R AVM Latif---No need for a higher numbers of BVR's---.
On this the AVM Latif is wrong, wrong and more wrong. All other institutions of all other air arms see the need to have the flexibility of having more BVR AAMs on their platforms, hence the proliferation of the ability to have multiple salvo capabity(F15X has 16 BVRs !!!). I trust the general direction and collective institutional decision making of an aggregate of air arms more than the word of one individual.
PAF made a mistake on the number of BVRs on the JF17, as did the former AMV Latif. The mistake in this decision on the number of BVRs required on the JF17 is something that has to be addressed asap......
Just look at how many BVRs PAF 16s are using on CAP missions !!!!!! On most occassions i count 4 AAMs on the platform. I get that JF17 is meant to be light, but it still under equipped to fight a meaninful long range BVR fight...
AVM Latif is party to that mistake, and being a typical fighter pilot jockie, he is not going to admit he helped make a mistake ... He made some good decisions, but he also made some mistakes....
The J10 and JF17 Riveter---. Watch the link.

Hi,
It is not a mistake on the part of the AVM---. Two BVR's and two WVR are perfect for this aircraft in its current configuration---size and utility---.
These aircraft will hardly be able to fire two BVR's before they try to buzz out of the combat arena---and as it has been assessed by the americans that most fighter aircraft would die without launching any of their BVR missile load---.
And we have the example of two enemy aircraft in front of us---.
They are now cleared for SD10s.Since no additional hard points on jf except under intake/s it would be nice if wingtip launcher are uprated to carry sd-10s on block 3 ??? ???
U are talking about Wing tip launchers of Block 3?They are now cleared for SD10s.

Are u talking about JF 17 thunder as that fighter aircraft against IAF?most fighter aircraft would die without launching any of their BVR missile load--
I think we have had this conversation multiple times. If SL is wrong then why has Sohail Aman and Mujahid Anwar not rectified this mistake? the JFT has undergone 2cycles of revisons and yet the hardpoints remain the same. 4 +2 is the best Ato A configuration we will ever have and anyone going for more will end up jettisoning a lot of weapons when a BVRcomes in their general directions. Case in point do you recall the Typhoon giving a demo fully loaded. in Farnborough. It was noted that it maneouvered like a brick in spite of having humongous raw power. We dont need that adue to the viscinity of out FOBs.On this the AVM Latif is wrong, wrong and more wrong.

Yes and yes for block 3. As per Madam @messiach the institution of full axis FBW has removed hinderances to the use of SD10 from wing tip rail so it can be launched from 1 and ?8 HHPs.U are talking about Wing tip launchers of Block 3?

Oh. But the prime BVR for Block 3 would be PL 15. Can that be launched from Wingtip?I think we have had this conversation multiple times.

It is the same argument of having 2 or 3 stops in a Formula 1 racing. I rmember when Schumacher was driving he would often device a 3 stop strategy and still win the race in spite of his Ferari beuing slower than theMercedez of his opponents.

They need a medium/heavy-weight fighter jet.But according to the fan boys, it does not matter what the AVM says or thinks or the experts in PAF says, they want more hardpoints, bigger engines and what not because these fanboys know MUCH more than PAF.
4 BVRs under the wings. 2 WVRs/BVRs on the wingtip. 2 Fuel tanks under the wings and 1 on centerline. 1 pod on the chin. I want 10 HardpointsBut according to the fan boys, it does not matter what the AVM says or thinks or the experts in PAF says, they want more hardpoints, bigger engines and what not because these fanboys know MUCH more than PAF.

What the another one gonna do?let another JF-17 in line take over
