Is the Design/Airframe going to be the same or change?

for block 3 i am interested
whether an IRST and additional hrdpoints will come
whther the rd 93 MA or chinese new variant will find space
whther CFT or increase fuel will be added
in short whther it would be a simple update or a whole new gripen NG like update
for 2 years delay i am hoping its the later, PAF is not getting f-16s any more, we know that, so it needs a more comprehensive update
Dual seats and good simulators can help reduce the airframe hours across the fleet. That is how the Jews use their F-16 dual seaters. Also, they reduce the cost per hour for keeping their F-15 pilots trained by getting part of their flight hours on simulators and F-16 dual seaters.
Based on JF-17B as per various senior members here on PDF, and why you think its design will change, if design will change there will be no more JF-17 but becoming JF-19 or some thing like that because it will be structurally and mechanically different from JF-17, so why you think that BLOCK-3 design will change @Hassan GuyIs the Design/Airframe going to be the same or change?

Sir i would like to say MINOR CHANGES with the exception of Hornet to Super Hornet with major design changesHi,
F16, F15, F18 have many a changes---they still maintain their original names---.

I guess they would understand better if you tell them in terms of car (models widely available in Pakistan), every year Honda makes certain changes to its Honda Civic model and changes are both cosmetic (styling) and under the hood but it does not make it a different model, it remains the same... Actually Toyota Corolla is an even better example.Hi,

Exactly, multiple times I have to repeat our two year discussions on JF17 since they don't read the already available stuff and want to be fed each time.Hi,
Thank you---I have done that in the past many a times---. But for our pakistani kids---you have to explain it to each individual seperately when they enter the room.

All they need to know is that any structural and avionic changes that do not result in the role and category/class change of the aircraft do not warrant a new name or number. F-16C or F-16V may be very different from F-16A of the block 40's but it does not change its position in the USAF line up and keeps its role and class same.. a light to medium multi-role fighter,... No amount of changes in JF17's airframe will change that it is a lightweight multirole fighter....even if we increase the size by 10%.
