Hi guy's last year i have heard that PAF oder 8 advance jet trainer, my question is , are they JL-9,L-15 or k-8P? thanks in advance
This is likely for extended range purposes.
This could mean a couple of things: (1) the JL-9 does not possess air to air refueling capability, or (2) the JL-9 is viewed as a basis of an attack variant.
IGuizhou JL-9/FTC-2000 Mountain Eagle is a two seater: the second seat is usually at the expense of internal fuel. CFT's would make fuel load equal to a (potential) single seat variant, without loss of under wing armament stations. More interesting IMHO is the arresting hook: if you want to fly over sea from a carrier, with limited aerial refueling options compared to with land based operations, having a greater fuel reserve is a plus.
