Second JF-17B Prototype with more composite material undergoing flight tests

That is indeed the best attitude

those top brass in CAC shall have the same attitude. those state own enterprise shall reform.

SS flight is fundamentally different from SubS flight. In SS flight turbulence becomes less of a hurdle than control of shockwave from leading edges & consequent acute BLayer seperation & post-shockwave stall. An intelligent solution was LERX without rectangular intakes. FC1 is therefore fundamentally different from FA-18 or F-22.

Hi,

I will settle for this answer---but I was looking for the difference in the A & B---.

why they didnt use the canopy open design like F16or J10S?

Hi,

For a two seater---the side opening in easier to get in and out of---.

Indeed the first two pictures are clear

Side opening canopies are less complex and weigh far less then backward opening ones as on F-16s or F-15s etc. So for smaller aircraft, it makes sense to go with the lighter, simpler solution.

So you do agree that they are hinges and nothing else on JF-17B @snow lake

 

[GriffinsRule]

A better canopy design by the Swedes ... the hinges are visible but have been engineered in a way that they don't protrude out like an eye sore and certainly better for radar returns.

Jf17 hinge is placed on the inside of the canopy. Why would sharp edges be on the outside and 2hat sharp edge does a hinge have. The first two aircraft are not jf17

LOL im comparing t 2 Jets hinges JL-9 and JF-17B you may be blind look yourself @snow lake

JL-9

JF-17B

Are you blind or something @snow lake ​

@wanglaokan

maybe budget problem, we have invisible hinge design on JL10

Yep. Similar to this:

Why don't you agree every senior members agree that those are HINGES, give us a fair reasons that why you thinks that those are not HINGES and basic job of JF-17B is/will Conversion trainer/LIFT just like F-16 -B and D @snow lake

My dear brother.

Basically simple straight forward hinges on jf-17b vs servo type used by jas-39 and rafeal
