Seems like a stealth aircraft with two vertical stabilizers with the left one blurred out.

Interesting… presumably there is a wing structure at the top left which is different from that of JF17 bk1 & 2. Is this a screenshot / video grab?

Wind inlet seem to be at the bottom, not sides.

Tail end looks similar to JF17… cant see the intake(s)

Wow ... is this real? and indeed related to the Block 3, since I thought it will use the AESA variant of the KLJ-7A?

It is real.

There is another AESA radar from the same manufacturer:

It is real.

And is it related to the Block 3? I thought it would more likely use the KLJ-7A.

No ideas.

possibly its a new pic of LKF601E fitted with PT-06 at the time of testing and evaluation phase, we already have seen this in promotional video of LKF601E.

The Block 3 doesn't have an IFR probe? Or is it because of the angle?

It is not the BLK III.

So a Block-2 or 1 has been fitted with the air cooled AESA option. Very interesting.

 

[Dazzler]

Block 2 was tested with LKF601 with cooling provided by aircraft's ECS. A more powerful ECS was installed which is now standard on all blk2s and Bs.
