PAF JF-17 Thunder along F-16 to participate in Izmir Air Show in Turkey

Its a nice move by china and pakistan. The Display may get some customers for JF17. I wish India too should send it LCA in airshow. These kind of airshow make the environment for export..

because if India is interested in Rafael . . . . .

than its not good to send JFT there they can learn about the RCS of the aircraft. detection range by Rafael radar and other things . . .

and french are hungry for the Rafael orders, and they can do any thing and get down to any level for this . . . . .

so in my point of view its better to not to send JFT there . . . .


you cann't control the information. consider this, once the JF-17 is open for other countries for sale then what control or say can you have?
if the buyers of the Chinese JF-17 are also the customers of French and good friends with India then whats stopping them from having a look at this plane?

did the US restrictions stop Pakistan and China from the Alleged F-16 inspection by the Chinese? a lot of information can be gathered even by amateur video if someone lives ner the base and records the flights of these planes. A more dedicated one can use specialist equipment to do it on a roof top of a rented house very easily.
There is nothing so novel, mysterious or revolutionary about this plane so PAF shouldn’t loose their sleep over it if India finds out anything. Engine is Russian, the Equipment and weapons are Chinese and the flag on the tail is Pakistani whats more to know?

I doubt that a nation would by the LCA for the commercial price and US engine. It will me a headache in upgrades or even maintenance since India is not fully 100% supporting the project. But it would be nice to see the plane perform. I think it cannot perform like the JF17 but anything that flies has my admiration.
 
For over a 25 year old air frame, the performing F-16 looks in a good nick.
Remember guys, this particular aircraft is from the original 40 batch received in the early 80s, and haven't been through any upgrades yet. !!
 
JF 17 looks real mean.. If the canopy is raised a little bit more, would look even better ...
