I disagree. It IS a capable fighter or PAF wouldn't have developed it. They could have went for an all J-10 and F-16 fleet, but they developed JF instead and are buying 275 of them, increased from 250 we had been hearing last year.
PAF did not develope JF17
It was developed by CHENGDU in china.
PAF provided the money and the specifications.
unless of course you can provide Y TUBE vedios showing flight sims wind tunnels ETC in Pakistan.
YES PAC wil assemble the pl;ane at some stage but this project is the same as india,s huge SU30MKI programme.
SU30MKI a upgraded flanker MRCA was paid for by India but developed by SUKHOI.
As for PAF having 250 JF17 to defend their skies I HOPE your correct
IAF will be a lot happeir facing them rather THEN 250 J10/F16 combo.
Too me the JF17 just looks dated es. in comparison to F16 and the awesome looking J10.
but looks could be deceiving..
