sir with most respect Lca is as gud as it is on paper , its still not in production phase thus not opretional yet. as far As Mk2 it is far far away probably 2030 or beyond
here we go again
Well the only reason I mentioned the block 2 was to show how fast the jf-17 program is moving, by the time the first LCA squadron is up and running, the block 2 aircraft may well be joining the air force as well...so essentially you are comparing an aircraft that is ahead in its technological development than the LCA.
The needs also differ greatly, the PAF needs the jf-17 to be a viable fighter, to take on mkis and the mrca's as they come over the border. The LCA will replace the mig-21 and be also used in the defensive role, but due to the Indo-Pak dynamic, the PAF offensives into India will be most likely be border incursions not very far into Indian territory since the Pakistanis will always be forced to fight a defensive war due to India's quantitative and qualitative advantages. In such circumstances, the jf-17 has been made increasingly more advanced since it would bear the brunt of Indian attacks in Pakistan, while the LCAs will probably get off far easier.
