SOME MORE UPDATES FROM SIR PSHAMIM
An excellent display by Thunders showing off their performance and capabilities. Looks like that JF-17 display is restrained owing to the fact that it is the first foreign air display by Thunder. We should see more of its capability in in futore shows.
Now a little tidbits.
The next 50 ordered may be the BLK-2 with SD-10B as its primary weapon mounted on outer wing pylon. Sd-10B is said to have more range, smaller volume and lesser weight and is more comparable to the AIM-120C5
The BLK-2 is also said to get the IRST and an Aesa Radar. The strangest news is that it may have a rotating disc. The usual perception is that AESA has a fixed dish. Why and what performance the rotating dish will add, I do not know. May be some one else can do the research and report.
