Taking to the media personal at the Dubai Air Show, Air Marshal Reda Mahmoud Hafez Mohamed has said that Egyptian Air Force is 'very interested' in the JF-17 Thunder and one of the EFE pilot has already flown on the flight simulator.

Last year, Janes Defence Weekly had reported that the Egyptian Air Force is closely following the development of the JF-17 Thunder and has launched negotiations with Pakistan & China to discuss the the possibility of licensed production of light weight fighter jet in Egypt.

Egyptian Air Force already operates K-8 Karakorum intermediate jet trainer which was also jointly develoed by the Pakistan and China.Pakistan Air Force is looking to induct over 250 JF-17 Thunders to replace their ageing fleet of A-5s, F-7 P/MP and Mirages.

Pakistan offers cut-price JF17 fighter jet at Dubai Air Show
By Reuters
Published: November 13, 2011
DUBAI: Pakistan is pitching its new JF17 Thunder fighter jet, developed jointly with China, at an aggressive discount to dominant Western rivals, the country’s defense minister said on Sunday.
“You can buy three of our aircraft for one F-16,” Chaudhry Ahmed Mukhtar told Reuters at the Dubai Air Show, where the aircraft is being displayed.
He said that the producer, Pakistan Aeronautical Complex, was not able to keep pace with the requirements of the air force.
“Three squadrons are already flying the aircraft in Pakistan and one squadron in China,” he added.
Analysts expect the aircraft, which Mukhtar said was priced at $25-30 million, to be focused on emerging markets in Asia and Africa.
“Going to the (European) market is not very easy because you are cutting the profits of some other people,” Mukhtar said.
He said the development of the aircraft was not targeted at archrival India.
“India need not worry — it’s not India-specific. We are building very close relations with India.”

I have a feeling, current 50 JF-17 will be transfered to Pak Navy once Block-2 start coming to Pakistan. Since navy dont need high tech JF-17's, so baseline 50 will form the Strik squadon of PNS

^^^ Actually an aircraft can act like a heli..

V-22 Osprey is an aircraft but acts like a heli. In fact there are many like "Harrier Jump Jets" F35 etc... They have vertical or short take-off and landing ability..

Of course they cant plunge like a submarine..

Please read and conceive posts 3711, 3715 and 3717... I replied in that context.

I know almost everyone knows the concept in here.. JFT never meant to do VTOL.
