　　巴基斯坦改造JF-17战机 为迎合出口需求

　　巴基斯坦空军(PAF)的首批两架(共50架)Block 2 JF-17战机订单-正在由巴基斯坦航空工业公司(位于卡姆拉)负责完成，第一架Block 2 JF-17战机有望于今年年底试飞。

　　与Block 1s 相比，Block 2 JF-17增加了几大功能, 但对于PAF来说，真正的提升在于-空中加油系统的安装，该加油系统的安装还可以激发出口潜力。

　　目前，已有一架飞机配备了加油探头-位于机身右侧紧挨着驾驶舱的位置, 且位于驾驶员的前方。加油探头现只用于飞行试验。

　　然而,在这种折中办法通过飞机制造厂 (AMF)的验证之前，这一修改是不会应用在Block 2战机上的;巴基斯坦空军官员称, 加油设备与Block 2型战机的集成可能在2016年初实现。

　　与软件的改进同时进行的还有其他新特性的增加-包括航电系统的升级工作，这一系统正在与中国南京电子技巧(technology)研究所生产的KLJ-7雷达集成使用。

　　如此一来, 在Block 1s现有装备的基础上， Block 2还可以加装中国设计的C-802反舰导弹和SD-10A超视距空对空导弹;Block 1s现有的装备包括Mk 82/84笨弹或“哑弹”(无极端精确制导系统的导弹或炸弹) 以及PL-5-EII短程空对空导弹。

　　据悉，所有的Block 1战机最终都将升级为Block 2的改进版。

　　由于迫切需要出口JF-17战机,所以-双座设计将被列入Block 2的改造进度表。

　　巴基斯坦空军之前曾表示-双座设计不急着考虑,但空军上尉马歇尔·塔希尔·拉菲克·布特现在承认：双座设计非常必要。

　　“我们意识到这是必需要走的一步, 因为我们希望各国空军都对购买JF-17感兴趣,”他说。

　　目前，即将驾驶JF-17战机的飞行员已经积累大约25小时的飞行小时-在卡姆拉的飞行模拟器上, 这里是巴空军其中一个(共两个)飞行中队的所在地。

　　现在，几乎所有的Block 1战机都已交付PAF, PAF目前要求用150架Block 1取代老化的F-7P和幻影-III / Vs战机。

　　First Block 2 JF-17s under construction in Pakistan

　　Alan Warnes, Islamabad - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly

　　30 June 2014

　　Production of the first two of 50 Block 2 JF-17s on order by the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) is now well under way at the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex, Kamra, with the first expected to fly by the end of the year.

　　The Block 2 JF-17 has several capability increases over the Block 1s, but the main boost to the PAF as well as to export potential is the installation of an air-to-air refuelling system.

　　One aircraft has been fitted with a refuelling probe, which protrudes from the right side of the fuselage just behind the cockpit, sitting forward of the pilot's position. It is being used for flight trials.

　　However, this modification will not appear in Block 2 aircraft until midway through the production at the Aircraft Manufacturing Factory (AMF), probably in early 2016, PAF officials said.

　　Coupled with software enhancements, other new features include an upgrade to the avionics system that works around China's Nanjing KLJ-7 radar.

　　As a result, the Block 2s can add the Chinese-designed C-802 anti-ship missile and SD-10A beyond-visual-range air-to-air missile to the Block 1s' existing armoury, which includes Mk 82/84 dumb bombs and the PL-5-EII short-range air-to-air missile.

　　All the Block 1s will eventually be upgraded with the Block 2 improvements.

　　With an urgent need to export JF-17s, a two-seater will be built in the Block 2 time frame.

　　The PAF had always said that a two-seater is not urgent, but Air Chief Marshal Tahir Rafique Butt now admits that a dual seater is a necessity.

　　"We realise that it is required, because the air forces interested in buying JF-17 want one," he said.

　　PAF pilots currently converting to JF-17 are accumulating around 25 hours on a JF-17 simulator operational at Kamra, where one of the two operational squadrons is based.

　　Nearly all the Block 1s have now been delivered to the PAF, which has a current requirement for 150 to replace the ageing F-7P and Mirage III/Vs.
