The contract was signed in second week of November last year, just before Dubai Airshow. The term 'Emergency basis' was misinterpreted by the media. Since the roll out of first jet in Nov 2009, PAC was trying to enhance its share in development. After 2nd May, they decided to get more input...

PAC is an expert when it comes to selling things. They speak where its worth it. The information you are talking about is only given to the intended audience during meetings with their representatives. Before the Dubai air show, they made a 1 hr special documentary highlighting their work. Free...

How do you know thats true? IMO its just a forum myth, in reality a 20-30second afterburner is enough to dry out two 360 gallon fuel tanks. This assumption might have evolved from some related stories of Mig-29, but the case of Thunder isnt actually the same. In simple words, PAF would never...

A unique kind of self defence that starts inside another country....interesting.

Official JF-17 Brochure for year 2010-2011.

That Bold part isn't happening any time soon! There isn't any Magic wand solution in manufacturing such massive number. Things are very slow in real life, as each aircraft has to go through entire testing after leaving the production lines. Last but not the least any number over 150 would be...

Ever customer has selected its colour scheme which blends on its terrain. Alternative scheme trails for a CAS F-16 named Wild Weasal was also introduced in mid80s..but it didn't became much popular. Many countries have added special markings on their F-16s...i haven't seen a Pink one yet:D...

The length of JF-17 weapons is: SD-10: Length 12.89 ft (3.93 m) (ref PL-12 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) GBU-10 Paveway II: Length: 14 ft 4in (4.34 m) (ref GBU-10 Paveway II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ) MAR-1 : Length 4.03 metres (13.2 ft) (ref MAR-1 - Wikipedia, the free...

Timely replcement of aging fleet is the need of the hour. At this time, increasing the array of weapons in JF-17's arsenal isnt the primary objective. What PAF need from Jf-17 at this point and till 2015 is. 1. A good dofighter with BVR carrying capibilty. 2. Good Range 3. Good strike package (...

Good find. It is some kind of VHF/UHF/SATCOM antennas. The ELINT C-130 has following small rotating ball under its nose. Star SAFIRE HD http://www.alcione.org/FAM/C-26A_FAM_big1.jpg

The news came late in the media. Basic things have already been sorted out. The Full Op Clearance was subjected to some other related equipment purchase...i can't comment on that. As far as Raad's/H-2 integration is concerned, it may never be announced. If we can develop them then we can...

Based on the available information i think bird strike may have been a cause. The aircraft completed some laps before going down.

Its better to push an aircraft to its extremes and understand its strong areas and limitations before putting up another similar design dedicated for Naval support. Take the example of Mirage-2000 evolution, its prototype flew in late 1978/early 1979, became operational in 1982. In late80s, its...

This is such a funny thread..sir Irfan you should have done that in first place! Two great posts:rofl: Please don't mind my asking are we talking about HIV here?

A simple question...why would current DG SPD be interested in a post at Nescom which works under SPD? If i remember correctly he resigned when his junior was made Joint Chief.

No, that precision strike must be worth it. The intended targets of strafing including enemy personnel/small bunkers with small arms, a moving boat or vehicle....now most of people think that a targeting pod like Sniper/Lantrin can easily take out a moving boat or vehicle..trust me its not that...

Arsalan here is one shot from L120 from a v.long distance. It isn't much stable but still its good.:D

Good points on the use of K-8 and structural changes required in its design by FreeSoul and Irfan Baloch. When operations in Swat/NWA started, PAF had great funding from U.S. Naturally they were inclined to use U.S origin F-16s in it. The training and experience on the type was also the...

Well you can adjust the lightning from camera of softwares like Photoshop. I have faced such problems yet.IMO its result is great in day..but its difficult to handle in long distance night shots. Whats the Panorama Assist feature? haven't tried it.

Why so?? who is interested in wasting time & money on serial production without finalizing the design? Last year when AFM published a CGI of dual seat JF-17, most people on forum believed it like word of god. On some forums, discussions were even made on its design. Interestingly, that was...
