ask them the availibility rates of jf 17 (it uses the worser version of rd 33 our mig which were at 15-30% at worst during 2010-2014 ) if this 30% rate is applied then net availibility of jf17 = 46 fighter at any given point of time (total=156 in pak)

I know I just saw many pakis at once claiming so.
I have been asking from yesterday are those sdr ,vhf indigeneous or not

ASPJ pod is a part of the Tejas Mk1A kit.

Man build quality is so top notch unlike Junk Soviet Russo crap.

Guys I have serious question regarding mk1A like why does it have thise pitot tube on it's nose.
Aesa radars don't have it one the nose..
It affects AESA radars. Looks like the radome isn't delivered yet..
AESA radars have been delivered I guess

Please immediately inform Lockheed Martin since their F-16 Block 70 (also called V) has the pitot probe as well.

First Slovak AF F-16V

There are some losses associated with the pitot probe and the wiring for it that goes through the radome but there is no cardinal rule that there can't be a pitot probe on the nose if the fighter has an AESA radar inside.

SDR is from Rafael. As we previously bought after Balakot and got liking of it.

I believe FOC is 7070kg(around 7 tons )
And ioc was ~7500kg.
Here is screenshot from CAG report of 2015 claiming it was overweight by 1 ton..
We can say 1 ton weight has been reduced now.. many components were over engineered it took such huge amount of time, data which from those 5000-6000hrs flights of Tejas..

The specification was 5800 kgs. So it went up to 6800 kgs, which is almost the same as the empty weight of a Gripen C.

.
I think it's "airflow increased for certain angles while turning".
During routine flights engine will perform as usual.

i think tejas also have much more wing area cause it lacks cannards that are present in gripen

 

[Hari Sud]

Let them Cope

Let them cope is defeatist tendency. Encounter them with equally vicious propaganda against JF-17.

Let us talk about what we have not what Gripen or other planes have. Rejoice, what we have!
