JF-17 in combat with F-16

[Windjammer]

Contrary to the claims by some that due to some American conditions, the PAF's fleet of F-16s is not allowed to mix with the JF-17. Do people really think that in a conflict, PAF will assure that each aircraft is used in different and separate sectors and scenarios.!!!
Far from it, i have received this image showing a JF-17 and an F-16 Block-52 about to enter into a DACT exercise, thus it should put an end to all the disinformation regarding any US terms and conditions on how PAF operates the Vipers.

Looks almost similar

They have basic communication or do they share same data-link ?

Yes, much resemblance.

Restrictions can be on spare parts but not on where to use it and with whom ?
Singapore too operate f-16's and has stationed them in india in west bengal. Of course, they do regular excercise with other indian A/C's.

Well, there are some similarities but no one can mistake one for other since the intakes are very different and prominent. Then CFT on F-16 gives it a sharp shoulder. Very similar wings and tails though but JF17 has a wider strake.

You had to drag in your Indian part here, the PAF F-7s have even exercised with the F-22s, so what's your point.

Link 17 ,where Link 16 talks to system and Link 17 is NAtional solution to communicate CHinese/French/US aircraft

DACT with drop tanks ?

 

[YeBeWarned]

Both aircrafts looks beautiful ..
Paf personal and long experience on f-16 plays a crucial role in the development of JF-17

 

[Swezu]

Yes, much resemblance.

Beautiful, my question is how much does a unit cost.

 

[Windjammer]

DACT with drop tanks ?

They are not exactly in the middle of their exercise, picture was probably taken before they entered the scenario.

 

[AMG_12]

DACT with drop tanks ?

Not a DACT or anything. Probably from an induction ceremony or concluding ceremony of some exercise.
