Pakistan eyes 62 JF-17 jets from China as Rafale dogfight continues in India

reports confuses co production with Chinese production.i think its about asking china to built it portion of parts
block 3 first couple being built in china means significant changes in airframe
 
Yes, India have no answer of Pakistan home grown industries and India is imported superpower only

@MilSpec

Read carefully between the lines. They consider imports from China as indigenous. So they have already prepared themselves for East India Company 2.0.

JF17 is a matter of national pride for most here, so best left alone here. Objectivity went out of the door here long back.
 
There are 100+ JF thunder already operational
corrections...150+ JF Thunders.

While the opposition is targeting the NDA government on the Rafal fighter plane deal, neighbouring Pakistan is engaged in taking full advantage of the opportunity. The Pakistani government has approached China to make the JF-17 (Block 3) Jet fighter plane available for the Pakistani Air Force (PAF) as soon as possible.

According to the Indian Air Force (IAF) intelligence report accessed by Zee News, the Pakistani Air Force is in the process of adding 62 JF-17 jets before India gets the 36 Rafale jets . As per the agreement with Dassault Aviation of France, the delivery of Rafale jets will commence from 2020.

Pakistan’s JF-17 is a Multi Combat Aircraft which is jointly developed by Pakistan’s Aeronautical Complex and China’s Chengdu Aircraft Corporation. The Pakistani government is keen to induct most advanced version of JF-17 series — the new JF-17 Block-3 — to make its air force match its Indian counterpart.

According to the report, Pakistan has asked Chengdu Aircraft Corporation of China to deliver 13 JF-17 (Block 2) to Pakistani Air Force by July 2019. They have also asked the Chinese firm to deliver the more advanced two seater- JF-17 Block-2 jets by 2020. Pakistani Air Force plans to induct 22 JF-17 (Block-2) jets before 2020.

According to intelligence reports, Pakistan and China are also jointly developing JF-17 (Block-3) jets which is a fourth generation fighter jet. Pakistani Air Force is expecting the new variants of JF-17 (Block-3) to be delivered from 2020 which will be more powerful than the already existing JF-17 series. Pakistan plans to induct 28 new JF-17 (Block-3) till 2022.

As per the intelligence report, two JF-17 (Block-3) jets would be delivered by China’s Chengdu Aircraft Corporation and the remaining 26 will be made in Pakistan.

JF-17 (Block-3) has feature of avionics advancement such as helmet display and sight system, a new single panel multi-functional display, an active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar paired with an infrared search and track system. JF-17 (Block-3) will have cockpit with a flight control stick on the side and a two seater cockpit option with a top speed of 2.00 plus mach.

While the Indian Air Force requires a total of 126 new Medium Multi Role Combat Aircraft (MMRCA) plane, it will only be getting 36 Rafale jets by 2020. With Pakistan upping its efforts in getting the 62 new jets for its air force, the Indian Air Force seems to be looking at a tough challenge ahead.

The IAF has been upset over the lack of fighter planes. During an interaction between Indo-Russia Air Force Exercise Avendra in Jodhpur in December last month, IAF Chief Air Chief Marshal Birender Singh Dhanoa had said that there should be no politics in matters of security. The country needs a powerful fighter jet like Rafale. The IAF, which currently has 31 Squadron, is in an immediate need of 45 Squadrons.

The Indian Air Force has around 1700 aircraft while Pakistan has 890 and China has 3000 planes. In such a situation, India may have to face the massive challenges with Pakistan and China in case of war.
Indian mastered the art of farting without fighting...period...

Few things
Pakistan is a partner in the project, so whatever China does is also what pakistan demands. It's a joint project nothing is done by one country alone. Otherwise very balanced article from an Indian source, good job
 
LOL that number in the article is pure garbage in 2019 we shall start recieving BLOCK 3 of JF 17 thunder.

by 2022 JF 17 programe would have around 50+ Block 3 verions of JF 17.

also why sudden fear by india :P rafale is not supposed to fight jf 17, pakistan has other big plans for the likes of rafale and fifth gen indian aircraft. jf 17 is merely there replacing ageing fleet of gen 3 fighters and multirole aircraft like mirage, q5, f7s etc.

india was supposed to fight jf 17 with tejas, not rafale i wonder what happened with that plan. we would only have 300 jf 17 thunders i think tejas could take care of them like u indians used to say.

we got bigger fish to fry next the Su-35 and rafale of indian airforce. plans are under way for 2025. i smell fear and anxiety in the indian armed forces... isn't S400 anti aircraft sam suppose to give you a bit of peace??? have some peace in mind. u got s400 and great rafale also u getting fifth gen aircraft soon. dont go scared shitless..

i think the article seems accurate..it states 62 aircarft which means 12bII +50 bIII firm order۔۔rafale will comw from 2020-2023 pretty much time frame for above 62 aircraft

It seems a leak intelligence report not an article othwerise it would have been labelled " thunder a blunder, why is Pakistan inducting junk"

jf 17 thunder versions and inductions were planned in 2001-2010 i dont think our airforce plans to use jf 17 against squadrons of rafale from france. there is a better asset appearing to tackle the likes of rafale and su-35.
