    Each missile carried on extrenal pylons adds about 0.5msq RCS to the ac RCS. The value for MICA is a bit low as it is not a complete cylindrical missile like AMRAAM-120 or AIM-9x.

    JF-17 Thunder / FC-1 Xiaolong

    I am not impressed with bombing run of JF-17s. using pull up attack to release bombs in a dive attack is stupid now-a-days. We did that long long back in Hunters.

    All JF-17s will be third rate blk-1s and no blk-2 or blk-3 till they deliver on repayement. The boundary talks between India and china have reached a conclusive phase.
