A bird strike cannot take down FC1 except for extremely rare double bird strike choking both inlets causing fan failure due to fan blade, bearing & exit vane deformation, reduction in cross-section & surge. With protection build into the inlet design, this is extremely unlikely. If it has, then it would constitute a major design failure. On the contrary, it looks other than that, probably a failure of LPC which should be a cause of critical concern. Lack of basic engineering in turbine design & control and the flow-out from this critical deficiency will continue to hit PAF extremely hard. Although PAF had ample time, opportunity and resources to develop a turbofan program over the last three decades but has consistently failed to come upto expectations. 58% or 98% share means nothing if you cannot develop a turbofan for your fighter jet program. Super powers understood it very well long ago and by intent they invested in turbofan engineering sacrificing their bleeding edge programs. Sometime ago i advised people at the helm to invest in fan designing instead of wasting resources on next generation fighters. Perhaps they are more interested in wasting money. These programs mean nothing without a viable turbofan.
