JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 7]

[MIRauf]

For Additional AAM load, the answer may very well be in adopting the F-15 Style inner most Wing Pylon. Height of the inner most seems almost identical to F-15s Pylon. Since JF-17 isn't as massive as F-15, single weapon (AAM) should suffice.

Does any have any photos of 249 and 250 or can anyone please confirm their full serial number.

All I am looking for is what year these two planes belong to, please.

Beautiful! Reminds me of the Streak Eagle, ready to break some sort speed/altitude records.

What the poster says exactly? and FC-1 picture seems to be static display model without any mention of JF-17 Thunder? or is it one of the earlier PT models?

Nuke?

How could a cylindrical object be a conformal fuel tank?

 

[Zulfiqar]

nope ....

I figured the same. Thunder's fuel tanks are different.

My wishful thinking is that it is some sort of new jammer akin to below ones. However, it won't be lying down like that if it were.

Most probably something else.

IMO clearly a model - and even a bad one - made to depict the pt. 04 but look at the landing gear, the radome (esp. its shape) and the canopy, that's never a real Thunder.

That's one big jammer.
Which one is it???
