    Block 2 upgrades are 10-15 years away. Why is radar selection happening now?

    Source? I read in a reputed source (though old) that JF17 uses triple channel FBW. No FBW in yaw axis?

    Jf17s FCS is still analog, meaning it does little more than translating pilot's commands to commands given to control surfaces. Since it lacks the capability to collect data from sensors around the aircraft, I doubt it will be effective in dealing with asymmetrical weight. One can't comment on...

    Isn't the capacity of a centerline pylon considered equal to that of wet pylon under the wings on a JF17. If so, then why is C802 not carried on the centerline pylon? Why disturb the symmetry?

    That arithmetic calculation is baseless since all 49 have joined the fleet one by one. Since you are claiming that a single engine has flown 7000 hrs in six years, maybe you mean that the airframe life of JF17 airframe is 35000 hrs taking service life of 30 years. Is it?

    You are talking about 7000 hrs in 6 years, thats over a thousand hrs per annum. These figures are incredulous. Normal flight hrs clocked are 150-200 per annum. Even an airframe would be done for in 7000 hrs. He is probably talking about all engines combined rather than a single engine. Whole...

    Trolls seem to be getting weird satisfaction in disparaging the product of others.

    Sorry about that, it was in capitals so I misunderstood. Thats why I said we might get HMD on Rafale. I am not sure about that. HMS is sure.

    US is giving us nothing. We will be using Israel supplied HMD on LCA. French don't have an HMD on Rafale, although it is possible we are getting it on our Rafale.

    Thats actually quite an old image if I remember correctly, sometime around 2010-2011. Wouldn't you agree? There is no new news regarding HMD on JF17

    You said IRIS-T was available but you chose MAA-1B. Why would PAF do that?

    @Blackwater Actually the sentence I read went something like this From this I concluded that MKI is more difficult to handle than Jaguars and Mirages. This was published in an article on Tejas in some defence magazine and the author was a former IAF pilot himself. I tried finding it last...

    IRIS-T is considered to be fifth gen missile while MAA-1B, as you posted is only fourth gen, how did you find MAA-1B better?
