JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 7]

[Ultima Thule]

Good job.
Everything else is the same. Except the vertical stabiliser, which seems to be moved backwards in Thunder B.

ALSO WING AREA IS ALSO INCREASED IN JFT-B

Looking at the large shards of canopy glass, i doubt the safety of this ejection method?
These are pictures of Thunder B ejection tests in China.

The seat is designed to break the canopy. That's how it is in all modern fighters incase the canopy ejection system fails

Thunder B or any Thunder has no canopy ejection system i guess?

They are exactly the same size. Anyone with photo editing skills can measure them or try to cut pic of one and overlap it above the other to see if there is any size difference.

Count using the square division on the ground bro, Forgot KG mathematics?

Exactly the same, Single seater seams a but lengthier but insignificant

This is not how it happens normally. This is an extreme test simulating the condition if incase the canopy blaster does not work the pilot should still be able to eject. As the seat protrudes much higher than the pilots head, he would be safe.

Normally the canopy is blasted away frist in the sequence before the ejection seat rockets fire

ECM? or Telemetry Pod? @JamD

Seems like KG600 ECM pod.

I think so too.

ECM? or Telemetry Pod? @JamD

That's right, as above posts mentioned, its KG-600. But to me it looks a bit different from regular Chinese KG-600, if you notice PAF pods have firm oval head whereas Chinese KG-600 head shape is not oval. There's something fishy about PAF KG-600.

ECM? or Telemetry Pod? @JamD

It's known as Punjnad pod within PAF. Integrated with Jf17 fleet for past three years.

 

[HRK]

Punjnad pod

???

 

[The Eagle]

Punjnad

Panjnath may be.
