Shaheen VII Train Together Fight Together (Video)

Amongst all other platforms, the JH-7 is probably the only dedicated bomber/strike aircraft, some compare it to the American F-111 Bomber....it's also an ideal 'wild weasel' platform, i understand in current exercise it was deployed for maritime strike missions with PAF personal in the back seat.

Thank you. Insightful.

I don't think so since it's performance quite close to JF-17 hence China will not induct JF-17 because of same reason so the PAF.

Nope J 10C is comparable to F 16 Block 52 plus
And it's medium cat fighter JFT is light weight there's a difference and a big one.

 

[Windjammer]

There may have not been any F-16s as part of the exercise but there were certainly some senior Block-52 operators participating.

 

[Umair Nawaz]

which AWACS?

Apparently PLAAF contingent consisted of 18 fighter jets including, J-11, J-10C and JH-7 as well as AWACS and other supporting elements.

which AWACS?

KJ-500 and KJ-200

Not even close.

 

[JohnWick]

Not even close.

So what's the reason than?

Reason for what?

 

[JohnWick]

Reason for what?

Not inducting.JF-17?

 

[Akasa]

Not inducting.JF-17?

Its capabilities are superseded by the likes of the J-10A. Inducting the JF-17 would be redundant and might cause logistical issues.

Actually your big arsenal of J-6J-7 and J-8is need to be replaced by jft like fighter.

An air force retires its old platforms by inducting new platforms and having them "trickle down" to these units over time; rarely is an entirely-new platform inducted just for the sake of replacing old hardware at a cheap cost.
