Najam's work with URDU caption on top, what's so special about it ?
Its a widely known ex-plan of PAF to induct 250 Thunders.

Not an ex plan, The current Air chief retreated that PAF is pursuing the plan of having 250 JF-17, in one of Janes interview

Seems like Pakistan is locally producing both ls-6 and lt-2. I am very interested in seeing extended range SDBs in service.

=>Production of JF-17 Block 2 yet to start (as of March 2013)

Not environment testing. It is an Anechoic Chamber : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anechoic_chamber

Anechoic chambers, a term coined by American acoustics expert Leo Beranek, were originally used in the context of acoustics (sound waves) to minimize the reflections of a room. More recently, rooms designed to reduce reflection and external noise in radio frequencies have been used to test antennae, radars, or electromagnetic interference.
 
22 JF-17 Block ( Let's hide the block for a while :chilli: ) built, waiting for First flight trials.Give a month or two to induct them all. Be ready to be surprised. Changes in EW suite manufacturer. Major tweaks in KLJ-7. Flight and target trials of SD-10 ( very very successful ).

Zaravan would be very happy to know.
 
New EW suite. French to be exact.
1 JF-17 on loan to the Chinese. For their new engine trials. Expected time to mature ~ 5 years.
Tuned Avionics, upgraded hardware. Upgrades Software. Extra Target Tracking (hopeful).
