And how can they pump 5KWt of energy (F-35 radar energetic capacity) through such a small antenna? :)
And where will they get such a huge energy stream, especially using single RD-93 gearbox? :)

Pak is succeed in selling its JF17 on junk price to Nigeria Air force on Just 5 Million a Piece.
Presumably the true price is higher .. the sale of the first 3 J17s for 16 million dollar is part of a more complex agreement.

JF-17 on sale for Nigeria
date: 1/19/2017

With the release of the Appropriation Act 2016, the Federal defense appropriations financial document presented in the first week of January, the Nigerian Government has made public the expenses for the acquisition of weapon systems ordered last year and over in 2017. Among these, there is no doubt that for the purchase of 3 fighter JF-17 THUNDER Block I, not so much because this is the first export for sino-Pakistani aircraft – after the Sri Lankan order cancellations and waiting to see what will become of that Burmese-and the ridiculous amount spent by the Nigerian Government for such acquisition: 5 billion naira , equal to just under 16 million. It is true that the last Apropriation Act provides for an appropriation of $68.37 million (21.6 billion naira) under the generic entry "aircraft acquisition," sum that would quietly not only buying but also maintenance, logistical and training support required, but it is likely that a portion of this figure is destined for other acquisitions. Specifically, Nigeria is planning to acquire 12 attack helicopters Mi-35 m HIND 3 EMB-314 SUPER TUCANO and at least-the latter bought from Brazil because of the veto of the outgoing administration Obama against the sale to Nigeria of new military aircraft, veto that led to the cancellation of the ALPHA JET replacement program with the A-29 SUPER TUCANO products from Sierra Nevada in its plant in Jacksonville Florida (configuration of aircraft adopted by the Afghan air force). Returning to JF-17-which according to Nigerian programs should be a couple of squadrons (at least 25 aircraft) at the airbase of Yola — just the purchase of the first 2 HIND, for which there is an appropriation of EUR 34 million (17 for exemplary), has given rise to doubts concerning the price of 3 sino-pakistani fighter. One possible interpretation could be linked to the purely financial aspects. The signing of the MoU with the CAP (Pakistan Aeronautical Complex) for the acquisition of the JF-17-10 and SUPER MUSHSHAK MFI-395 primary trainers, 4 of which were already delivered-which took place last September, envisaged a total outlay of 7.06 billion Nigerian naira, equivalent to 26 million dollars, according to the exchange rate at that time. Is it possible, then, that after the umpteenth Nigerian currency devaluation (which since last June 23 has lost 35 percent of its value against the dollar), the equivalent in dollars of the total cost of the operation will be greatly reduced. Another possible explanation-that this is new equipment and not former Pakistani air force-could be related to a simple amortization schedule of payment. Nigeria, namely, may have paid these 15.78 million for the purchase and delivery of only aircraft, while the costs of the support package would be covered by subsequent annual payments. This hypothesis can be supported by close collaboration in the defence sector which in recent years has created between Nigeria and Pakistan. It would be enough to remember the role that Pakistan has had and continues to have in maintaining in service of the F-7 Nigerians (Chinese version of the MiG-21F-13 FISHBED), or training support for Nigerian crew training, provided in the order of SUPER MUSHSHAK, which will see the redeployment of pakistani pilots flying school at 301° Kaduna.

15 Million $ is initial allotment, Nigeria will pay second allotment of 70 Million $ in this year, For 3 Jf-17 Thunder Block-2 will cost almost 85 million U.S dollars to Nigeria. But people needs to know about infamous deals with Nigeria like the Jaguar deal and took almost a decade for Nigeria to get their L-39's after fully paying Aero via layaway system.

Myanmar in advanced negotiations to licence-build JF-17 fighter

After deciding to purchase 16 JF-17 Thunder multi-role combat aircraft in 2015, Myanmar is now in advanced negotiations with Pakistan to also licence-build the third-generation fighter, defence industry sources in Yangon and sources close to the Myanmar Air Force (MAF) told Jane's in mid-January.

If an agreement is reached, Myanmar's bid to manufacture the single-engine combat aircraft - co-developed by the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) and China's Chengdu Aerospace Corporation (CAC) - could mark a significant step forward in the country's efforts to expand its local defence industry.

As the MAF phases out its obsolete fleet of F-7M Airguard and A-5C 'Fantan' combat aircraft purchased from China in the 1990s, licensed production of the JF-17 Thunder would also mean that the aircraft will likely become the MAF's workhorse over the coming decades in much the same way as it has moved to prominence within the Pakistan Air Force (PAF).

At least 70 of the fighters are in service with the PAF, with the first ones having entered service in 2009. Expectations are that the PAF will induct up to 150 JF-17 Thunder fighters in the coming years.

The first of 16 imported JF-17s ordered by Myanmar are expected to go into service with the MAF later this year. Speaking on condition of anonymity, sources told Jane's that these aircraft will be of the Block II variant, which was first rolled out from the PAC's Kamra plant in 2015 and which, unlike the Block I variant, features an air-to-air refuelling capability and improved avionics and electronics.

It is unclear whether later deliveries to the MAF will include the far more advanced Block III variant being produced at Kamra since last year. Sources told Jane's that in the context of ongoing negotiations on licensed production, Myanmar is seeking to produce the aircraft's Block III variant.

Looks like Paki's are planning to arm Myanmar with there aircrap JF-17s. Interesting bit is that everybody is falling for this crap jet especially the third world countries. Pak ese bech raha hai jaise underwear or baniyaan :dude: Good for us, these will fall like fly's albeit cheap planes have strength in numbers statistically, which is why there strategy to arm PAF with 150 of these. As far as Myanmar goes, I smell chinkies infiltrating there lookalikes :biggrin2:, but them building the block 3 o_O
