JF-17 - Updates, News & Discussion

[RealNapster]

Fixing Pakistani economy is not a rocket science, it will take few people who are willing to do what it takes. But Establishment has different plans, they want to keep going back to IMF until external loans reaches $500 billion dollars.

Yet it's taking us more then 78 years. Are we looking at it on the human evolution scale because 78 years are not a longer time only if you look at it on evolution scale. Otherwise it's a lot of time to give to something and if you still fails. Then maybe it's not meant to be.

Most rare sentence you will fond on PDF is "I do not know for sure"

Most make out they have access to all the facts, some even imply insider knowledge on almost all developments whilst being based in the US "As I was told on the phone".

You can make your own mind up

I fully understand the feelings and high expectations our Pakistani friends have for the JF-17 fighter jet.

But, we must return to reality. The potential of the JF-17 platform has been almost completely exhausted. Its lifespan is nearing its end.

China, the other owner of the JF-17 brand, has little interest in continuing its development. Therefore, if Pakistan wants to continue developing the JF-17 brand, it needs a very robust and feasible solution. This is currently the biggest challenge.
