PAKISTAN INTEGRATES JF-17 WITH STAND-OFF RANGE WEAPON (GIDS REK)

sir i have a question. K-8P have 4 hardpoint's under it's wings. each wing can carry 250 kg's load. a single M-81 dumb bomb weigh 119 while adding this Range extension kit it will become 170 kg's. From this seem's that a K-8P "Physically" is able to carry 4 Guided M-81 bomb's.

But is it feasible when we talk in broader context ? both economically and technologically ? Coz if it is, it will be huge boost for forces on our western border. we can save decent amount of money in form of very low operational cost.

4x (119+50)= 680 kg
Remaining 320 kg for 23 mm cannon Pod and rounds under fuselage.


Also, can we guess the price tag of this REK for M-81 or M-82 bomb's ?
If the K-8's hardpoints can take the REK-equipped with MK-81, yes, but I don't think the PAF will be using many MK-81s with the REK. This is probably reserved for MK-82 and MK-83 as stand-off strike (for across the border) is generally reserved for heavyweight warheads. I don't know about cost.

Mate help me understand, how is this "pin-point accuracy" ? If bomb was to his thar target labelled "3", then it is above the target, fine but it may miss hitting it. So how should we interpret this pin-point accuracy?

bhai that was just a BANNER made up of cloth sheet & I don't think you were expecting the thin sheet to be attacked from the 'top' ....

secondly during practice run/ fire demonstration bombs are dropped at target mounds so bhia mere use common sense that SOW attack must be directed at the target mound which you can observe just behind the banner
