What's new

Unveiling ceremony of 8 dual seat JF-17 Thunder Jets held at PAC Kamra

.
Another great news regarding PAF in a year. First was on 27th of February. Shukar Alhamdulilah. Pakistanis should give sadqa on the behalf of their forces as we know that their are some worst form of black magics across border. These 8 units can play decisive role in an airbattle mashaAllah.

A retired airforce officer once said that you cannot tell or have an idea that what gadgets are hiding inside the chasis of a JF-17 Thunder. It is our aircraft and we can put into it whatever we want.
Sir, what great news from February?
All enemy kills were scored by F-16s and all ground strikes conducted by Mirages.
 
. .
A news channel also reported about inauguration of Avionics Department.
@Pakistan Space Agency Did you find something about it???

The description on YouTube for the above video also states "... The Air Chief Marshal at the avionics production factory at Kamra, inaugurated the integration facility for the JF-17 Thunder dual seater."
 
.
So 12 single seater plus 8 dual and two Pre production dual seaters

That’s 22 new jf so expecting a sqn to be raised /converted plus all existing sqn will get a dual seater assigned as well and ocu getting at least 4
 
. . . .
Dual Seaters for 2019 = 8
(1) 2P-65 B - Video suggests this the first dual seater for 2019 (excluding 17-601)
(2) 2P-66 B
(3) 2P-67 B
(4) 2P-68 B (confirmed as the 4th dual seater already)
(5) 2P-69 B
(6) 2P-70 B
(7) 2P-71 B
(8) 2P-72 B

I am still trying to understand what construction/production number (if any) 17-601 falls under. Was it a prototype?
 
.
Yes, additional order was for 14 and not 12 since 14 is the usual production pattern per year


BTW, they have tried their best to give a bubble canopy vibe. Did anyone else notice ?

Also the single seater latest Block 2s


If that’s the case then they can build around 19-20 per year and that’s a handsome number !!!!
One production line of JF-17 can produce 4 units per year. At maximum we have produced 16 units per year from 4 active production lines. Kamra officials stated this time and again that we can increase the production from 16 to 24 according to our requirements.
