Air Forces Monthly - summary of updates to JF-17

It's a caption in the image of one jet under construction.
Don’t understand when they had access to PAF official then why are they speculating and not giving official answer. The picture caption says “it looks like” it will be air-cooled.
 
No one is going to talk about Ra'ad integration on JF-17 ? I mean seriously ? Ra'ad is a bloody ALCM with conventional and nuclear warhead, give it some respect.
More importantly the loyal wing man program already underway jointly with China and Turkey :D

JFT will in future fly with man machine teaming in formation with these loyal wingmen drones under its control.

This article solidifies my line of thought even further about the necessity of acquiring more JF-17s and not needlessly waste money on J-10C for a very incremental increase in capability.

Future PAF could be a three jet force. F-16, JF-17 and AZM's NGF

J10C seem to be an interim gap filler. Also gives us numbers quickly.
 
RA'AD integration was disclosed by @JamD some time back, so its not a new thing for many readers

Wasn't it more like speculations ? I mean I know @JamD and quality of his posts but still if integration of Ra'ad was done before than awesome. But still I will celebrate that, along with the mention about Pl-15's range exceeding the Radar of JF, which means we are seeing more connectivity (sorry can't find a better word) between the assets with Link17.

He actually posted a picture of a memento related to the integration program.

And the PL15 exceeding range of radar is not in the article. The article says the radar range is sufficient for all current and future BVR.
 
1. Block-III has additional composites to increase load carrying capacity. You can read where by buying the AFM issue
Any figures about the amount of the composites like what percentage of weight/Airframe consists of composites.
And what kind of RAM will be used on top of it.

not speculative post but he posted a pic of some award or certificate to some individual(s) related to study of RA'AD integration with JF-17.

Without physical changes to Ra'ad (making it sleeker) or increasing the height of JF-17 how can it be fitted? Or were the issues software integration related? And "if" integration has really been done, then it would also mean that earlier blocks can carry it as well?
