so 16 by the end of this year, that is, in the next 4-5 months ?
got any links to articles claiming these numbers ?
He is retired for several years now. Every new induction is not told to every retired officer. Policy could change any time. Stop taking everything as word of GOD. The claim of J-10 and other jets could be true and could be false. Just wait things out. And if J-10 come it won't come as answer to Rafale for GOD sake that answer most likely will be F-16 new model. J-10 would be a Mirage replacement if claims are true.
New Recruit
Sometime you need to ras between the lines. Not everything is handed on a plate. Its nit schoolWhen are the Thunder block 3s expected ?
Mr Chaudhry mentioned radar but skipped mentioning the Rafale's AESA, which is also a big advantage.
What is the source for claiming there will be more than 36?Very comprehensive ? This was a milquetoast analysis.
He didn't mention the SPECTRA EW suite which makes the Rafale so dangerous, no mention of the stand off weapons and other munitions either.
Also, there will be a LOT more than 36 by the end of it.
He also dismissed the J-10 as some sort of transitory temporary system for the PLAAF..
and the J-20s will not be for export, PAF will get the J-31.
Current scheduled production of Block-3s and Dual Seater Bravos.
2020: Block-3 x2 and Bravo x14
2021: Block-3 x12 and Bravo x4
2022: Block-3 x12
2023: Block-3 x12
2024: Block-3 x12
PAF does not give a damn about the magical radars on Rafales just like it didn't give a damn about the 230+ Su-30 MKI mini awacs. That's something only special for you gullible Indian people.
No source, just a gut feeling.What is the source for claiming there will be more than 36?
I believe that PAF's primary mission is simply protecting Pakistani airspace and for this, they have an adequate inventory. They do not see Rafale as a game changing threat but it does tilt the odds more into IAFs favor, gives the IAF a more capable asset for a range of missions.
To say it like it is, PAF would like to have more American fighters.. They are in love with the F-16s, but until such a deal materializes morale must be boosted with whatever is available. The JF-17 is certainly a good supporting platform for the price.
Did I hear this right - that JF-17 is better than J-10 and China learned something from JF-17 which they used to improve the J-10?.. If true, Chinese must be quite stupid to not produce 100s of JFs for PLAF.
It may not be game changing aircraft for Pakistan for sure.However, it adds up more teeths to the IAF's Inventory
such as Spectra,Meteor,Scalp and etc.However, i won't underestimate Jf-17 it is a cheaper platform which has formed backbone of the PAF.Being a lightweight platform it can be quickly built and deployed.The only disadvantage the jf-17 might have is shorter range,Payload and hardpoints.
I want folks to not loose their peace of mind with rafale.
