JF-17 Thunder Multirole Fighter [Thread 7]

Does anyone know which IFR probs we have installed? If I am not wrong they have installed it inside the cockpit, will it affect its performance?

Its not FC1 as expected, mostly related to AWC and aviation city @ kamra where CATIC is also involved.

Its Chinese system and not South African , again based on pics i may be wrong but does not looks like South African
The question is
'Is Chinese system/probe compatible with Russian pods in PAF IL78 or pods are also being updated with Chinese system which is NATO compliant RDC-1


China's tanker conversion was the result of an MoU signed with FRL Ltd in the UK, in 1986. The result of this effort was an adaptation of the H-6 design with two indigenous pylon mounted RDC-1 hose/drogue pods resembling older FRL Mk.32 pods, these pods were designed by the China Research Institute of Aero Accessories.

The valves in the probe and drogue that are most commonly used are to a NATO standard and were originally developed by the company Flight Refuelling Limited in the UK and deployed in the late 1940s and 1950s[citation needed]. This standardization allows drogue-equipped tanker aircraft from many nations the ability to refuel probe-equipped aircraft from other nations. The NATO standard probe system incorporates shear rivets that attach the refueling valve to the end of the probe[citation needed]. This is so that if a large side or vertical load develops while in contact with the drogue, the rivets shear and the fuel valve breaks off, rather than the probe or receiver aircraft suffering structural damage. A so-called "broken probe" (actually a broken fuel valve, as described above) may happen if poor flying technique is used by the receiver pilot, or in turbulence[citation needed]. Sometimes the valve is retained in the tanker drogue and prevents further refueling from that drogue until removed during ground maintenance.

This changes everything. If this really will be JF-17 B than I think Pakistan will first produce 50 of these for itself I mean PAF than BLOCK III will enter the scene

some day ago a news was published in an urdu news paper namely urdupoint according the news MoD approve the Block-III the new point was in the news that changes in the Frame and more load capicity.

They are confusing JF-17 B with BLOCK III
