I am also not sure but I think it might be happening as well.
Block-IIs should have:
1. Composites
2. Advance Avionics and Sensors(FLIR and IRST pod under right air intakes)
3. Conformal Fuel tanks along with a retractable In Flight Refueling Probe
4. Local Assembly WS-13(100K.N with TVC)
5. Dual Seat version.
INSHA ALLAH I am sure will be present by the Grace of Almighty ALLAH.
Ameen.
i am just saying based on my experience and of few fellows from airforce. According to them "F-16 is the only potent fighter we have right now"

okay, but why do you portray it being upgraded to some top notch fighter if it is not so.Your experience is next to zilch, why do you cry out because no where does it say JFT is the replacement of Vipers but to replace old Mirages, Skybolts and Fantans.

@Luftwaffe Where did I remove the Thanks? I can still see it for the post by @Aeronaut above.I would have replied in detail but I don't want to derail the Thread, you can get you answers by going through collective JF-17 Threads in PAF Section. Top notch I do consider it from perspective of PAF as it is going to and is replacing 3 Types in service with better BVR closer to AIM 120 variants/WVR/Radar/EW suite/FBW/powerful computing/relatively lower RCS/more payload than those 3 Types, can carry antiship cruise missiles, possibly Ra'ad and CM-400AKG Hypersonic carrier killer missile if it is not significant development then people can go play pogo.
As Aeronaut mentioned in his post this is what JF-17 is.
@Argus Panoptes...you removed Thanks from Aetronaut

The last point is the most shocking one.
Everyone here expected the IFR probe to be installed on Block II, and the time line for Block II was mid-2013, but this statement shows it a couple of years away.
THis could mean one of two things. The IFR is not going to be installed on Block II, or the Block II isn't going to come in another couple of years.
