Syrian shows off its MiG-29 (Russia's counterpart of F-18)

[Yongpeng Sun-Tastaufen]

The F-16 is a medium weight fighter jet while the JF-17 is a light weight Fighter jet..Conclude something from this.. about the engine and the weight..

JF-17 eventually replace F-16.

JF-17 eventually replace F-16.

No, you fool JF-17 is not to replace F-16 in PAF but other light weight jets like Mirages/F-7 in PAF, and JF-17 is always complementary for PAF's F-16 in future Project AZM replaces PAF's F-16

F-16 ain't gonna last forever. Maybe 10 more years tops.

The F-16 will be around long after the last Mig-29/MiG-35 stops flying.

This technical comparison means nothing in war. American tech is far superior and its has proved several times. The Russian BVRs dont even go as far as they are rated to be.

it did matter for US when they choose f-22 over yf-23...
Russians mostly sell their weapons to poor and incompetent customers otherwise there is no problem with their equipment.

Nop. Only Russian engines have 3D thrust vectoring. Russian frigates and corvettes have AESA. Only Zumwalt destroyer has AESA in US navy.

And maintenance prone and have low MTBO between complete overhaul as compare to western engines

Russian jet engines are far easier to service than US engines.

That's because India is backwater. More competent military like Egypt are much better at operating MiG-29.

overall Russian engines are quite backward in the terms of maintenance and MTBO, and India has more resources and much closer of Russia than Egypt you fool

don't troll, and stick to the topic, this not change the fact that Russian engine/Avionics sucks in comparison of western engines like P&W f-119/P&W F-135/EJ-200/M-88 etc etc
