What's new

India's Tejas flounders while Pakistan's JF-17 Thunder soars to new heights

INR 162 crore... around 23 million dollars...
From wikipedia:
Unit cost of LCA
₹162 crore (US$23 million) for Mk 1[6]
₹463 crore (US$64 million) for Mk 1A[7]

Unit cost of JF-17
Block 1: US$~25 million[citation needed]
Block 2: US$ ~28 million[citation needed]
Block 3: US$ ~32 million (planned)[citation needed]

As a workhorse the thunder is fine well done .
But you can't best Indian air force with thunders
For this you need 100 more block 52 or J31.or su35

Pakistan is developing JF-17s Block-III to fight New Zealand. That is why JF-17 Block-IIIs are designed to beat their air-force. :lol:

If we go with your logic, Pakistan is developing JF-17s to fight New Zealand, has built 3 variations (block-I, block-II and B) and still would require a foreign fighter for some strange reason to beat its air-force. So why has it built JF-17s at all ? Because of your level of reasoning, I just want to ask; are you an Indian?

INR 463 is the price quoted by HAL... It has raised eyebrows in India and currently HAL is preparing answer to justify that price... this is higher than paid for MKI...

As per my understanding... there are very few upgrades in block 2... and block 3 is not ready yet...

Nobody knows... currently CAD design is done... three of them are based on Kaveri engine...

it will have UTTAM AESA Radar... bigger and better size, payload and range... TOT received would be used extensively to make this jet...

It will have a different name... Tejas mk2 is just for reference...

should we got it from india too ???


The JF-17 Block-II achieved full operational capability (FOC) in 2015
Without Air refuelling , LGB's and helmet targeting etc etc? like a Hawk Trainer plane?

What do you think JF17 don't have FOC and still they export the product?. Grown up and if Pakistan is not showing that doesn't mean that JF17 don't have it


Ssh!!!!!. That is vedic technology and Tejas can fly from Trucks
there is difference between mehran and merc and fully loaded merc... if mehran selling in large quantity, that dosent means it is as good as merc , is it?

If Merc is a show piece and Mehran is 100+ in operational mode then Mehran is good because it delivered, Plus if both performs at same level then what is the use of leather seats and other accessories. Stop talking and start working, make Tejas fully operational first

Block-2 has a capability of air refueled by our IL-78, JF-17 has been tested SATELLITE GUIDED BOMBS in south waziristan which is more complex then LGB, hence it has a capability to fire LGB, we have different approach than your junk TEJ@$$ which uses mostly foreign components, so you thanks to the west @Tristar :sarcastic::lol:;):enjoy:

As for your information HAWK can't carry a BVR missiles @Tristar ;):enjoy:

I'll request all Pakistani members to please STOP comparing JF-17 Thunder, an active duty plane since last 10 years and currently going through 4th evolution with non-existent paper plans. Please don't Insult Pride of PAF with an unwanted illegitimate miscarriage.
