And for people who are questioning why PAF pilots didn't engage the other aircrafts, it's simple. They had a lock on them but they weren't with in the firing parameters as they were far inside the Indian airspace and they were already retreating. There is no question about authorization. It was...

I don't know the exact scenario but I believe a formation of Su30 was vectored towards LoC to engage the CAP team on our side of the boarder. Having seen the intent of crossing the loc buffer zone our pilots were authorized a fox 3. It was at that time the Su30 took a sharp 180 degrees to save...

Not necessarily. I believe mirages and jf17s weren't challenged while they were delivering their payload. It was after the impact Indian realized what has happened and reacted in haste. None of the mirages crossed the loc.

When you go nuclear, you don't care about the sanctions.

Well, you know where the 15s are.

Met 4 of the guys mentioned in the list after the surprise day ( 2 f-16 pilots and 2 pilots from #15). They were thoroughly professional and didn't let success of surprise day get into their heads. They had some great stories to tell starting from 26th until 28th.

Hehehhe .This is funny.

Is this news agency reporting on the basis of these threads? :P

[/QOUTE] "According to the Russian media, the original contract for the fighter's RD-93 engine covered 100 powerplants with an option for 500 more, and an uprated 20,500-lb.-thrust version, the RD-93MA, is under development. Meanwhile, one JF-17 is reported to be flying in China with the Guizhou...

not sure about the mixed dual racks but dual pylons on 2 and 6 is an option and might be done soon.

My estimate is 500.

True, the exact thing is being evaluated right now.

Another engine is in mind and is being evaluated right now just like the Aesa Radars. I have learnt that WS-13 has been designed in such a way that it fits FC-1 without any major modification in the air frame.

Has anyone seen Rafale's display? That thing is bloody agile.

Oh my God. W/C Asim Raja has been banished from Islam then? :(:-)

They don't complete the entire circle. I know jf-17 can go vertical and all but i always wondered why dont they complete a circle? Im pretty sure it can do that but for some reason its not in the list. Watch from 1:35.

I think i have figured out why... They are worried that jute cables might break if they pull hard on the stick. Good info!

Hahahha. Could be. They might start doing it once they have 3 axis FBW?!

I have never seen JF17 perform a complete loop in any of the airshows. Why don't they do it?

I suggest you to wait and see.
