If depends on BVR or WVR, depends on the TRW of the JF17's engine. LCA will feel very difficult to deal with JF17 in WVR if LCA doesn't take out JF17 in BVR since JF17 has better arerodynamic fuselage.
Russia will lose more business to USA when time elapses.
It's doomed.
Russian offered China the joint venture development for 5th gen fighter before India had, We just turned it down directly because we had our own plan.
The only part we hold respect for PAKFA is the 117s engine, even that won't last long as WS15 is under test.
Definitely not. At least not involving critical tech like engines and radar. Russia doesn't have more tech reserve to milk India if she sells PAKFA tech to India.But Indians are deluding themselves for believing that Russians will hand over half of the technology on PAKFA just because they pay for half of the development AFTER the plane had start flying.
