I wouldn’t have info, although it would require some good power management to get the right beamforming for six engagement.
Are you referring to 6 simultaneous engagements?I wouldn’t have info, although it would require some good power management to get the right beamforming for six engagement.
AESA makes that a lot easier but more power as well.
what you're talking about SARHO air to air missiles (BVR) are old tech then ARH air to air missiles, you're mixing thing up ARH BVR are intended to replace SARH BVR like AMRAAM (ARH BVR) replaced AIM-7 Sparrow (SARH BVR), R-77 (ARH BVR) replaced R-27 ALAMO (SARH BVR) and guideness through AWACS is more complex than you thought but its not impossible, and do research before you post bro its a sincere advice to you @Philip the ArabDo you actually think it would be that hard? All that would be needed was a data link between AWACS, and drone and the ability for AWACS to guide SARH missile until ARH seeker turns on. You can probably even use very long range missile like PL-15.
Just for the sake of curiosity, i photo edited a JF-17B (simple MS Paint, i know i am bad at this!). For the sake of having commonlity of Airframes in JF-17 Block III and JF-17B, I assume a single seater JF-17 Block III shouldnt look much different than this.

Yes. Designating the target requires concentrating the beam or keeping a very sophisticated tracking file.Are you referring to 6 simultaneous engagements?

yes its possible and old tech since 70 F-14 can engage 6 targets simultaneously with its long range AIM-154 Phonix BVR, and RAFALE has also that capability @Philip the ArabAre you referring to 6 simultaneous engagements?
overloading is hard wired mentality of PakistanisBeyond 4 BVR missiles, law of diminishing returns would kick in. JF-17 does not have the stamina for a prolonged fight. It is more of a shoot-and-scoot type, being a light weight aircraft. Its strength lies in high sortie rate.
I'm saying that if SU-30MKI detects it is being tracked or being searched by aerial radars it will prioritize the aerial threat and lower threat of ground based radars thereby allowing SAMs to operate with less countermeasures while SU-30MKI is focused on perceived aerial threat being F-16, JF-17, etc while it is actually a cheap search radar integrated on drone.Fighter jets radars can detect/track 30/40 enemy jets and then radar automatically prioritize/show 6 most dangerous targets to pilots and are talking about IFF (Identification between friend and foe system) @Philip the Arab
I agree, IMO it just needs 4 to do great in aerial combat cause it is afterall a multirole aircraft.overloading is hard wired mentality of Pakistanis
just imagine things we do to motor bikes and Sazuki vehicles
no wonder our fanboys demand carrying capacity of F-15 or SU 30 from JF-17.
Beyond 4 BVR missiles, law of diminishing returns would kick in. JF-17 does not have the stamina for a prolonged fight. It is more of a shoot-and-scoot type, being a light weight aircraft. Its strength lies in high sortie rate.
For some reason, the PAF's JF-17s have yet to employ dual ejector racks. So, if they're indeed strengthening the wing-mounted hardpoints, we shouldn't stop at just 4 BVRAAM, it should be 6 at least (ideally 8).
*sigh*
