JF-17 Insane Take off

.
As can be seen that it's going up half way down the runway while others have to go straight to the full stretch of the runway to power up and then climb. Another thing worth noting is that the JF-17 is now operating with NVG.

The first power projection was done when we saw Thunder taking off in Paris Air Show. As seeing its operational capability, it tells a lot about its power/muscle climbing at the time of take off that too with Drop Tanks. Oh wait, it is photo shop & Thunder cannot do this or that or even, it is not flying and NVG was not tested nor hinted before.

Sir, if you want a sampling of Thunder's climb rate, take a look here:

The only thing is, this shows vertical climb while the engine is already hot.

In every single show, the muscle climb immediately after High Alpha pass is.... OK.

Really, i was under impression it's from yesterdays flypast.
Nope...years old photo,not sure but i think its from 2009(photo data suggests 2009),but surely before 2014.
Below are in good quality.Zoom in and u can see the serials to be 07.These were taken at Kamra.

@Windjammer Where's the video?

Sorry @araz Bahi, couldn't resist it as THE VIDEO is not yet available for public viewing hence the screenshot. The JF-17 in full afterburner going ballistic soon after liftoff with two fuel tanks is a sight to hold. As can be seen that it's going up half way down the runway while others have to go straight to the full stretch of the runway to power up and then climb. Another thing worth noting is that the JF-17 is now operating with NVG.

A zoom in on the picture doesn't show middle of runway, in my opinion it's not a vertical takeoff after taxi, it's a high speed fly by with a vertical climb as a demo. I could be wrong. But it's my opinion

PAF has certainly improved the Rd-93 engine might be with the help of Russian engineers, as the full aft burner is a clean flame out like the western engines. In nineties PAF made the thermo dynamic kits for F7s as it couldn't give clean flame out and were quite low on thrust. It's very easy to measure thrust level at full aft if there is a proper thrust measuring gun following or gauging it.

Full ab was never a problem it’s dry thrust range and in certain flight regime where you see black some and in case of Rd-93 it’s might be better Than old Rd-33

Anyway life enhancements due to French/western technology due to western/French looms , filters, wiring etc was introduced by pac which may further enhance the mtbo of Rd-93
