"The difficult part when designing the JF-17/FC-1, is to build an aircraft in a short timeframe that can rival third-gen fighters such as US F-16 Falcon. The use of indigenous computer-aided design software shortened the design phase of the JF-17 and makes the JF-17 cost effective. "
"In order to shorten the development phase of J-10, we took a risk to let the longitudinally unstable J-10 to fly first before adjusting its centre of gravity and aerodynamic centre, and this has no precedent in aviation history. J-10 successfully conduct its first flight on 23 March 1998, years before the most optimistic prediction." - Yang Wei, chief designer of JF-17/FC-1 and J-20 >>>>

"Forward lerx is useful to provide lift during high angle of attack.."

"...DSI increases the energy of air intake and boost engine thrust.The only other jet fighter with this technology is United States' JSF F-35, and our JF-17/FC-1 enters service earlier than F-35."

testing CM-400AKG in china

This supersonic standoff missile was first on display at the 2012 Zhuhai Airshow as part of FC-1/JF-17's "complete" weapon package. Unlike most modern ASMs flying at the low altitude, the missile flies a rare high ballistic trajectory, powered by a solid rocket motor. It appears that CM-400AKG may have evolved from the earlier SY-400 SRBM. Therefore the effectiveness of such attack profile is still unknown. Some specifications: weight 900kg, max range 240km, max speed Mach 5.5 (at diving stage?). It has INS during the mid-course and utilizes active radar/passive radar/IIR seeker with target-recognition capabilities at the terminal stage, which may improve its accuracy. The missile is claimed to be capable of terminal maneuver of some degree to avoid interception by SAMs. CM-400AKG is speculated to have been designed to attack fixed or "slow moving", high value ground targets. Up to two CM-400AKGs can be carried by an FC-1/JF-17. It has yet to see if CM-400AGK is entering the service with PAF's JF-17.

KLJ-7 radar analysis make Xiaolong fighters unleashed [klj7 v1]
Forum Source: Author: Time: 2014-10-15
In order to better render diverse military content for readers to meet the reading needs of different readers to discuss domestic and international strategic developments, Sina military launched an exclusive "deep military" section, the depth of interpretation military news hidden behind the trend, three-dimensional rendering of complex military facing China strategic environment, welcomed the attention.

Data Figure: JF-17 is equipped with domestic KLJ-7 radar

For the Pakistan Air Force JF-17, the most important is that it has the capability to launch active radar guided air to air missiles, which ended when the Indian Air Force to gain an advantage R-77 on Pakistan's achieved, it can be said that precious.

For the people, JF-17 this capability, all from domestic systems, including airborne radar, radar-guided air to air missiles subjective, data link, AWACS, formed a complete system of modern air combat, so that our country can become a rare offer this complete system of the country, both to improve the combat capability of the Air Force, but also enhance the competitiveness of domestic combat aircraft on the international market.

In related news from the point of view, JF-17 is equipped with domestic KLJ-7 Pulse Doppler fire control radar, it is defeated Italy GRIFO-S7, the Palestinian side is selected, because the price is even higher than the KLJ-7 The latter, so KLJ-7 has changed in the past to win the domestic system for low grid impression becomes superior to winning, so this victory for domestic airborne radar is very meaningful.

KLJ-7雷达浅析 令枭龙战机如虎添翼_西陆网

KLJ-7 on the detection range of a variety of claims, such as the Pakistan Air Force for Jane's defense weekly statement, the size of the target aircraft can provide detection range of 130 kilometers, about 105 kilometers depending on the information given by the China Electronics Import and Export Corporation , under apparent 85 km, it can be roughly estimated the Palestinian side to say that the straight line distance detection KLJ-7. It should be said KLJ-7 this detection distance is ideal, reached the third-generation fighter Adams improved levels of airborne fire control radar, the ability to active combat aircraft against India, Pakistan Air Force to meet the requirements for new combat aircraft.

It should be noted that the actual parameter airborne radar is confidential countries and under different modes, different target types, target different states, such as its detection range is not the same, even the same model to detect the state of the same type under the same goal, detection distance is different, so that we often hear is actually a detection range of statistics, the American standard is the target head-flying, RCS = 5, detection probability is 80%, which is 10 times, 8 times to achieve this from the former Soviet Union / Russia target RCS = 3, there is the probability of detection of the information that it is about 70%, France RCS = 5, the detection probability of only 60%.

For airborne radar, it would like to improve detection range needs to improve in many aspects, the first is the pore size and power, which is the radar range equation two basic parameters, then the receiver sensitivity, signal / data processing systems, and so on to, so KLJ increase -7 detection range also indicates that China's airborne radar and electronic components, the progress achieved in the field of microelectronics.

Data Figure: seemingly simple flat seam array antenna for high precision machining requirements

First, the aperture, the smaller the wavelength of the radar, the antenna made for higher precision, the smaller the wavelength of the antenna, the more difficult the processing of large-size antenna, otherwise it will cause an increase in system losses. Gain reduction, airborne radars operate in X-band, only about 3 cm wavelength, so it is for higher machining accuracy requirements, such as the crack angle, location and depth have strict requirements, which generally achieve precision micrometer about one millimeter, so it is necessary to process high-precision machine tools, our country in the development of KLJ-1 fire control radar when, because of the lack of domestic precision machining capacity, resulting in lower electrical performance of the antenna, so the loss and gain performance is not ideal, so limiting the performance of the radar. With the improvement of the domestic precision machining capabilities, has to meet the needs of flat seam array antenna processing, such KLJ-7 only in the case of pore size of about 600 mm, the detection distance of 130 km, while the KLJ-7 in the aperture of 800 mm of Under the circumstances, the detection distance of only about half of it, which is about 70 km.

Another indicator is the power, the transmitter power is that it has a more important indicator that the power density, that is to say how much power can be produced per unit weight, target advanced 80s of the last century, the airborne radar is about 10W / kg, to the beginning of this century, this indicator has increased to 40W / kg, can improve significantly by the material made airborne radar, limiting processing capacity, so a smaller transmitter power density, so in the same power indicators, the need for greater The size and weight in order to achieve, thus limiting the airborne radar performance, especially light combat aircraft fire control radar performance, so KLJ-7 with a smaller weight to achieve a greater detection range, indicates that China's airborne radar Transmitter power density reached a higher level, then combined to increase manufacturing capacity of the antenna, the detection distance increases to lay a solid foundation from domestic airborne radar.

Time: 2014-10-15

Data Figure: transmitter power density is another indicator of the need to improve

In fact a combination of KLJ-7 / JF-17 is not only to improve the combat capability of the Pakistan Air Force, but also improve its ground attack capability, the author notes in promotional materials which referred KLJ-7 has a synthetic aperture imaging (SAR ), ground moving target indication (GMTI) two modes, these two models are complementary, SAR airborne radar can improve the resolution of targets on the ground, but it can not detect ground moving target, so it is necessary to support the back of a pattern, rely on these two models, JF-17 can detect ground small, moving targets in all weather conditions day and night.

After the detection of the target, JF-17 can quickly determine target coordinates passed to the rear command post, or it can be entered into the on-board satellite / inertial guided bombs inside their attack, it should be noted that the second phase of the project has covered domestic Compass Pakistan, so Pakistan Air Force inventory can be very convenient to install a large number of general-purpose bombs INS / Beidou satellite positioning receiver upgraded precision-guided bombs, thus the economy, rapid increase Pakistan Air Force precision strike capability.

So for our Air Force, with the deepening of the Beidou second phase of construction, a large number of airborne radar equipment popularity SAR mode, the laser inertial navigation system, look at the information from the Zhuhai Airshow, JL-9 is to use an upgraded content laser gyro inertial navigation system replaces the mechanical inertial navigation, but also existing stocks of ordinary bombs can be upgraded to precision-guided bombs, thereby enhancing our ability to impress the Air Force.

"...DSI increases the energy of air intake and boost engine thrust.The only other jet fighter with this technology is United States' JSF F-35, and our JF-17/FC-1 enters service earlier than F-35."

This talk confirm my hypothesis that the merit of JF17 is its high angle of attack, just mimick F18
