so we're looking at some major changes in the airframe specially the nose and the fuselage ?
No, there is a solution.. but for now the KLJ-7 is sufficient.

they have to redesign the nose anyway to lower the RCS !!!No, there is a solution.. but for now the KLJ-7 is sufficient.

Many articles and Official statements suggest that PAF is not satisfied with the current RCS and that they are working on it !!!What is wrong with the RCS?

Surprisingly, i have always come across exactly opposite statements and articles.
done, SD-10 is a certified weapon on jft.
New EW suite. French to be exact.
1 JF-17 on loan to the Chinese. For their new engine trials. Expected time to mature ~ 5 years.
Tuned Avionics, upgraded hardware. Upgrades Software. Extra Target Tracking (hopeful).

Wont help much. It is not the plane alone. You have to think pof what happens when you hang its crown jewels out in the air for all to see. What are you going to do then? So let JFT be what it is--- a 4th generation plane capable of carying MRAAMs(SD10)and allowing a cheap alternative for the fleet replacement which PAF desperately needs. All the low visibility /stealth features can wait for the j31. Dont try mending that which is not broke.

The cost of rsdesigning would be prohibitive. Why not keep it simple and buy the rights to build J31 in house. That would be more sensible approachI disagree with you slightly here regarding stealth. Yes off-course, it is not feasible to change the current airframe to a stealth one. But Stealth block is on the paper. May be after 250 JF-17s inductions it will show up. Refer to the promotional video of PAC Kamra, which was also shared on this very thread couple of months back.
