[DANGER-ZONE]

dear yellow is used when you are testing ....... blue is operational colour of PLAAF as i have seen different fighters carrying blue bombs and missiles and fired them but they are not fully loaded with explosives as it is used in traning....... but in larger picture colour doesn't matter........

no budy, PLAAF's empty rounds and testing missiles are blue in colour ... husnain is right

Don't know about t-06, most probably a NO, but Pt-03 & Pt-04 were flown extensively by PAF pilots.

And from pitot tube i meant that long one on the nose cone, definitely there are others which we see just around the cockpit.

But will PT-06 be flown at any stage by PAF pilots?

PT-06 is the FC-1 testbed....

GRIPEN INDIA: Gripen NG: Wide Spectrum Combat

your comments on this Mumbo jumbo

Well, my guess is that it shows the range of frequency which Gripen NG can use for sharing sensor information / data with other planes. But this is my very preliminery guess which can be DEAD-WRONG as well.

GRIPEN INDIA: Gripen NG: Wide Spectrum Combat

your comments on this Mumbo jumbo

I think they are asserting this said by Admiral Sergei Gorschkov Former Commander-in-Chief Soviet Navy

"If there is a World War Three, the winner will be the side that can best control and manage the electromagnetic
spectrum."

I believe they are going on about situational awareness with the ability to capture, share, and also deny the enemy use of the electromagnetic spectrum. They are summing up or claimining mastery of radar, IR, radio comms, jamming and anti-jamming, data-links, anti-EMP resistance etc.

No news yet about delivery 50 of JF-17 from China to Pakistan.Defence minister told in Dubai air show that 3 squadron are flying in PAF while another is busy in China.That comments also credit old news that China will deliver 50 A/C to Pakistan.It also looks those plane would be Navy specific.

Gripen have canards, why not JF-17s?? That's advantages over JF-17s.

GRIPEN INDIA: Gripen NG: Wide Spectrum Combat

your comments on this Mumbo jumbo

The author is too flawed in his description for example

Gripen NG is built for such future silent operations. When Gripen NG approaches an advanced adversary in the air, its powerful AESA radar and EW antennas are silent, listening . These two systems are very well adapted for position determination by only listening to enemy emissions . It is important to notice that in a totally silent scenario, where all aircraft avoid emitting with radar, RCS (Radar Cross Section) is meaningless.It doesn’t matter if you have the best stealth features in the world if all radars in the scenario are turned off. And as soon as an enemy turns his radar on and starts emitting, Gripen NG pilots know where he is.

1-AFAIK, EW is not a passive technology but RWR is which author has mixed up with EW, the author also apparently describes AESA as PESA, because AESA does not apply passive tech but avoids detection by employing LPI tech.
2-The author also apparently does not know that passive sensors have their own limitations vis-a-vis active sensors.
3-It is indeed in Passive mode but if grippen relies only on passive while its opponent also uses active sensors to agument passive ones. Grippen would be a clear looser. For example, the passive sensor may tell you that you have an adversary in 200KM but does not tell you where to be exactly.
