Exactly. Lock down range is still 160km which is also the range of R77M, which is consistent with my claim that Su-30 can shoot down JF17 from a distance of 160 Km.
What I was saying that since radar range of JF17 is 130-150 km which is less than 160km, JF17 will never be able to detect Su30 in a combat situation because it will be shot down before reaching there itself. Hence, it is pointless to think about whether JF17 will be able to detect Su30 which was exactly what Thorough Pro was doing.
Again it should be noted that all sources of radar range of Su-30 MKI don't have very solid info. But it should be assumed that it can detect target well beyond the range of its A2A missile Vympel R77M. I believe this discussion has come to an end. Thanx
I can show u more sources which claim that Su-30 RCS is 5m^2. After that u can play my source is better than yours as long as u want.
you are going off topic.... just back off buddy..... plenty of time we discussed about mki vs threads... no need to discuss further... JF-17 is not developed to counter any particular Jet let alone MKI..... they wan't replace old-age bird's .... JF-17 is cost effective fighter.......
@some member claimed MKI got 20 m^s.... if it got that much RCS IAF won't induct huge no's ... but obviously it got big RCS....
