Any proof on this regard will be appreciated..
all those who think that the LCA is dead and buried just a point of view 3 countries of the world are working behind it now, israel,russia and france now just need to do a rethinking.
thanx

The PAC JF-17 Thunder (Urdu: تھنڈر, also known in China as the Chengdu FC-1 Fierce Dragon (Chinese: 枭龙; pinyin: Xiāo Lóng) [1], is a single-seat, multi-role fighter aircraft jointly developed by Chengdu Aircraft Corporation of China and Pakistan Aeronautical Complex of Pakistan. The "JF" and "FC" designations stand for "Joint Fighter" and "Fighter China" respectively. The first two aircraft were delivered to the Pakistan Air Force on 12 March 2007.[2] The JF-17/FC-1 is designed to be a cost-effective aircraft which can meet the tactical and strategic needs of air forces of developing countries. On 22 January 2008, Pakistan started serial production of the aircraft at the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex, Kamra
lol it took india almost 3 decades to put LCA operational with the assistance of France Isreal US Russia and just imagine how many years it would have taken india if they were making this plane 90-100% on their own! 50-60 years? just amazing.

JF-17 stands Joint Fighter - 17

Every one learns from ones mistakes, so if you can get help on how to avoid those mistakes, its a good idea to do so instead of going through trial and error. Although LCA has recently been facing alot of troubles, there is a good chance that the longer it takes to get it right, the better it will be.
If a developed country was taking on such a project. And the longer it stays on the drawing tables, testing and the sort, the more the developers will see the trend changing and new technology arriving in the world. And they will want to enhance the capabilities of their plane to match the rest of the world. So in the end the product would be much better than it would have been. But since India is not a developed country I can't say for sure that it would actually be any better.
Also I would like to say currently JF-17 MK1 is widely regarded as 3.5 gen plane, and the J-10A 4 gen. The J-10B or FC-20 that PAF will be getting will be 4.5 gen plane. JF-17 MK2 will most likely be very close to 4 gen, with the potential to go higher (but that would be a waste of resources, because PAF requirements will be met already by then). And if the LCA comes out in the near future, it will most likely be in the same class as the base 3.5 gen plane and the MK2 version most likely being 4 gen. There is no chance that it will be any better, a country which has never made fighter jets before, doesn't just start making 4.5 gen planes from the get go, you have to learn and research before you start doing trials, and then fix your mistakes. China has a better chance of making a 4.5 gen or 5 gen plane because they have been making jets for a long time.
JF-17 is being marketed by a joint Sino-Pakistani organisation that was set up specifically for this purpose from what I have read.The JF 17 will not be marketed by pakistan---the FC 1 will be marketed by china---.

April 11/08: Jane’s Defence Weekly reports that:
“Pakistan and China have established a joint marketing organisation to promote international sales of their JF-17 ‘Thunder’ fighter aircraft, the head of the main Pakistani arms export agency has told Jane’s. Major General Muhammad Farooq, director general of Pakistan’s Defence Export Promotion Organisation (DEPO), described the JF-17 in early April as an ideal “choice for countries which are mindful of their finances.”
Nov 20/08: Pakistani Chief of Air Staff ACM Tanvir Mahmood Ahmad says that aid the first JF-17 squadron would be inducted into the PAF fleet in the first quarter of 2009.
His accompanying announcement that another 36 high-tech combat aircraft (CF-20, probably a version of China’s J-10) would be inducted into the PAF fleet by 2010 got more attention, however. Pakistan Daily | Pak Tribune.
Acer if he is generalising said:I never said china and pakistan is not capable of building that .My doubt for profit sharing was from the fact that china is working on the project from past two decades ..Where as pakistan was involved in it only recently(1999).And with an invest ment of less than 100 million..
