SarcasmNot much advanced , define much advanced
Block 1 and 2 are what can be considered "the basics" for a light multirole aircraft, they have access to guided munitions (both WVR and BVR), the engine is pretty much a slightly modified RD-33 (with some improvements). Again their avionics are the basics for what is a support aircraft, its not great but not terrible, in regards to its life cycle its not great, 3000hs for the airframe and 800/1200 for the engine (could be more) is mediocre when compared to other designs. The Block 3 is more of what the "proper version" is, having an AESA radar, access to more advanced weaponry and a complete revision fixing the problems of its predecessors (more powerful engine, and more airframe life). Still fairly limited, but its a step on the right direction.JFT Block-3 is much advanced than LCA Mk1A, true. But Block-1 is useless and Block-2 is trash.
Did they actually develop the aero, avionics or software and radar e.t.c or is it all Chinese bheek? They don't seem to have base to do anything from scratch as far as I knowthe Pakistanis settled with the Block 1 and made almost a 100 of them, although the aircraft was mediocre they settled with that and continued developing the B2 and B3, while the tejas did small series until they got the Mk.1A witch is in fact the "proper version" of the aircraft, with 83 ordered india could get deals for them and secure a more stable and respectable reputation.
As far as i know all avionics are Chinese, the only thing the Pakistanis produce are the Airframe and maybe other parts (hydraulics, landing gear, etc).Did they actually develop the aero, avionics or software and radar e.t.c or is it all Chinese bheek?

Ya, I don't think they have disciplines to create a culture at that level...even those may just be producing on tech rather than design their own and produce?As far as i know all avionics are Chinese, the only thing the Pakistanis produce are the Airframe and maybe other parts (hydraulics, landing gear, etc).
Considering that Pakistan lacks the funds to set the design and development of things like a Radar, RWR receivers and other electronic hi-tech that requieres years of work and millions of dollars, its easier for them to co-produce other parts (that are a lot simpler) while getting chinese electronics. Its a good deal for themYa, I don't think they have disciplines to create a culture at that level...even those may just be producing on tech rather than design their own and produce?
ya first US and now China, they are lucky one could say....no country in current world can adopt a hopeless scum country like Pakistan with 200 million people most of which are radicalized and can't read anything other than the rut they learn. Not even China can do that for long...Considering that Pakistan lacks the funds to set the design and development of things like a Radar, RWR receivers and other electronic hi-tech that requieres years of work and millions of dollars, its easier for them to co-produce other parts (that are a lot simpler) while getting chinese electronics.

Your sarcasm (assuming) aside.. If Block3 gets the 95kN engine then it'll have T/W ratio of 1.1!.. Meaning we'll have to wait until 110kN on MWF for us to match it.Not much advanced , define much advanced
And out of those 150, not even one came to counter Mirage 2000, Su 30 MKI or even Mig 21.Demeaning JF 17 won't do us any good..
Thing is they got 150 Jets capable of launching BVR and SAW.
While we are stuck at 20 ( 6 with HAL) odd LCA of IOC variety.
It is going to be same except few tweaks for aerodynamic improvements. The main changes shall be Radar, electronics, sensor fusion. EW, communication link, etc with weight reduction etc.That's exactly the point.. even after signing the Deal for 83 MK1A we don't have a clue about MK1A structure and other aspects.
So won't t it be better if HAL come up with a brand new PT ?

New Maruti 800 is much advance than I 10 but old model of Maruti 800 had issues.JFT Block-3 is much advanced than LCA Mk1A, true. But Block-1 is useless and Block-2 is trash.

Thundaars were in the repair shop having their cracked canopies replaced.And out of those 150, not even one came to counter Mirage 2000, Su 30 MKI or even Mig 21.
And weren't a good 40% of them grounded some point in time due to cracks appearing in FuselagesThundaars were in the repair shop having their cracked canopies replaced.
What is the Malaysian fighter requirement? I feel FA-50 will be selected.And weren't a good 40% of them grounded some point in time due to cracks appearing in Fuselages
Canopies can be switched what do you do with Fuselages
