so as not keep pressure on the stick. Modern FBW jet can do this automatically, if you can find videos of jets firing from one wing you can see this effect to some extent easily.
