With the 3 EFTs + the SD-10s, rolling at 120 deg/sec seems respectable.
The JF-17 in that load configuration rolls 720 degrees from -50 to -44 seconds = 720 deg/6 sec = 120 deg/sec. I am sure it will be higher when empty. Not even sure if this is the high as loaded.
Yes, lots of rounding up
The design of the plane is irrelevant to it performance? :undecided::undecided: I am amazed. You are wonderful.
Of course it can fight every plane that comes against, just with different probably that it will get defeated by some than by others, as it seems happened in this exercise. Also note...

Now you mentioned AWACS: With the missile seeker range of about 20km, why cant the AWACS guide a BVR missile until the missile is within lock range? I am sure the awacs radar is accurate enough to with say 5km less than 100m (just read a display card of one awacs) With datalink and mid-course...
