JF-17 Block-3 -- Updates, News & Discussion

[PakShaheen79]

So we can say that Chinese are pushing hard to take some market share from well established mil aviation giants. It looks like they will replace Russians in that regard first. I am saying this because with such advancements, Chinese are introducing new tech in their later products while even the most sophisticated Russian jets like SU-57 Felon, have legacy systems like traditional IRST mounted in front of cockpit while we can see planes like F-35 and J-20 have moved towards more advanced Electro-optical Distributed Aperture System (EoDAS) like The AN/AAQ-37. Even J-20 have embedded Chinese counterpart in its body. Even design wise, J-20 looks more advanced than SU-57.

He gained this knowledge from random youtube videos and defence forums. Other than that it has nothing to do with reality.

Mentioning Thunder Block-III, China and all that coming from PM Azad Kashmir in these times is more of alignment of region and how the face-off going to be for Rafale mantra force. More of a clear policy by making statement about defence product.

J-20 is the most advanced 5th generation jet and I can say that with confidence.

The F-22A was designed/developed in the 80's with the full focus at that time being the USSR. The F-22s range therefore is fairly short because it was intended to fight over land not the pacific ocean as would the case be with China.

The J-20 was developed in the last 2010s. It is designed with the latest semiconductor, radio, avionics, electronics, etc... The F-22 was produced in the 1990s and then stopped. Hasnt been in production for over a decade.

The F-35 stands a better chance again the J-20 tbh, because its technology and sensors are ages ahead of the F-22.

So no credibility in this tweet?

Technically = No credibility as of yet for speaking of Chinese Engine.

well chinese don't have just jf-17 project
ws-13E is alternative for jf-17 and also for J-31,JH-7,J-35 ,Stealth drone bombers etc
PAF will go with RD-93MA

He didn't mentioned any specific name of the engine. He just said that Chinese have spent billion of dollar to mature its engine technology.

Exactly! That's why I consider F-35 and J-20 as 2 most sophisticated fighters right now. I sometime wonder if JF-17 can incorporate 2 or 4 sensors of EOTS-86 (even a scaled down version will do) which is J-20's EoDAS, it will surpass almost all 4/4.5Gen fighters in sensor fusion. I don't know how good it is compared to AN/AAQ-37 of F-35 which have demonstrated in 2012 picking up a rocket launch from insane 1300 KM distance.
