lol but still i m satisfied that things moving onThat is a little secret. No decision yet.
Not necessarily a bad thing.carrying more fuel and weapons on additional hardpoints will only make jf-17 more sluggish.
Looks like JF-17B has larger wingspan i.e 9.465m while normal block 1 and 2 have 8.5m
this is official AVIC websiteI don't think so. in most cases this is due to being with or without the wingtip-pylons

its not better to speculate anything about this 2500 Km figure now as it could be anything (assuming the stated figure is true) but it is very difficult to believe that its combat radius, as a sudden increase of 1100 KM in combat radius should be difficult without any design change, on the other hand if its Ferry Range then its a decrease of 500 KM ....
But if its Basic Range (only on internal fuel) seems possible as it will moderately increase the range about 700 KM, in current configuration JF-17 can carry upto ~2,500 litter internally both in (central fuselage & in wings) internal fuel carrying capacity may be improved in same way as Gripen NG (current capacity of 3,500 litter of NG from 2,000 litter C/D)

the same fuel setup & plumbing carried by PT-4 & serial production is not confirmed as I have not seen any other pic of production model with installed fuel tank & open spine other then the one I posted posted above ..... on the basis of this I think the same setup was in use for serial production JF-17s as well because there was no report regarding the change till IFR consideration ....
what r these circle for?My above post wrongly give the impression that there was some change in setup of fuel tank a plumbing associated to it for IFR configuration in JF-17, I must admit that I concluded it prematurely as I tried to clarify in my next post (the highlighted part) .....
But now after seeing many videos & pic I can say at least 'both' circular opening are present in JF-17 form PT-01 till JF-17 (10232)
