JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 7]

What a gorgeous picture! Probably the best picture of JF-17. I hope it is not photoshoped. Where is @Deino ?

It is time the PAF unshrouded the JF17 BLK3 and bombarded the internet and defence exhibitions around the world with pictures and video grabs as beautiful as this one - with maximum weapon load. @Bilal Khan (Quwa)

IMO it is clearly a real one … and I’m still here, but a bit exhausted after finishing my latest book 😉

IMPORTANCE OF AIR POWER OVER THE SEA

Air power however is essential in both Green-Water and Blue-Water navies, and plays a crucial role in the information war that lie beneath maritime operations.
Air power is an essential component in maritime warfare. However, all depends on how these resources are allotted and utilized in a hostile environment, which brings out the best of an armed force.

A Centric Warfare Capability will always dominate against independent platforms and incomplete strike groups.

Not many ships that come into range of this can survive.

This is hell of a load out
A 2-ship JF-17 flight can definitely cause a surface action group with 2-3 ships mixed frigate - destroyer or corvette class some worry but a larger battlegroup especially with what IN is equipped/equipping with can easily knock out 4 C-802s.

It also means the JF-17s are bugging out fast because they have no loiter capability unless they tank before heading home.

A better combination against larger groups is having a 4 ship mix with C-802s and CM-400s doing a multi axis attack. That is 8 missiles following different paths and attack parameters.

Even smarter moved would be a back up pair launching decoy systems (Turbojet slapped with a basic GPS guidance) and emitters to get the ship guidance and system confused.

Current pattern is to target 1 ship with 2 missiles approaching from different angles. So a 4 ship will require 4-5 JF17 to engage.
