What ?

No sir i don't agree

What i and surely others agree on is both of you locked up inside a room with 360 degree full camera coverage for all of us to enjoy the fun

jl115:
How can you make such claims without a shred of evidence?

Secondly, the Jf17 is integrated with Arguably the most advanced short to mid range AAM currently on the market.... But it's not Chinese .....its from that country in the South of Africa you don't like that much.

Honestly, JF 17 Block III will struggle against Rafale. Best to invest in modern highly mobile SAMs to the extent of having capability to move them by heavy choppers for quick set up inside undefended enemy territory
If Cameroon or Niger starts to misbehave, we cant take on France in the air but 3 MI 171s can fly a battery of BUK, Akash, S-300 or S-400 anywhere in W.Africa. As long as there are technicians to errect and calibrate quickly.

jl115:
Rooivalk uses 2X Atlas Topaz turboshaft engines

Built by Atlas(now Denel).....thus from South Africa

jl115:
"Rooivalk Attack Helicopter (AH-2A) is a Denel product. Denel Aeronautics a subsidiary of the Denel is the Design Authority and Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Denel Aeronautics designed, developed, qualified, certified and produced this indigenous system.

As an OEM, Denel Aeronautics continues to be responsible for all the functions on the system"

jl115:
Both the Rooivalk and Oryx were developed at a time when South Africa was heavily sanctioned..... Now we aren't so try again

jl115:
The $40 mil price tag everybody likes quoting is not the actual price but rather the entire R& D cost..... And since only 12 were built the cost per unit is very bloated.

Secondly how is it sanction vulnerable?

seankafor:
I think the jf-17 will be more ideal and suitable in checkmating to our west African neighbouring countries incase they misbehave

Jimi24:
For those of us who really know, Super Tucanoes would be the breakthrough capability in internal security.
Also it will be a cheap workhorse ISR/precision strike platform in one package.

The JF 17 is for regional power projection BUT it will fly too high, too fast and too blind to be useful against Boko Haram or bandits

bidexiii:
12 super tucano
3 jf thunder

A-109K Max no of rockets = 14 rockets

7 rockets each in 2 pods

Incase nobody noticed

There is also the gun pod with integrated 3 rockets

So if using the same ,

2 gun pods + 6 rockets

Seriously doubt Egypt spends that low even though they get funding from other countries.

Jimi24:
So keep telling me $10bn arms procurement budget every year is a good idea.
