No! it was not a deception, it has been marketed as two or three at the price of one western and it is being sold at that price. It is a low-cost capable fighter, not a cheap fighter, the value is in the fighting capability not in the finish
Hi,
I did not want to say it---but here it is.
The concept LOW COST was a DECEPTION right from the gitgo---. People having started to relate it to CHEAP and such is not the case.
The aircraft was designed to take on the enemy aircraft in service and future aircraft that the enemy would be getting---so how could it be cheap---.
All the gadgets that this aircraft has---are the best available to Paf---the gadgets are not cheap---neither the seat, the display or the weapons and weapon systems.
The only thing " cheap " over here is the labor. There are no compromises on structure or material used or quality of workmanship---so where does cheap come from.
It was just an illusion created to keep the aircraft UNDERRATED to deceive the enemy---and that is where the Paf has been successful.
Hi,
Absolutely---you are correct---.
So---there must be a reason somewhere in the design stage---why it was chosen---.
