Once again only wings would be strengthened along with some more composite structures...Problem of range would be solved by the new engineno chance!!
Will kill the main objective of the plane. The Blk 3 AT BEST, will see better engine and radar, and a bit increase in payload in shape of dual rack launchers and MAY BE a dedicated hard point for EW PODs under frontal fuselage. Helmet mounted sight will be integrated with weapon package. AT BEST, If PAC have funds and the willingness to go beyond that, it will see IRST. No CFT or Internal Weapons bay in Blk-III.
Do you think adding DAS would increase capabilities in regards to engaging Rafale or EFT's not in close combat but at BVR range.
