Well if we look at JF17 Platform as a defensive all purpose fighter Jet , Armed with BVR missiles , the plane is sufficient for our defensive needs. Having planes with necessary missiles up in Airspace is a great milestone.
However we have to work with advancement in aviation happening around us in various platforms and so it is natural to ask the Thunder platform also continues to evolve
Having Lesser fuel capacity just means perhaps we won't be venturing into certain long distance missions which is not the prominent requirement for PAF in first place. As we can send Missiles for those missions.
But after 10 years , of service , it is not bad idea to enhance all aspects of plane
Thunder can cover radius Range: 3,482 km and that is quite a distance
