Later this year Pakistani officials expect to see the JF-17 perform at the Farnborough Air Show in the UK for the first time. The PAF plans to eventually acquire up to 250 JF-17 aircraft, making it the main backbone of its fighter fleet.

ATTENTION EVERY ONE.!

a few months ago a member NABIL posted a few lines regarding some new information about jf-17 like,multiple missile racks,carbon composites,BVR missile on wingtip rail.etc
i tried to find details regarding wingtip rail could launch SD10 missile but got nothing.hence started a research on it.

here is the detail.

Newer blocks of f16 have LAU-127 on its wingtip that launches aim-120 as well as aim-9.
take a look at this.

it says there are two points in the middle AIM-9 STRIKER POINTS & AIM-120 UMBILICAL(which connects with aim120,supply power & launches it).

here we cannot match LAU-127 with SD10 launcher b/c it is a Chinese missile launcher and probably its connector would be different in shape.but SD-10 is believed to be similar to aim-120 and hence its launcher or its mechanism could be similar.

now here is the picture of Jf-17 wing tip.

see there are two points it it just like f16s new wingtip rail.
aim120 Umbilical seems to be rounded shape in first diagram but its in square shape similar to aim-9 striker. remember if some one say,"it could be a joint(screw,nuts) of rail to wing" then there isn't any other joint except this one on it.

let see different snaps that i cut off from different f16 pictures.
jf-17's rail and lau127 seems to be similar.i couldn't find any closer picture of LAU-127.


now if some one have any doubt in it,he can compare jf17s rail with f16s older wingtip rail which contains only one striking point for sidewinder.while thunder's rail got two.

here r some pictures of SD10 launcher which is quite similar to Thunders wingtip rail.

France feels the $ 25 bln pinch for JF-17 deception–GD Suez on hold

There are rumors and media reports that Pakistan has retaliated against France for delaying the signing of the parts for the JF-17 thunders. A couple of weeks ago France under pressure from Bharat delayed or canceled the transfer of parts for the Pakistani redesigned JF-17 Thunders.
The Pakistan government has delayed an energy deal, due to be signed on April 15, with French company GDF Suez. The Pakistani Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Resources in February awarded a contract worth up to US$25 billion to GDF Suez to import 3.75 million tonnes per annum of liquefied natural gas (LNG) for up to 20 years. The LNG from Qatar was to be imported at a price of $1.8 billion in the first six years.

The French leader President Sarkozy is scheduled to visit Pakistan to sort out the matter of the further sales of the Augusta Submarines. The Pakistan Navy wanted to buy the 214 German Subs. However a tangled web of mystery ended up with Pakistan seeking the French subs.

Now that deal may also be in jeopardy. Unless President Sarkozy plans a quid pro quo, both the Submarine and gas contracts will go to German and Chinese companies.

Nice! N’est pas?

There is a disjunction between private and public French posturing. Islamabad is used to French double-dealing, duplicity, and equivocation. In the 80s France backed out a Nuclear Reprocessing plant deal with Pakistan–under US pressure. Pakistanis totally get it. They know French polysyllabic profundity to the core. This last sleight-of-hand scurvy trick is typical of France’s subterfuge and deceitful fakement. The French turpitude on putting a $1.6 billion deal for Pakistan “on hold” was seen for what it was— silly surreptitious trickery by Sarkozy and gang to secure the lucrative Bharati (aka Indian) deal first and put then pressure on Pakistan to force Islamabad to buy the Scorpians/Augustas rather than the German 214 Submarines.

Now Pakistan has raised the stakes.

If Mr. Sarkozy wants to lose the $20 billion Suez deal, he can continue to pander to Delhi.

In 2008 Pakistan Navy under chief of naval staff Admiral Muhammad Afzal Tahir made efforts for including German 214 Class submarines in its fleet and owing to Navy’s persistent efforts, the government had approved plans for acquisition of these submarines to be built at Karachi Shipyard under transfer of technology programme.

The details were later worked out between the two countries when a Pakistan Navy delegation visited Germany in April.

However recently quoting Pakistani government sources, the Financial Times Deutschland says President Asif Zardari may overrule his military’s preference for the German subs to take up a “better offer” from France.

If Mr. Sarkozy does not play ball and ships the JF-17 Thunder parts ”tout de suite”, France will lose a major deal with Pakistan.

Want to play hard Ball? Bein Sur!

How about them apples Sarkozy? Vous comprenez?

Danger-Zone

I was the one who heard it but you verified it thoroughly. Great work buddy! Much appreciated

but still they consider it as 4.5 generation fighter.:rofl::blah:

yes they like to talk loud but most of the time it goes down the drain.

LCA would have an American engine a french design and electronics with some parts from israel but that would be called indeginous.

Incorporating this launch rail on Thunder's wingtip only makes sense as it has seven hard points as of now and all of them had to be capable of launching MRAAMS as they are at the moment.
 
.
The SD-10 is twice as heavy (199 kg) as an AIM-9L (91 kg) and whereas F-16s wingtip rails can be mounted with AMRAAM (152 kg), the JF-17s wingtip rails will be able to do the same is remained to be seen till an actual photo is surfaced.

Danger zone i have talked about MER's a few pages back comparing it with that of Gripen's and thunder's Multi ejection rack capability has been proven on its prototypes.

awsome post ...!
