JF-17 - Updates, News & Discussion

[FuturePAF]

If the JF-17 is going to field a Turkish ramjet powered missile how was the seeker integrated into the radar? Also, is the radar capable of using the missile out to its max range (against low RCS targets) or is the tactic to employ the missile in its no-escape zone? Perhaps the missile will have a IR secondary seeker and the JF-17 will employ an IRST pod to maximize long range shots.

Obscure 23-Year Old Navy SAM Was So Ahead Of Its Time That It's Still In High Demand Today

The SM-2 Block IIIB's dual-mode guidance system is still unique among the missiles the Navy's fleet uses to defend against aerial threats.

That all depends on the assumption on the range of the AESA on the JF-17.

We don’t know its exact range even though there is plenty of estimates. After all, if that system is providing range for the PL-15 then perhaps it is capable of providing at range shots for whatever weapon this is.

Although considering the number of projects(Faaz and this) means it’s likely not even meant for the JF-17 but whatever PFX will be and Kaan
