Not sure about the practicality of employing these munitions in present day conflict as you have to fly level and very low and parallel to the runway to drop these munitions which makes you an easy target for AAA and MANPADS.

Correct me if I'm wrong the aircraft flies level at either 250 or 500 AGL to drop them which is suicidal.

No.
Link-16 is propriety. We do not have the source code. Nor will we be given that. That is why Link-17 was created.
 
Didn't know where to put this but Mods feel free to move it if need be.


I always wondered why we don't have the flight control stick to the side similar to the F-16 -- is this due to the lack of FWB in the earlier blocks of the jet?

Also ease of use and all, which is better or makes no difference. Because I feel with the side stick the left arm would be free to engage in other things.

============================================
this is news for me
Several radars were tested onboard prototypes of the JF-17, including Israel’s Elta EL/M-2032, Russia’s Phazotron Super Komar, Italy’s FIAR Grifo-S7, Brittain’s GEC-Marconi Blue Hawk and France’s Thomson-CSF RC-400.
