What's new

PAC's MOU with TAI at Paris airshow "Bright future of PAF"

Could be on stealth technology. (Bcs none of the side has since shared the details)

We all were wating for this start of technology exchange

B/w PAC and TAI

true the way our AM are hinting it has high probability, but TAI is famous for many different things we need to upgrade the avionics of JF-17 on par with western counterparts and TAI is the viable gateway.

It's already on par and can cater for future upgrades as well.
 
Could we see a stealth JF-17 in the future? Maybe BLK 5
 
Stealthier maybe? :partay:

Why ... IMO there will be no Block 125 F-16C in 2030 in parallel to the F-35 - unless it is not again a marketing plot to sell the Indian AF the old F-16 - and consequently, if the PAF is indeed interested in a 5th generation type be it Azam, a FC-31 or whatever derivate - then there is no need for yet another JF-17.

I share the same opinion. To make JF17 stealthy, a lot of major changes to the airframe will be required. Ironically, JF17 is too small to become a proper stealthy platform with internal bays thus it will be an all new airframe and hence a different airplane..not JF17 but may be JF18 or something else..right now it is called Project Azm which may be a derivative of J31 + some other stuff.

However block 3 and block 4 will be more stealthy than the current blocks due to the use of more composites and perhaps ram and some other minor changes.
