The last and final chapter of short book on JF-17 Thunder has been uploaded. The chapter includes information of JF-17 configuration of weapon load, range/mission profile and illustrations/digital art-work. I would need members help in proof reading the book before uploading its full and final Pdf version.
Enjoy the read!
Kentron (South Africa) built Raptor-I/H-2 Stand Off Weapon (SOW), is a lethal TV-guided glide bomb produced under license by Air Weapons Comlpex (AWC), Pakistan. H-2 has can strike a target upto 60 km (37.5 miles). H-2 has a Circular Error Probable (CEP) of 3m, hardened nose and timed fuse giving it the capability to penetrate Hardened Air Shelters (HAS) before explosion. Raptor-II/H-4 is a Beyond Visual Range Air to Air Missile (BVRAAM) with rocket motor.
Najam, whats this ..
few months back we thought thunder can carry four MRAAM on four underwing pylons(inner and outer), now it seems it can carry four with dual rack under two pylons..i wounder which is true or if both are wrong?
Thanks for the post. I have edited the typos error. Which is the other point you are pointing out? I hope you are not mixing up H-2 and H-4, the latter is not a A2G weapon. You can find its brochure on Denel dynamics official website.
Weapon load is not about carrying maximum but required/efficient weapons. The inner most pylons are for fuel tanks, pylon 6/7 will carry MRAAMs whether on single rail our dual rails.
oscar said sometime before that inner pylons were wired for SD-10 too, i was referring to that..plus there was an airshow armament photo showing MRAAM on inner pylons.
is there an authentic source(web or your personal) that dual racks have been applied and tested ion jf-17?

Can anyone identify what type of unguided bombs those are? Those bombs seem to be smaller than Chinese 250kg LDGP's.
