What's new

PAF to induct 188 JF-17 aircrafts including 26 JF-17B & 50 JF-17 Blk3

. . .
can these 4th gen jf17s or f16 or any other 4th gen aircraft compete with 5th gen f35s or other 5th gen fighter?
 
. . . .
i have zero knowledge of aircraft so emoji wont help bro!

and its a general question out of curiosity.
4th gen couldn't compete 5th gen jet because there were whole new design philosophy behind 5th gen jets there are lots variables for 4th gen fighter jets couldn't compete 5th gen STEALTH jets @newb3e

Why you think they (JF17) have to fight them?
He asking general questions and not relates to JF-17 @Silicon0000

so lets say india somehow manages to get 5th gen fighter (i am assuming raphaels are not 5th gen) f35s maybe how do you see future of air combat bw Pakistan and india?

and one more thing (again out of curiosity) air def system how effective are they if multiple rockets are fired?

and say if a country launches a nuclear warhead how will a single or even 5 - 6 nuclear missiles evade air def systems?

for RAFALE counter we should buy either J-10C form China or Mig-35 from Russia with least chances or at least we should get long range SAMs like HQ-9 or Aster-30 land version, as for F-35 if India signed deal for F-35 lets say in 2020 it will wont come after 2025 because LM are busy to fulfill orders for patner nation, then i hope FC-31 will be ready then and we have also Czechoslovakian or Ukrainian anti stealth early warning radar (low frequency) for detection of Stealth jets from our enemy @newb3e

okay one more noob question regarding air def system and nuclear missile

1: if a nuclear missile is destroy mid air will their still be same nuclear destruction like if it hits the target.
2: what the success rate of most advance anti missile def system?
3:quantity of nuclear missile is usually low so say we fire 10 missiles wont it be easier for anti missile system to destory 5-10 missiles mid air and not hit the target?
how to make sure nuclear missile hits it target and no destroyed mid air.

Hi,

5th gen is at a totally different level---.

It is just like---you have no visual from your eyes---but you have brain powers to see and react---.

In a 4 th gen---your brain power is like upto 5 miles---

whereas in the 5th gen it is more like 50 miles---

You can see with your brain powers and you can kill with your brain powers---.

So a 4th gen killing power thru the brain waves maybe upto 5 miles---

otoh the killing power of the 5th gen thru the brain waves would be around 50 miles.

Does that answer the question---?

short answer is no effect/minimal and remember bro Nuclear warheads don't detonated on ground but air burst on preset altitude to maximize the damage @newb3e
2: what the success rate of most advance anti missile def system?

These all question are relate to each other there no criteria to define a success rate of ABM systems because ABM system still not used in any war only PAC-1/2 destroying few scuds in First gulf war and remember bro there are two type of ABM systems endoatmosphere (low altitude above 50,000 to 100,000 feet) PAC-3 etc and exoatmosphere (space) Midcourse ABM/THAAD/SM-6/SM-3/S-400/ and up coming S-500

For evading ABM system there are few technological solutions that able to penetrates through ABM systems like MARs/ Maneuverable warheads/Boost glide vehicle, powered warheads like X-51/X-43 etc etc @newb3e

Hi, this article states the following: "According to AVIC, the 14.26 m long JF-17B has an increased wingspan of 9.465 m compared to the single seat version's 8.5 m wingspan, and a reduced height of 4.598 m." I also read the same in a Janes Defense Weekly article a year or so ago.

http://www.aviationanalysis.net/2017/04/jf-17b-fighter-trainer-complete-maiden-flight.html

That is incorrect. JF-17s wingspan is already 9.48 m.
Source is https://pac.org.pk/jf-17

When reading a third party article, its always better to go to the actual source. This aviationanalysis looks like an amateur website and certainly not one to be taken seriously.

Hi, I specifically also remember reading in Janes Defense Weekly a couple of years ago that the JF-17B had a slightly longer wingspan, fuselage, and a larger radome. But JDW could be wrong also. Thanks for the correction.
