Today and quite as a surprise PAC Kamra rolled out the first eight twin seater JF-17Bs, what is an incredible achievement, since all eight were built within only five months.

ok guys count the tyres in the "apparent" 8 line up, its not 8 its actually 10

I count 10 front tyres

also I count 8 x yellow and 2 x grey

I conclude that since 2P-71 was yellow means 2P-72 is also yellow so 8 x yellow primer built in last 5 months at PAC

2 x Grey are the 19-603 and 19-604

plus 2 more from China for ground and flight testing gives 12 x JF17B off course we have Burmas order too

so total PAC built for PAF is 122 units

so 2019 was 8 x JF17B and 2018 was 12 x JF17A Block II

for 2020 I see

14 x JF17B + 2 x JF17A Block III

Wait What?! There's like a 1000 people standing there and they only took one cropped picture?! Those lazy *******s !

Looks like its taxiing to take off. Come on baby, Fly!

p.s. seems like they cropped the pic very tactically to hide the new radome

p.p.s. What is up with that HUD ?

Patience, my friend, all will be revealed in time.
