Hi,
Why are you surprised at that---? That is what modern multirole aircraft do.
The JF17 carries more bombs than the old B57 bomber.
So---it is a bomber aircraft---.
It has the ability to carry smart weapons---so it can launch smartly at the target acquired or a designated target---.
It also has a built in capabiity to launch air to ship missiles against enemy naval ships---so it has a role over the seas---.
It has BVR air to air missile strike capability---so it is an air superiority fighter aircraft---.
There is a supposed version of it coming that would make it an electronic warfare capable aircraft---so now there is another capability that it will have---.
And obviously---it can carry dumb bombs and has a built in canon ---.
So---my question to you is---where lies the problem that you are unable to understand this aircraft's utility---.
See---modern electronics has brought in a miracle---which is when integrated---the aircraft becomes a master of that job---and each and every other job the electronics package is capable of performing---.
Just because it has a smaller size---does not mean that there is something missing---.
It has all the formats of bringing death and destruction without prejudice and with most potent venom---.
Please feel free to ask any other questions.
Hi,
Sir I have a question...
If the aircraft is so potent, I can't see any practical front-line role as you have mentioned "Air superiority" fighter when the time comes... the super, smart, destructive, venom carrier not even in the scene as per PAF?

Hi,
That decision was maybe out of negligence and poor management---.
That was the time to project and propagate the JF17 to new heights---the enemy was within the range and targets locked---the PAF general in the air command vehicle chickened out---and the passed on the buck to the ground control---.
Still a nice picture , anyway. It's possible to carry 2 C-802K missile but expense of fuel and range.Obviously a photoshop fake!
Sorry but not convinced with the logic sir. You can’t take risks at the crucial moment. You have to choose the right tool wisely without emotions.
Whether you like it or not, perhaps in the eyes of PAF, JF wasn’t a perfect tool to counter Indian Airforce at that moment quite frankly (and I still believe JF17 is a over hyped thingy). You can’t use a tool if you’re not sure whether it has a capability to perform accurately and seamlessly. That was the core reason, the “entire” command of PAF didn’t take a risk.
They want to make sure that the force, aircrafts, vehicles and system in placed which are ready to perform in the battlefield should be capable to do the job 100%. So, there would be no ambiguity in the selection. Rest, the results of the strategy was evident.
... And, I don’t see any poor management in the entire episode. You can evaluate the performance through the outcome. So no one cares about the JF. Whatever the reasons, your force out-performed the opponent in reality.
Hi,
Please don't justify cowardice at the highest level in the Paf---.
Idf you are not sure of the tool---then dis[pose of it and get the one that works---.
The fortunes of pakistan cannot be dependent on a MAYBE---.
I think thats what @MastanKhan was saying, that was the time to make it "Tried & Tested"its all about “Tried &Tested”... T&T always has a edge!
