JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 7]

CFT's have much less drag than the under-hung external tanks, besides CFT's don't necessarily have to be mounted above the wings, they can be designed for any suitable place that results in least aerodynamic disturbances. We used under belly "Gondola" on Migs in 70's/80's for additional fuel
Yes I remember those on the F6 fighters...like this one:

Are there any plans to build an extended-range variant of the Ra'ad for the JF-17?

Raad1(350km) and 2 (550 km) have been integrated and will be mounted on it.
 
How does the Raad compare on size to the GB-500C, and the other big munitions shown there?

Raad may be slightly longer than GB-500C but the latter may be a little wider. Similar dimensions for both.
