Who is gifting who this :cheesy:

Are j-15s coming to PN air branch?
 
The picture of the JF17 is showing the aircraft carrying 4 SD-10s...... interesting, or just a mistake by the model maker ??? It is a Block 1 model given the serial number .

Technically the JF-17 can carry four SD-10 Missiles but then there's no provision for drop tanks.

True all pylons have the necessary data bus but Blk-2 can carry only 2 BVR missiles at this time.

There is a interview by a PAF project manager stating when asked on number of SD-10s per loadout in JF-17 Blk-2 and he replied yes its possible to increase the BVR carrying capability but PAF feels two SD-10s are enough which is why the JF-17 has the ability to carry only two SD-10s at a time.

Reason which I think for this is that the KLJ-7V2 can only guide 2BVRs at a time. With better radar option becoming available with Blk-3 we will hopefully see JF-17 with 4 BVR armed load out.

"The radar can reportedly manage up to 40 targets, monitor up to 10 of them in Track-While-Scan (TWS) mode and can engage two targets simultaneously at BVR"
