Still looks like B :frown:
Btw BLK III single seat aya nahi dual seat kahan sae ayega ?
Even if a picture gets leaked the aircraft would be in yellow Livery.

Could be slightly redesigned B-version for PAF. Or maybe it's just the angle giving that impression.

Could be the mock JF-17 cockpit for testing ejection seats. Pictures of it appeared recently. But this looks too sophisticated for that. & the placement of those jacks in place of the landing gears suggest there might be wings to that thing.

Indeed, the first Block-III is going to be a prototype variant. It should be yellow.

Guess what, it was hidden in plain sight. notice the following:

Here is the dual seat, notice the extended cockpit and fatter front nose..

- The cockpit is slanted like the dual seater, but can house one pilot.

- The nose is clearly different, reminiscent of the f-16 as it gets narrower at the front which is not the case with the dual seat version

Compare both and see the differences

Appears to be same Block 2B Model , just parked far away , it might be our first JF17 Block II B

The color scheme is for Pakistan Airforce , so it seems like it is confirmed we will get

  • JF17 Block II B

But if it is parked in China it could be an export order

i think the canopy style looks different, right now the B has canopy opening to side (left to right) while this one seems to have sliding from back to front?

I have credible friends who are denying this is BLOCK III. They are most likely Mayanmar
 
Here is another when it was being shipped. The engine nozzle suggest it features WS13 not the rd93.

Compare it with the ws13 equipped prototype seen few years ago.

B model in karma. Check the lengthened cockpit.

What makes you think it is a WS-13??
