I have mixed feelings - I may be a tad jealous. I do not like the JF-17. However, I am happy to see aircraft being exported out of Asia. Congrats Pakistan and China!

Cry India cry.....

BD has a higher GDP than Pak (according to the Indian analysts’ at WB, IMF etc. based on the BD Hindus’ producing distorted data), but has only 8 front line fighters purchased in 1999....

According to the Hindutva, Pak should emulate BD!! Bastards....

@ghani K, Nigeria 's initiative brings JF -17 in the limelight. Hope this jet fighter attracts other buyers especially from Islamic countries. 9 Countries have purchased it including 7 Muslim Countries.

Soon J 17 will be the main fighter aircraft of most 3rd world countries as it is lethal, excellent performance, effective and economical.

J 17 is tried and tested in real fight situation where it knocked out a Mig 21 and Su 30. Excellent selling point.
