Alo, Both the planes are designed for point defense. In order for the 2 planes to come face-to-face with each other in combat, at least one of the plane has to take up deep strike role, which is very unlikely to happen.
Avionics of MiG-21 Bison consists of Super Kopyo X-band pulse Doppler radar and RVV-AE (AA-12 Adder) beyond visual range missiles and PGMs., new nosecone, new canopy, single-piece windshield and new canopy made of stressed acrylic composites, Sextant's TOTEM RLG-INS with NSS-100P GPS embedded GPS receivers, El-Op HUD, infrared search and track system (IRST) from Russia's URALs optical-mechanical plant, two Sextant MFD-55 LCD displays, autopilot,
radar warning receivers (RWR), digital flight data recorder, new liquid
air cooling system, HOTAS controls, stores management system, digital air data computer system, short range radio navigation system, new HF/VHF/UHF radios, twin conformal Vympel flare dispensers (26mm, 120 rounds) and a new electric power supply system. Reportedly the new RWR to be fitted, is an indigenous system developed by DRDO and goes by the name Tarang. A modified
version of this RWR will be used aboard the Su-30MKI.
That is not all, apart from carrying the deadly AA-11 "Archer" that arms the MiG-29 and longer range AA-10 Alamo BVR AAMs, Bison pilots will have the SURA helmet mounted sight, used by Flanker pilots.
i don't understand why my Pakistani friends are underestimating the BISON.... i mean JF-17 is any day more capable then the earlier versions of the MiG21 however, the Bison is a lethal and potent fighter....
now in terms of the advanced radar and avionics and BVRs it also has more hard points then the JF currently has!! it has a better radar currently on it while the JF is still in talks with the french and is currently equipped with the grifo-7 the radar we have on the F-7PG......
the basic JF-17 comes with SD-10 not the Archer or the AMRAAM.....and SD-10 is not as good as the Archer or AMRAAM
so yes guys currently in its present state the bison is better than the JF-17 however as the developments continue on the JF it will become the more potent fighter and not to forget the JF in the future is expected to have Air to Air refueling capabilites!!
that should make the JF have longer legs and make it a potent fighter......
