60 to 70 per cent manufacturing of the aircraft is being undertaken in Pakistan. Will it take off?

Every where I see Islamic States being supported with military upgrades and supplies, I seem to see Russian and Chinese weapons.
So we are going to counter this by giving weaponry to the Saudi’s?
I think our leaders are incredibly stupid. The Jihad rides a red horse, no need to give them a sports car too.

I wonder how long until some twit makes a comment about “Raptor food.”
I don’t doubt that the JF-17 Thunder has a leg up on the early model F-16s in some areas, but to my knowledge, the JF-17 doesn’t have refueling capability and something of a limited payload. It was my understanding that the F-16s would remain the preeminent fighter of the PAF and the JF-17 would replace the lighter aircraft in the PAF fleet (i.e. Mirages and J-7s).

When I saw the picture, the first aircraft I thought of was the F-4.

a sound fighter aircraft which
in some respects is better than the existing F-16.
