Pakistan will launch a two-seater version of JF-17 - Induction of JF-17B in 2017

It says the JF-17B is "tayyar". I want to see pictures of the actual prototype!!!!:bounce:
 
I think JF 17B is ideal for precision guided bombing . It will spare the F16 . it will boost the capabilities of PAF.

I don't think it will have more hard points . it is simply a twin seater version just like F16B or F16D.

Can you plz share the link ...
 
JF-17B will be inducted in 2017 as well as Myanmar will take delivery of first batch :-)
 
Hope they change smoky engine as well and why not PAF thinking for J 10B as a multiple jet to enhance our capabilities in air
 
First it was PAF's requirements and now international market which is driving the project. I am certain after successfully delivery of initial export orders, this thing will evolve beyond Block-III.
