I'm assuming the jf-17 was probably developed with su-30s in mind, thanks to China's privileged insight into the airframe, with the mkk and j-11s. None the less, as much as we all wish the thunder would solve all our troubles, I think comparing it to one of the most maneuverable fighters on the planet is a little premature, if not completely irresponsible.
ps. never realized the mki was that huge!! those things could be used as shelter for the homeless when they aren't flying! (no offense intended)
