Nice images from the China air show... nice to see something Eastern for a change...

That's the first time I've seen pictures of, let alone even heard of, China's J-10 display team.

 

You have to admit a camo refueling probe cover on that bright paint scheme is funny though!

really cool pics...

I'm not sure but the JF-17 reminds of several other jets

Nesher,

 

I was thinking the same thing...it kind of reminds me of the F-16s wings, with the F-20s fuselage, and a Gripen's nose area.

 

Before any fanboys get in an uproar, I'm not implying anything, it would take more work to do such a thing then to just scratch build one...similar missions/requirements can sometimes tend to dictate similar designs.

Yup, and that's you you get the Raptor-ski

The funny thing is how it looks to be a closer relative to the F-5/20 than the F/A-18 is, and that IS an F-5-derived design.

 

Considering how many F-5s are still flying today, though, speaks volumes about the utility of such a design.

Hi,

 

JF-17/FC-1 seems to be a good looking design! Also... air intakes look like F-35 air intakes...

 

Pakistan must have compared JF-17 overall performances with their F-16...

 

... it would be interesting to know this testing!!!

 

Thank you Fam for your pictures and movie.
