JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 4]

[Last Hope]

Probably the next blk

Cannot confirm.. From what we are hearing in Dubai, the second block is going to be twin seater and coming in 2012.
This certainly cannot be it. Though there is a J-10 next to the unmarked fighter.

Not just twin seater alone but the aircrafts of Block2 will also include twin seater too. Thats what the article says

Where that foto with what looks like 5 or 6 JF-17s in a raw, with cover and in shelters and in China? Part of the series of photos speculated to be an Block II Thunder. ... ... I am thinking, could those handful of planes be the PAF Squadron said to be in China?

The second block is NOT the twin seater. I have said repeatedly that it has a total revamping in radar, avionics, RCS reduction with diamond nose, EW etc. twin seater is blk 1config with two seats more like an f-16b/ d. It can also be equipped with blk 2 config.

The most important of all is it having AESA radar...and more longer BVR....

guys congrats china has ordered 1000 aircraft for there forces here is the link to the article http://www.siasat.pk/forum/showthread.php?89125-Finally-Chinese-are-Ordering-1000-Thunders

As per today's column of Mr. Altaf Hasan Qureshi in Jang Newspaper, China has placed an order of "1000" JF-17 Thunders for it's Air Force. . He is making reference to his Interaction with Air Marshal(R) Shahid Lateef ( chief Project Manager of JF-17 thunder Project). Moreover, Egyptian Air Force order of thunder is also in pipeline. Needless to say due to Economies of scale price of Thunder will be reduced further.
