JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 7]

Ive heard in an Air Force interview don't have it's video in my computer now. Air commodore Khalid stated that for sure. 144 single seaters and these 6 dual seaters to make 150 before Blk 3.

There were reports that 2 current plus another 12-14 in 2018 dual seater will be built at PAC to keep production going as block 3 and 2 has a gap of one year or 2018 ?? Or single seaters ??

6 dual seater for 144 seems to few each sqn current one mirage / f7 has 1 -2 dual seaters plus ocu usually has 4-6 dual seater

Guessing 150/18 or 20 per sqn

7-8 sqn you need more dual seater but I guess simulator may be replacing or bring the need down per paf history book paf building 4/5 jf simulators at various bases
 

Two out of the five are J-10As, notice the vertical tails and fuselage, and compare with this..

A clear giveaway is the missing ECM housing on top of both tails...
 
I thinks it's a electronic warfare pod which has also a missile railing launcher,

built in for air to air missile. Seen it first time. Comment appreciated with which type of pod is it.
