In Karachi, Pakistan Defense Exhibition on display at the JF-17 "Lightning" (known as the FC-1 "Fierce Dragon") attaches great importance to the remote on the ability to attack, sources in the Pakistan Air Force JF-17 is currently the most important task repeatedly raised improve multi-function performance, especially on the distal end of the air-to-ground strike capability of the ship. Foreign media said the implementation requires more powerful over the remote-to-ship missiles, ship strike capability for deterrence, India's aircraft carrier. It seems that China and Pakistan Air Force attach great importance to air attack aircraft carrier combat, and more remote weapons development for the JF-17.
Canada, "Han and Defense Review" magazine (in advance), in March, it was reported, sources in Pakistan and China, as well as weapons manuals are confirmed for the JF-17 air-to-surface missile developed CM-400AKG. This missile to Mach 5 supersonic attack a range of 200 km. Pakistani sources claimed that the Pakistani side has not purchased the the CM-400AKG, but the next stage will seriously consider imports.
In addition, a noteworthy trend is that once the F -15, F -16 fighter carrying similar to the CM-400AKG as weapons, but also constitute a more serious threat to U.S. aircraft carriers will be similar range of weapons may be farther. The CM-400AKG from the SY-400 surface-to-surface guided rockets, the rockets did not equip the Chinese army.
Defense Exhibition in Karachi on display with the JF-17 fighters with the Brazilian MAR-1 anti-radiation missile. This missile weighs 274 kilograms, 3.9 meters long, the warhead weight of 90 kg, a range of 60 kilometers, the flight speed of 0.5-1.2 Mach, passive homing and active laser fuze.
Pakistan in December 2008 and Brazil signed an agreement of the import of this missile, the number was 100, now mounted by the "Phantom" - III multi-role fighter, the future will be mounted to the JF-17. This JF-17 will need to bring China KG-300 series production of electronic warfare pods, KG-300G is mainly used for airborne radar jammer interference range of 6.5-17.5GHZ weight of 150 kg.
In addition, the latest of the Pakistan Air Force JF-17 manual also includes two new air-to-ground missiles, and also by the JF-17 carrying. "Hate Fu 8 remote on air-to-ground cruise missiles, with a range of 350 km, with a turbofan engine. JF-17 carries a second standoff projection weapons H-4 air-to-surface missile, with a range of 130 km, using GPS / inertial guidance, is said to also conducted several test-fired.
Reported that the missile with the JF-17, together with the description sent on the exhibition means that Pakistan has allowed the JF-17 with the above-mentioned weapons sold together.
These weapons from the quality point of view, this is a leap for the Air Force of the Third World countries, especially in the range of 350 kilometers, "Hate Fu 8 remote on the air-to-ground cruise missiles, China also did not launch similar weapons. Due to the limitations of international treaties, even if exports, Pakistan also need to range reduced to less than 300 km.
The equipment of the Pakistan Ministry of Defense official said, "The Pakistan Air Force's top priority is to improve the JF-17, rather than rush to the import of new fighter". This shows that the F-10 equipment plan is only a medium-and long-term planning, rather than the upcoming completion of the contract. Reported that so far the negotiations about the J-10 did not further the main problem is still the budget.
Reported that armed helicopter is also Pakistan's long-sought project. Pakistan Army has studied China's straight-9E, the latter with Turkey's T-129 helicopter fierce competition in Pakistan. Pakistan once expressed hope that the 15 T-129, but because of budget shortfalls, lack of progress. The straight -10 Straight -19 helicopter gunships, is designed for the Chinese Army, production, production is still insufficient, there is no export rights.
