The JF-17 Thunder Aircraft. With the start of serial production of the aircraft at PAF Kamra, June 30, 2009 became a Red Letter day in the annals of PAF's chronicles. A lightweight and low-cost multi-role fighter aircraft with high maneuverability and Beyond Visual Range (BVR capability), JF-17 has Mach 1.6 capability with advanced aerodynamics configuration and high thrust. It can operate over long distances and is well suited to undertaking a broad spectrum of offensivernand defensive missions. Fulfilling a multi-role task, this aircraft is meant to eventually replace the ageing fleet of A-5s, F-7s and the Mirages in the PAF inventory, and thus become PAF's mainstay.
