- There is too many ptactical reason couse I really like to see this aircrcaft in Serbian airforces !
- Very interesting, some post above I can exactlly to see my emaili on pictures during acivititis on this forum. On Fanborou 2010 I can anlly say - excelent agillity and manevarbility. Perfect aerodisajn with DSI as we saw on protype 4. Unique disajn and aerodinamic incomoration align whool plain.
- Unique, excellent sollution ! ( I see original compilation of Mirage 2000 and F-20 Tigershark), but have to repeat - DSI is UNIQUE sollutiin and give best pefomanse with great straiks along the wings.
- For my opinion best sollution for Serbian air force! ( Low-lewel attack, interceptor and multirol modern airrcraft ... low visibillity) ! In further upgrating I expext to see better Radar and ECM.
- Visibilibity frombubble cockpit is excelenent ansd allso ergonomy of glasskopit wich is as I saw ELBIT-system.
- Many are sceptic connsidering quality of production. I have to demand all. Final construston, when looking each part of plain is excellent. !
- If I have finall word, witch is best new aircraft for Serbian sky, my answer is without doubt JF-17 blok 2. !
- I*m not sure do I repeat this video where JF-17 show great manevarbility incoporating FBW, HOTAS and FADEC , with ratio weigt/trust 1/1.2 in favour of power.
- Link to god forum about this "little" but POWER bird : ( Almost all pictures, but not all are from Fanborou 2010. with constructive text inside same link ) .
- Verovatno pogled iz tzv. žablje perspektive najbolje pokazuje odlično stopljene DSI usisnike uz produžene strejkove koji daju odličan uzgon. Bubble ( kapljasta kabina)- odlična preglednost i finalna izrada za svaku pohvalu. Zašto su izloženi podvesni opto-targetining-reco - Sapsan, Damocles i sl , najbolje se vidi iz prikaza mok-up sa laserskim podvešenim bombama- verovatno za blok 2. Jedan podrupni i dva podkrrilna rezervoara garanjtuju velik dolet.
i try to keep this thread uptodate and without spams

tit bit............
JFT has been tested in severe EW environment to check its EW suite, this was done along with a Chinese and another (undisclosed) origin EW pod. Also, JFT has powerful internal jammer that worked quite well against F-16 (blk 15) ECM. This occurred few months ago.
Now there is a reason just why jamming the f-16 blk 15's jammer/ ECM, is amazing is because blk 15 also has a multiband jammer i.e., it is able to jam multiple frequencies simultaneously. Blk 15s had the most advanced EW suite in the 80s and a good part of 90s in conjunction with ALQ-131 which is still widely used all around the world and considered to be most reliable, effective jammer ever made, also modular and repeatedly upgraded to V standard, has seen a lot of new advancements. Defeating it is quite an achievement for JFT ECM suite......
jft will be tested against blk 52s too, only then it will have an ECM that will stand against most major EW threats in the region. Itl will be done that is what i am told. On a side note, JFT and J-10 have the same ECM suite and same jammer but a next gen ecm pod is being developed in China which will become a standard fit on all Chinese and PAF JFTs but might not be exported to other countries because of secrecy level...

It was in 1996-97 when China bought a lot of stuff from Israel, among them was EW equipment/ jammers too. China reverse engineered their tech, added their share of optimization and they had a new toy to play with, after 2 years of improvement to hardware and software tweeks, that jammer is known as the KG-300G! For those who think the 8222 jammer is the ultimate jamming tech in sub continent, think again
... Thanks for a gtreat picturs of JF-17 ! Day after tomorow I travell in Paris on great airshow.
I stiil think that is JF-17 best sollution for Serbian airforce.
- Lats compare first disajn and today modern DSI airintake on JF-17 :
jft was planned to fly their however in light of french stepping back from the confirmed deal of missiles for jft , paf has withdrew from the airshow-- howhever pac will have a stall there--
rafale has been shorlisted in the indian mmrca competition and maybe they wouldve provided the rcs of jft to india to win the mmrca deal etc and paf did not want to take the risk , i guess
VITEZFOREVER , have a nice trip to the romantic city of france , plz get some jft photos from the stall if u can!

PARIS: Beating those JF-17 blues
By Greg Waldron
Chinese arms exporter CATIC has received a number of potential customers in its chalet, despite the failure of its flagship export offering, the Chengdu/Pakistan Aeronautical Complex JF-17 fighter, to appear at the show.
"On the first day we have received a number of international visitors at our stand," said CATIC president Ma Zhiping. "We've entertained customers from Africa, the Middle East and Asia. On the first day we had meetings with 10 customers. They were interested in all of our aircraft, including the JF-17."
CATIC is no newcomer to Le Bourget. It first came to Paris in 1987, and 2011 marks its twelfth appearance at the show.
Ma said CATIC had planned to have three Pakistani air force JF-17s in Paris to appear in the static area and perform flying displays. The service is the only current operator of the type. He attributed their absence to the unstable political situation in Pakistan.
However, Ma is confident that the JF-17 will appear at Dubai air show, which runs from 13-17 November.
Citing strong interest in the JF-17 from countries in Africa and the Middle East, he said several countries have had test flights of the low-cost aircraft. A new international buyer for the type is likely to be announced within the next two to three years.
CATIC has, meanwhile, done particularly well with its helicopters. Within the past five years it has signed 30 international contracts for military transport helicopters. Mainly these are light types such as the AC311, but the firm is seeing interest in its large AC313, which has a maximum take-off weight of 13,000kg (28,630lb). Ma said the AC313 has proven effective at operating in high altitudes up to 18,000ft (5,500m), and has received interest from Asian countries.
sto vise informacija dobijam o ovom avionu sve mi se vise svidja.jednostavno za sada ne mogu da mu nadjem manu.odlichan, mozda idealan "ulozeno-dobijeno" odnos,sudeci po fotkama odlicna zavrsna obrada,kokpit veoma slichan Gripenovom,sto je opet odlichno,vidim da se dalje usavrsava,poznajuci Kineze moze da bude samo bolji.pakistanci lete ne stede ga,i gledajuci video klipove ovo se stvarno prelepo da leteti
A sada ce neko odma da ti spomene vek zmaja i da drvi tu na 5 strana...ali za te pare... a i videli smo da to nemora nista puno da znaci kada danas MIG-21 i F-4, F-5. lete.
Nego mene kao i verovatno sve interesuje taj Block II.
Meni su problem ogranicenje od 8g, (mozda Blok II donosi resenje i za to) kao i sto trenutno nemamo pouzdane podatke o elektronici. Blok II deluje solidno u najavi, videcemo sta ce ispasti na kraju.
