The Aselsan pod has been integrated, validated and verified on the JF-17.Though not directly integrated, the JF-17 can also carry electro-optical/infrared sensors and self-defense jammers on external pods.
The same can be said about this.he PAF JF-17s are still awaiting Chinese PL-12 radar-guided missiles with a range of around fifty miles to obtain true beyond-visual range capability.
I have found this statement baffling from the very first time it was mentioned in an article earlier this year. If air flow was an issue, the air-intakes would have been widened and optimised from the very start. Even cars have precise computerised controls for mixing the ideal amount of air/fuel.The jet intakes are widened to improve airflow
The JF-17 will not have an internal one. The Aselsan pod already has an high resolution 3rd generation FLIR, which has air-to-air modes.The Block III Thunder may also feature an internal infrared sensor
