You can put lipstick on a pig, doesn't mean it becomes a pretty woman.

she's gonna make you eat those words...

The rare occasions when the JF-17 looks cool...
The PAF pilot is making a better hand gesture rather than waving like some commercial pilot.

It would seem the JF-17 have been carrying out PGM strikes on ISWAP without making a fuss about it. It could very well have made the single biggest impact so far. Its the only platform in the NAF with PGMs, besides the A-29 and Wing loong drones/CH-4 drones.

Does anyone know what "vital role" and "scenarios" were played out? Even a post ops briefing that's usually public.....?

Hi ladies and gentlemen,
Now that we know that there aren't any significant structural changes in the block 3... ( Please stop fighting over this )... Can we look forward to the future of the
thunder program. ?
> is there going to be a block 4 ?
> is it going to have a chinese engine or a continue with the russian rd 93 series ?
My personal favorite is the f-16 XL derivative of the f-16 fighting falcon.

It drastically enhanced the capability of the F-16 and lost to the F-15 contract only due to less survivability ( a single engine ).
Wouldn't this direction be a great path for the JF-17 thunder program ?

Possible comeback of f-16XL as the F-16 kingsnake ?

Not going to happen after block-3 there will be no more block 4 according to one former ACM of PAF we will be going to 5th gen project AZM @Iron Shrappenel

PS: In real scenario, Rafale won't even know that F-22 is there / was there.

F22 and F35 are high IR emitters. At medium range (in the 40 to 50km max range) they can be IR detected.

No Such thing has happened. Lol.
Thats a Russian model anyways.

But block 3 is not the end of the Thunder project, there’s so much work going on for it’s components that it’s hard to believe block 3 is the end, and no, afaik CAS has not confirmed block 3 being the end of the JF line.
