    Guys I think we all must restraint from this Fighter Vs Fighter comparison. We all have learned over the years that these comparisons often proved to be nothing informative but leaded to flame wars. So we must stick to Thunders and their capabilities in this threat.

    Peace
    araz, muse, Salahadin and 2 others thanked this.

    Or will be 8 + 12 = 20 planes?

    Now that these babies are being MASS produced will we get new induction reports -

    Ever since last year Pakistan has gone silent on exact number of JF17 Thunders in inventory , I am assuming its for secrecy and advantage may be we have 30 JF 17 Thunders now ???

    What do you guys think ??

    When will we get more Thunders in stock ???
    I hope PAF will get 30 - 40 before 23rd March 2010.

    Nodoubt SU-30 MKI is dangerous and yet we dont have any fighter to counter it.

    My rough estimates of JF-17 (Current Block-1) capabilities is given below.
    ( < means inferior, > means better, = equal, >> much better, << much inferior )

    JF-17 >>> F7P / F7PG
    JF-17 >>> Mig21 Bison
    JF-17 > Mirage 3/5 Rose
    JF-17 >= Mirage 2000 (Air-Air) (Original Configuration)
    JF-17 <= Mirage 2000 (Air-Ground)
    JF-17 >= Mig29 (original configuration)
    JF-17 < Mig29 (current upgraded configuration)
    JF-17 ~= LCA/Tejas
    JF-17 >= F-16 Block 15
    JF-17 ~= F-16 Block 30/40
    JF-17 < F-16 Block 50
    JF-17 << F-16 Block 60
    JF-17 << FC20 (with AESA+Engine upgrades, only if materialize)
    JF-17 << Su27/J11
    JF-17 << F-18 (original)
    JF-17 <<< F-18 (current advanced)
    JF-17 <<< Su30 MKI
    JF-17 <<< Eurofighter/Rafale (latest upgraded configurations)

    Please Correct me if I am wrong

    Regards,
    Sapper
    100&#37; agreed, Pak shld work on engine and radar tomake it more batter.

    100% agreed sir, but I was only comparing specs and technology, the original ability is compareable with the men behind the machines.

    Mig-29 ... ...hmmm? We have several version with very wide range of capabilities. You need to be more specific and say which version you think is comparable to the FC-1.
    Basic original version of Mig-29.

    Thats 400 fighters probably 2/3RDS OF IAF will be one generation newer than JF17 BY 2020.

    The JF17 May become obselete in face of IAF massive Flanker/mmrca programme very quickly.
    Agreed, If IAF would have 230+ SU 30 MKI and 126 MRCA b4 2015, surely they will be superior in technology only by 2015.

    But dont forget PAF is not sleeping. Surely they will come up with counter plans and inductions.

    The F16 like the JF17 is single engine and smaller size. Less powerful radars less load and range. LESS chance of surviving a direct hit.

    But single engines means

    Cheaper to buy and maintain.
    Quicker sortie rates
    one pilot
    LOWER RCS some times.

    Having said this the worlds best ranked fighters are all twin engines.

    F22
    Typhoon/Rafale
    SU35/SU30MKI
    F18S/H F15S
    Wt abt F-35.....its single engine and far batter then Typhoon/Rafale,
    SU35/SU30MKI and F18S/H F15S.

    At the moment , I cant compare F22- with F-35 as both of them are products of lockheed. probabily both would have same capabilities.

    F16 is good platform thanks to APG radar and Amraams.

    But that means nothing to the poor JF17 pilot who has to fly against 400 su30mki and mmrca
    BATMAN wasnt comparing JF-17 , he was saying abt F-16

    Did you flew SU-30 against F-16 at red flag?
    FYI, F-16 is ranked the best fighter and it is proven in battels and mock up excercises.
    Single engine fighters are always the better dog fighters and if equiped with best stand off wepons than twin engine is as much on risk as single engine.

    Some information for you people.

    PAF Peshawar Airbase under the MOB Northern Air Command, Headquarters having No. 36 Wing (Tactical Attack)

    It has 3 Sqn that are No 16 Sqn, No. 26 Sqn and No. 81 Sqn
    First 2 Sqd using A-5 ~ 20 and 22 respectively and last Sqd having 2 Alouette III helos.

    And all of these 42 A5 is first going to be replaced by JF-17 by mid 2010. 1st No 16 Sqn will be replaced by the end of this year as announced by Chief of Air Staff early in this year.

    The initial 50 JF-17 are with basic config ....For later Sqd on other basis JF-17 will be more modernized with western weapons and radars.

    I feel that would be big bang for Peshawar Airbase to move from A5 to latest machine and the pilots wouldnt be using bomber crafts rather they would be using Latest and modern Multi-Role Aircraft.

    Becoz JF-17 has not yet become operational.
