Thanks for clearing cuz i dont know what is going on here , this time budget has increased and for last 2 years there are talks of j10 ! and now when budget increased. than last year "it is impossible" that is one Crazy statement. Fatman's saying right it's not like we are to buy Fleet of j10 in one payment, Everyone pays installments and i said it before that , PAF pilots have actually 1 that i know has said , i dont think we are really in hurry to buy j10 we are fine now. The PAF pilots have had exercise with PLAAF and they have compared performances and are happy with jf17.By Usman ANSARI
sorry but this guy is 'crap**a!
One high-profile Air Force procurement project, the FC-20, a Pakistani-specific variant of the Chinese Chengdu J-10 Vigorous Dragon multirole fighter, may be adversely affected by the poor economic and political climate, he said.
Tufail said proceeding with this procurement is “far-fetched for the present.”
the payment for the J-10 system will not be made in one year, but will be spread over 'several' years to mitigate the impact on the PAF budget. the budget for PAF is going up for 2012-13 to cater for the induction of the 2nd tranche of JFT-blk-2 (50 a/c).
Technical knowledge, " some aircrafts are designed to carry 5000 kg of external payload , however to increase the payload the new composite material is added that increase for example 1000kg more payload but the cost of that material is thrice the previous composite material." Avionics wise there is not much of difference b/w jf17 and j10 no matter what u say about cost , the j10 has different engine and composites but avionics are same in both the aircraft , no matter what jf17.com says (it's unofficial) anyway the jf17 carries klj10 version of jf17 (klj7) the disk is small but everything is same the disk has decreased range for 5m^2 to 109km exact however with Active homing four bvr's and with sem active 2. and the EW suite JF17 has on tail tip is Different and powerful The development cost defines the fly away cost per unit , j10 cost of development is different . jf17 was made by only 500 mn $ why ? because it was based on the experience of PAF f16 and F7pg . There is diamond shaped jf17 as experiment for block 2 and 3 which media has no proof but it exist. However Jf17 of Pakistan airforce is cheap because it's development was cheap and easy manufacturing compared to western counterparts. and j10 initial program fund was 550 million $. in 2002-3 PAF was going to buy Mirage 2000 Hell i dont know what variant , because in 2002 PAF didnt expect Jf17 to be a so competent fighter but later when it rolled out the details and visiting of the Airforce for full testing phase impressed and shocked some that F16 mlu on bases of Avionics was no match for jf17. However Pakistan airforce is so secretive that no one knows the true capability of the fighter. What any1 is just half of it. my friend in PAF believes that the export variant wont be like jf17 of PAF but ofcourse the less. In the end i would say only one thing guys Hope for the Best expect the worst, even if we won't get FC-20 that means we already have something to deal with our enemies.
