It is rare to see the data written on the JF17 AESA advanced radar. It is a pleasant surprise. Its working band is around 10GHZ X band, working bandwidth is up to 3GHZ, and its fractional bandwidth FBW reaches 0.3 level, which exceeds the 0.25 required by ultra-wideband radar. Such a large...

To be precise, it is a frontline fighter. In that era, all aircraft were pursuing higher speed and higher altitude. The Soviet interceptor should be su17.

No, at first it was the J7 upgrade plan, also called the Super Seven Plan. Pakistan provided funding, the United States provided the engine, and China and the United States jointly designed it. However, after the Cold War, the United States Grumman withdrew from the plan, and then Pakistan also...

If the JF17 is designed as an interceptor, it will not use a large side wing similar to the F18. It is only to protect the Pakistani ground forces. In fact, LCA pays more attention to interception performance.

When you choose an aircraft, you can’t just consider the performance of the aircraft. Although JF17 has excellent low-altitude subsonic performance, it has poor climb performance. When a war with India breaks out, India will organize su30 raids to the rear of Pakistan. At this time, a supersonic...

Do you know how black smoke is produced? RD33 uses a centrifugal nozzle. The engine is in a fuel-rich combustion state during low-altitude flight. At this time, the fuel supply is sufficient and the atomization quality is good, most of which are small-diameter oil droplets. However, the small...

In fact, the performance of RD33 is better than that of F404. The red is the thrust curve of F404, and the black is the thrust curve of RD33. The high-altitude performance of РD33 is outstanding. Compared with F404, the high-altitude thrust is obviously better than the latter. It can be seen...

The gas turbine engine used in supersonic aircraft needs to inhale air to work. However, the engine can only inhale subsonic gas, and direct inhalation of supersonic airflow will cause the engine blades to tremble and damage. Therefore, we need a supersonic inlet (the blue part in the figure...

What you are talking about is the fixed baffle inlet, it is better to use the shock wave inlet on the M2000

This is not a normal aircraft development process, sir

I took a closer look and found that LCA is an ordinary fixed baffle air inlet. Indeed, LCA is a double delta wing to be precise. It has improved low-speed performance, low wing load, statically unstable design, fly-by-wire flight control, all It is the standard configuration of the...

J10's instantaneous directivity, agility, and roll are better than F16, continuous hovering ability, thrust-to-weight ratio, not as good as F16

For now, tejas mk2 will first fly in 2023. Even if everything goes smoothly into service in India, it will be 2027 for the formation of IOC.

Doesn't M2000 change radar?

The air combat capability of J10C is about the same as that of F16V. Has M2000 been upgraded in India? In 2019, those M2000s did not seem to have been upgraded.

J10 is okay, 55 million US dollars-60 million US dollars

LCA It uses a tailless delta wing, a small aspect ratio and an upper fixed air inlet. You don't understand if it is too complicated. The common point of these three designs is simplicity. The last one to use a tailless delta wing was Mirage 2000. It was in service in 1982. Since then, there has...

Let me talk about the military exercises between China and Thailand in 2015. China dispatched j11a, that is, the su27sk assembled by China. The n001 radar is obviously inferior to the ps5a of Thailand, If China sends j11b and 1493 radar performance is similar to apg63 (V1), BVR will not fail,

The question about the reliability of the J10 is groundless. There is a problem with the AL31 bearing lubricator. At present, nine J10s have been crashed in China, and eight of them were AL31 failures. The price of China’s J10 is cheap, and China alone can only have enough for one J10C about $40...

Yes, JF17 has a small range and a small radar diameter, but JF17 does not need to fight in the vast South China Sea. Pakistan is relatively small. It only needs to fight on a narrow border. The same is true for LCA.
