Russia is seriously concerned over JF-17's take over on MiG-29

JF-17 CHEAP COPY of MiG-29 ?

Yaar, itna bhi similar nahin hai. JF-17 looks more sleek and thin than bulky and comparatively fat Mig-29.
they never said its Copy they are concerned When Countries will buy Jf 17 they will lose their sells

Before that concern, they have specified that JF 17 has good amount of similarities with MiG-29 and that happaned since latter was exported to Chins.
 
Is it the comparison just between two engine and single engine?

What theory or study says twin engine aircraft is superior to single engine?

It depends on what role they were designed. A single engine aircraft like JF-17 is very effective in ground support and point interception. PAF JF-17 also has BVR capability. Its RCS definitely smaller than any Indian aircraft gives it higher advantage.

Just because Indians have MiG-29 doesn't mean its superior. Its a high maintenance aircraft.

As a reminder, 1971 war, a much more modern IAF MiG-21F was downed by an old PAF F-86 Sabre Mk.6.

No matter how advanced your plane is, its the pilot and his capability that makes it an effective fighting machine.

The similarities are Both Fly and Shoot ? is that it
iF you go by this logic whole Jet age is copied of German jets
Jf 17 is a multi role aircraft with 1 engine
whole Mig 29 is air superiority air craft

Old News. RT is equivalent to a tabloid. Those incompetent reporters confused 2 different news items which happened back then and clubbed them together to create a fantasy report. The story goes like this... Pogosyan the head of the UAC officially admitted that J-11 is an close copy of the Su-27 and said the copy could never be as good as the original. In another news item he said because of Russian engines, poor countries may choose the inferior JF-17 over the MiG-29 purely on the basis of costs. The dumbfks at Russia Today(RT) made a kichidi of the 2 news items butchering the content.

RUSSIAN MEDIA, RUSSIAN PLANE, RUSSIAN CLAIM & RUSSIAN CONCERNS.
Why third party's @$$ on fire ?
 
Mig 29 has double the climb rate of JF 17 and 40 % higher speed and more than 50% higher weight load. Mig 29 can mess with best fighters in Dog fight etc. etc.

wiki:
The average rate of climb for a MiG-29 is 109 m/s from sea level to 6000 m

MiG-21 vs JF-17
230 m/s

Even at 300m/s it's NOT Double the climb rate of 254m/s for block 1 JFT, speed does not matter that much even JSF has lower speed, payload is around 25% more not 50% compared to block 1 JFT which is going to change with block 2. Finally and most importantly, in terms of avionics, radar, radar range and weapons it's an even match.
